Description

  The present invention relates to a door module for a vehicle door according to the premise part of claim 1.

  This type of door module includes an aggregate carrier that holds a functional component of a vehicle door, and at least one guide that is provided on the integrated carrier and guides an adjusted member of the integrated carrier along an adjustment direction. A part.

  A typical door module uses an integrated carrier on which functional components such as a window lift unit, a loudspeaker, a side airbag, and a door lock assembly are installed. Such a unit has been pre-installed with parts, so that it can be not only tested in advance but also easily mounted on the vehicle door. The integrated carrier described herein as part of the window lift unit comprises at least one guide part in the form of a guide rail along which the window glass (the member to be adjusted in this example) is guided, A window glass is movably connected to the integrated carrier through the guide portion.

  There is known a door module for a vehicle door in which an integrated carrier made of a plastic carrier plate is integrally formed with a guide portion made of a guide rail (for example, Patent Document 1). A drive unit for moving the window glass of the vehicle door is disposed on the plastic carrier plate, and the drive unit is connected to the guide rail via the carrier.

  The door module as described above is used in a shape corresponding to the vehicle. In general, the vehicle doors are assembled differently for each vehicle type and its variations, and the structural design and shape are also different, so the shape of the door module, especially the shape of the integrated carrier, must be suitable for each vehicle type and its variations. I must. For example, different vehicle doors have different radii of curvature and different pitch angles (which determine whether the window glass is housed in the vehicle door in a substantially vertical or tilted direction). And a guide unit provided on the integrated carrier is required. This is because the guide portion provided on the integrated carrier must have a radius of curvature and an angular configuration on the integrated carrier that are compatible with the window glass as the member to be adjusted.

German Patent Invention No. 199 44 965

  It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle door with an integrated carrier that can be manufactured easily and inexpensively without requiring substantial structural changes under different conditions.

  The object is achieved by a device having the configuration as claimed in claim 1.

  In the present invention, at least one guide portion is formed so that at least a part thereof can be bent and moved in a direction perpendicular to the adjustment direction with respect to the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier.

  The invention is based on the idea of dividing the integrated carrier into at least one guide part and a rigid part. Along the guide portion, a member to be adjusted such as a window glass is guided. By configuring the guide portion to be bendable and movably connecting the guide portion to the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier, flexibility can be imparted to the inside of the integrated carrier. This flexibility allows the guide portion to be flexibly adapted to the member to be adjusted. The guide part has flexibility at least at a part thereof and is movably connected to the rigid part at least part of the guide part, so that the guide part can be adapted to the member to be adjusted. The radius of curvature of the adjusting member can be matched.

  The door module of the present invention can provide a door module that can be used universally for different vehicle types and various variations thereof. In this door module, when connecting the integrated carrier to the vehicle door, at least one guide portion formed so as to be bendable with respect to the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier is flexibly adapted to the member to be adjusted (especially window glass). Therefore, it is possible to cope with various different conditions.

  Preferably, the at least one guide portion is provided in the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier, and at least a part thereof moves in a direction substantially perpendicular to an extension plane of the integrated carrier with respect to the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier. Possible and / or pivotable about said rigid part. This configuration can be realized by a guide part integrally formed with the rigid body part of the integrated carrier. For example, the at least one guide part is partly integrated with the at least one recess or opening. This can be realized by a configuration separated from the rigid body portion of the carrier.

  The opening for separating the guide portion allows the guide portion to move relative to the rigid body portion in the region separated from the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier. In particular, the guide portion can move vertically with respect to the flatly extending rigid body portion of the integrated carrier by the concave portion or the opening portion. Therefore, the movement path of the adjusted member is determined by the shape and the radius of curvature of the adjusted member. Can be flexibly adapted to.

  The at least one opening provided between the guide part and the rigid body part is formed in, for example, a through slot (groove) shape, and the guide part is partly separated from the rigid body part. In the region where the guide part is not separated from the rigid part, the guide part is connected to the rigid part of the integrated carrier via at least one connecting part. The at least one connecting portion may be formed to be bendable.

  Preferably, the at least one guide portion extends along a longitudinal direction substantially coinciding with a vertical direction of the vehicle in the integrated carrier. In the present invention, the at least one guide part may be connected to the rigid body part of the integrated carrier by an upper connection part and / or a lower connection part, and in the part thereof, the at least one guide part The opening may be separated from the rigid portion of the integrated carrier.

