Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for opening and closing a flap for a motor vehicle mounted along one of its edge areas to a stationary structural component so as to be swivelable around a horizontal swiveling axis.
  • the flap is driven by a first drive device and a second drive device acting in concert so as to be movable from a closed position into an open position, wherein the first drive device is an electromechanical drive device and the second drive device is a hydraulic, pneumatic, or hydropneumatic drive device.
  • Opening and closing systems for vehicle flaps are known for opening and closing flaps such as hatchbacks, trunk lids, engine hoods, doors, and the like in motor vehicles. Often, both sides of the flap are driven electromechanically so as to prevent warping of the flaps when the flaps are open and closed.
  • Some drive systems are used that drive