  In the first modification, the guide portion is connected to the rigid body portion by an upper connection portion and a lower connection portion, and is separated from the rigid body portion by an opening located at the center. By such an opening, the guide part connected to the rigid part at both the upper end part and the lower end part is movable with respect to the rigid part in the central region. In this case, the flexibility with respect to the rigid body portion is maximized at substantially the center of the guide portion.

  In the second modification, the at least one guide portion is connected to the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier at the first end portion by a connecting portion, but the second end portion on the opposite side to the first end portion. Then, it is separated from the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier. In this case, the guide portion is connected to the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier only at one end portion, and is separated along the vertical direction at the upper end portion thereof. Have sex. Since the guide portion is cut off without being connected to the rigid body portion at the second end portion, the guide portion has maximum flexibility in the region of the cut off second end portion.

  In the embodiment corresponding to the above-described second modification, the guide portion is separated in the upper region, and thus has the maximum flexibility in the upper region. When the member to be adjusted is a window glass, this configuration is advantageous because the window glass is guided by the door frame and the ceiling of the door frame as usual when the upper region of the guide portion is guided. is there. On the other hand, the window glass when guided in the lower region of the guide portion is present in a region having less flexibility than the upper region of the guide portion, and is thus reliably held by the guide portion and the integrated carrier.

  In a third modification, the at least one guide part is separated from the rigid body part of the integrated carrier by a plurality of openings, whereby the at least one guide part and the rigid body part can be partially bent. It is connected to. That is, a plurality of openings that are independent of each other are provided. The plurality of openings may have different lengths. By providing a plurality of different openings, the moment of inertia of the connecting portion between the guide rail and the rigid portion can be accurately matched and can be changed along the longitudinal direction of the guide portion. Due to the moment of inertia changing in this manner, the connecting portion between the guide portion and the rigid body portion becomes a flexible connecting portion having changing flexibility, and the end of the guide portion on the side firmly connected to the rigid body portion In the transition region between the part and the separated end, it can be adapted to the movement path of the member to be adjusted.

  Since the guide portion and the rigid body portion of the integrated carrier are connected at least partially in a movable and bendable manner, the radius of curvature of the guide portion can be adjusted according to the member to be adjusted. It can be set as a general purpose door module applicable to various vehicles and vehicle types. In the present invention, the radius of curvature of the guide portion is made smaller than the radius of curvature of the rigid portion of the integrated carrier, but may be larger than that in some cases. Further, the integrated carrier may be manufactured in a state where such a guide portion is formed and supplied in that state. Alternatively, the integrated carrier may be formed as an integral part made of, for example, plastic or metal having a uniform curvature and radius of curvature, and then adjusted according to the conditions of a specific member to be adjusted.

  In order to adapt the guide part to a specific adjusted member, an adapter piece separate from these may be arranged in the region of the opening between the guide part and the rigid part. In the present invention, the adapter piece may set the radius of curvature of the guide part and / or the offset with respect to the rigid part, for example, by compressing the guide part with respect to the rigid part. The adapter piece may be made of plastic, for example, and may be inserted into the opening to compress and bend the guide portion, thereby setting the radius of curvature of the guide portion and / or the offset of the guide portion as desired.

  By fixing the accumulation carrier to the door inner panel of the vehicle door, the curvature radius of the guide portion of the accumulation carrier and the offset of the guide portion with respect to the rigid body portion may be set. In this case, the door inner panel provided with the fixing portion can set the radius of curvature of the guide portion and the offset with respect to the rigid portion by compressing the guide portion when the guide portion is fixed to the door inner panel, for example. . In this way, the radius of curvature of the guide part can be adapted to the rigid body part of the integrated carrier.

  In addition to the above configuration or as a modification, in order to adjust the radius of curvature of the guide portion along the longitudinal direction, tension means is provided between both end portions of the guide portion and can be bent at least partially. The guide portion may be bent by applying tension to the guide portion.

  For example, in order to reliably slide the adjustable member along the guide portion with a carrier or the like that connects the adjusted member to the guide portion, for example, a formed part formed as a plastic extrudate is used. It may be provided and disposed in an adhesive state on the guide part. By filling the opening with the formed component, the member to be adjusted can be guided along the guide portion across the opening.

  In an advantageous embodiment, the integrated carrier comprises two guide parts along which a carrier for guiding the member to be adjusted is guided. The carrier has a role of connecting the member to be adjusted to the guide portion, and may be formed as a plastic part capable of sliding guide (sliding guidance), for example. By using the two guide portions, it is possible to provide a two-path type cable type window lifter that guides a member to be adjusted in the form of a window glass as desired along the two guide portions.

  The configuration underlying the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

  FIG. 5 shows a vehicle door 1 that has a door outer panel 11 and a door inner panel 12 and is mounted on the vehicle as a front side door. The vehicle door has a door frame 14 on the upper side. The door frame 14 extends from the door body formed by the door outer panel 11 and the door inner panel 12 and surrounds the window opening 15. A collision barrier 13 that receives and absorbs the collision force when the vehicle door 1 is collided from the lateral direction is disposed toward the outside of the vehicle door 1.

  In the opening space 120 of the door inner panel 12, an integrated carrier 2 that holds and / or accommodates functional components of the vehicle door 1, particularly a window lift unit, a door lock assembly, a side airbag, and the like is installed. . The integrated carrier 2 may be made of metal or plastic.

  6A to 6D are diagrams showing the integrated carrier 2. In the illustrated embodiment, the integrated carrier 2 includes a drive unit 23, deflection units 251 to 254, carriers 31, 32, and guide units 21, 22 as components of a window lifter. The guide portions 21 and 22 serve as guide rails for guiding the carriers 31 and 32, and are integrally formed as an integrated product with the integrated carrier 2. The number of guide portions may be one. The window lifter is formed as a two-path cable-type window lifter that adjusts a window glass that is a member to be adjusted and closes the window opening 15. Therefore, it is only necessary that at least one guide portion is provided on the integrated carrier 2 and guides the member to be adjusted along the adjustment direction W of the integrated carrier 2. The drive unit 23 includes a cable drum 230 (see FIGS. 6A and 6B) provided on the side of the integrated carrier 2 facing the wet area N of the vehicle door 1. The cable drum 230 is driven by a motor driving unit 231 (FIGS. 6C and 6D) provided in the dry space T of the vehicle door 1.

  The drive unit 23 is connected to the carriers 31 and 32 via the traction means 24, and is connected to the window glass via the carriers 31 and 32. The pulling means 24 extends from the cable drum 230 of the drive unit 23 toward the upper deflection unit 251 located in the vicinity of the guide unit 21, from there to the lower deflection unit 252, and from there to further near the guide unit 22. By returning to the drive unit 23 through the upper deflector 253 located and through the lower deflector 254, a closed loop of the cable is formed. During the operation of the window lifter, the cable drum 230 is rotated by the drive of the motor drive unit 231, whereby one end of the traction means 24 is wound around the cable drum 230 and the other end is unwound from the cable drum 230. . As a result, the traction means 24 is displaced, and the adjusting force is transmitted to the carriers 31 and 32 via the traction means 24. By moving the pulling means 24, the carriers 31 and 32 move along the adjustment direction W, and the window glass also moves along the adjustment direction W via the carriers 31 and 32.

  The integrated carrier 2 can be connected to the door inner panel 12 via a fixing part 200 located in an upper region of the integrated carrier 2 and deflecting parts 252 and 254 which are also located in a lower region and also serve as a fixing part. For this purpose, a fixing bolt 201 is inserted into the fixing portion 200, and a fixing bolt 202 is inserted into the fixing portions of the deflecting portions 252 and 254, thereby engaging with the door inner panel 12.

  The window glass is formed in various shapes according to different vehicle types and variations. As shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, the window glass 150 has specific curvature radii R1 and R2 according to the shape of the vehicle door 1, for example. The curvature radii R1 and R2 are different for each vehicle door 1. The curvature radii R1 and R2 of the window glass 150, that is, the arc defined by the curvature radii R1 and R2, is when the window glass 150 is taken in and out from the door inner space formed by the door outer panel 11 and the door inner panel 12. A moving path F in which the window glass 150 is driven is formed.

  As schematically shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, if the window glass 150 is different, the pitch angles β1 and β2 that determine the direction of the movement path F are also different. The pitch angles β1 and β2 determine, for example, whether the window glass 150 is driven so as to fit in the vehicle door 1 in a substantially vertical direction or in a tilted direction in the vehicle door.

  The guide portions 21 and 22 of the integrated carrier 2 are also designed according to the curvature radii R1 and R2 and the pitch angles β1 and β2 of the window glass 150. The curvature radii and angular alignment of the guide portions 21 and 22 The glass 150 is adapted to the radii of curvature R1 and R2 and the pitch angles β1 and β2.

  In order to provide the integrated carrier 2 including the guide portions 21 and 22 that can be used as a general-purpose product at low cost for different vehicle types and various variations, in the present invention, at least a part of the guide portions 21 and 22 is provided. Is formed so as to be bendable and movable in a direction perpendicular to the adjustment direction W with respect to the rigid body portion 20 of the integrated carrier 2 (particularly, at least a part of the rigid body portion 20 is in the extending plane of the integrated carrier 2). It is possible to move in the substantially orthogonal Y direction). In other words, the guide parts 21 and 22 have flexibility in a direction perpendicular to the adjustment direction W with respect to the rigid body part 20.

  FIG. 1 schematically shows a first example of an integrated carrier 2 according to the present invention, and FIG. 9 shows a detailed embodiment thereof. The integrated carrier 2 includes two guide portions 21 and 22. These two guide portions 21 and 22 are provided substantially perpendicular to the side portion on the integrated carrier 2 (particularly, extending along the Z direction which is the longitudinal direction of the integrated carrier 2). It serves to guide the two carriers 31 and 32 that adjust the window glass 150. The guide parts 21 and 22 are connected to the rigid body part 20 of the integrated carrier 2 by the lower connecting part 211b and the upper connecting part 211a, the lower connecting part 221b and the upper connecting part 221a, respectively, and The integrated carrier 2 is separated from the rigid body portion 20 by recessed or penetrating slot (groove) -shaped openings 210 and 220, and the guide portions 21 and 22 are flexibly connected. That is, the guide parts 21 and 22 are movable with respect to the rigid body part 20 of the integrated carrier 2 in the separated region.

  The integrated carrier 2 may have an arbitrary shape, for example, a substantially rectangular shape as shown in FIG. 1, or, for example, as shown in FIG. The carrier plate may have a shape suitable for installing the window lifter. Further, the integrated carrier 2 may hold only the window lifter, but may also hold other functional components of the vehicle door in addition thereto.

  The integrated carrier 2 of FIG. 9 is shown with no components arranged. The fixing unit 250 is provided to arrange the deflecting units 251 to 254 on the integrated carrier 2, respectively. The integrated carrier 2 is connected to the door inner panel 12 via the fixing part 200 and the lower fixing part 250.

  The guide portions 21 and 22 are provided with an assembly opening 26 for performing an operation of fixing the window glass 150 to the carriers 31 and 32.

  The integrated carrier 2 may be made of plastic or metal. For example, the integrated carrier 2 is made of a steel panel (steel plate), and the guide portions 21 and 22 are formed together with the rigid portion 20 as an integrated product of the integrated carrier 2.

  The guide parts 21 and 22 can be bent by being partly separated from the rigid body part 20 of the integrated carrier 2, and in particular can be bent in the Y direction corresponding to the lateral direction of the vehicle. Since the guide portions 21 and 22 are connected to both upper and lower sides by the connecting portions 211a and 211b and the connecting portions 221a and 221b, respectively, the bending amount (flexibility) is maximized in the central region. Specifically, the guide portions 21 and 22 can move a relatively large distance in the center thereof in a direction orthogonal to the rigid body portion 20 of the integrated carrier 2. The guide portions 21 and 22 can be adapted to the movement path F of the window glass 150 due to its flexibility, and can flexibly form the path according to the shape of the window glass 150.

  The lengths of the openings 210 and 220 may be selected to be different from each other. In particular, by setting the openings 210 and 220 to be short without excessively extending downward, the lower connecting portions 211b and 221b are widened, and the guide portions 21 and 22 are strengthened in the lower region. You can also By making the lengths of the opening portions 210 and 220 corresponding to the guide portions 21 and 22 located on each side of the two sides different from each other, different flexible guide portions 21 and 22 are provided. It may be formed.

  The integrated carrier 2 is installed on the door inner panel 12 so as to conform to the pitch angles β1 and β2 of the window glass 150. Thereby, it can respond also to different pitch angles (beta) 1, (beta) 2. In this case, the arrangement of the guide portions 21 and 22 is defined by the moving direction determined by the pitch angles β1 and β2.

  FIG. 2 schematically shows a second modification of the integrated carrier 2, and FIG. 10 shows a detailed embodiment thereof. Unlike the example of FIG. 1 or FIG. 9, the guide parts 21 and 22 in this embodiment are connected to the rigid body part 20 of the integrated carrier 2 only at the first end part by only the lower connection parts 211b and 221b. Each guide part 21, 22 is separated from the rigid part 20 of the integrated carrier 2 by a single opening 210 ′, 220 ′ at a second end opposite to the first end. That is, the slot-shaped openings 210 ′ and 220 ′ extend to the upper edge of the integrated carrier 2 above the connecting portions 211 b and 221 b along the longitudinal direction of the guide portions 21 and 22.

  By completely separating the upper ends of the guide portions 21 and 22 by the openings 210 ′ and 220 ′, flexibility can be given to the guide portions 21 and 22, particularly the upper end portions of the guide portions 21 and 22. Since the guide portions 21 and 22 are movable at a relatively large distance with respect to the rigid body portion 20 of the integrated carrier 2 at the upper end portions thereof, the guide portions 21 and 22 are particularly adaptable to the moving path F of the window glass 150 in the upper region. .

  In the embodiment schematically shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, guide portions 21 and 22 are provided inside the flatly extending integrated carrier 2, and the guide portions 21 and 22 have two openings 210a, 210b and the openings 220a and 220b.

  In FIG. 3, the guide portion 21 located on the left side of the integrated carrier 2 is separated from the rigid body portion 20 surrounding the guide portion 21 by openings 210 a and 210 b, and the guide portion 21 is separated from the rigid body portion 20. The upper connecting portions 211aa and 211ab and the lower connecting portions 211ba and 211bb are connected. In the figure, the guide portion 22 located on the right side of the integrated carrier 2 is separated from the rigid body portion 20 surrounding the guide portion 22 by openings 220 a and 220 b, and the guide portion 21 is separated from the rigid body portion 20. The upper connecting portions 221aa and 221ab and the lower connecting portions 221ba and 221bb are connected.

  On the other hand, the guide portion 21 in the embodiment of FIG. 4 is separated from the rigid portion 20 by openings 210 ′ a and 210 ′ b extending toward the upper edge portion of the integrated carrier 2. The guide part 21 is connected to the rigid part 20 only by connecting parts 211ba and 211bb below the guide part 21. Similarly, the guide portion 22 in the embodiment of FIG. 4 is separated from the rigid portion 20 by openings 220 ′ a and 220 ′ b extending toward the upper edge of the integrated carrier 2. The guide part 22 is connected to the rigid part 20 only by connecting parts 221ba and 221bb below the guide part 22.

  In other modified examples of the integrated carrier 2 shown in FIGS. 11A to 11C, the integrated carrier 2 is provided with openings 210 ″ and 220 ″ for separating the upper ends of the guide portions 21 and 22. However, unlike the embodiment of FIG. 10, a plurality of openings 210a ''-210c '' in the form of slots between the upper openings 210 '', 220 '' and the lower coupling parts 211b, 221b. , 220a ″ to 220c ″. The plurality of openings 210a ″ to 210c ″ and 220a ″ to 220c ″ have different lengths, and guide portions 21 and 22 are separated from the rigid body portion 20 of the integrated carrier 2 in the lower region. Partially separated.

  By providing a plurality of openings 210a ″ to 210c ″ and 220a ″ to 220c ″, the moment of inertia of the connecting portion between the guide portions 21 and 22 and the rigid body portion 20 is reduced to the lower region of the guide portions 21 and 22. And the flexibility of the guide portions 21 and 22 can be adjusted so as to change along the longitudinal direction of the guide portions 21 and 22 in the lower region. The guide portions 21 and 22 can be bent mainly in the bending direction M1 in the upper region thereof, that is, in the separated upper end portion, and the lower openings 210a ″ to 210c ″ and 220a ″ to 220c. In the region ″, there is flexibility mainly along the bending direction M2. The flexibility of the guide portions 21 and 22 decreases in the lower region, but can be adjusted as desired by adjusting the openings 210a "to 210c" and 220a "to 220c". Such flexibility allows the guide portions 21 and 22 to be adapted to the movement path F of the window glass 150.

  As shown in FIGS. 11B and 11C, the carrier 31 surrounds the guide portion 21. As shown in FIG. 11C, the guide portion 21 can be bent with respect to the rigid body portion 20 and can be adapted to the moving path F of the window glass 150. In this way, the movement path F of the carrier 31 can be shifted in the Y direction, and a state in which the angular position matches the angular position of the window glass 150 can be maintained.

  12A and 12B show still another modified example of the integrated carrier 2. 12A and 12B, the upper ends of the guide portions 21 and 22 are separated by the openings 210 ′ ″ and 220 ′ ″, but these openings 210 ′ ″ and 220 ′ ″.
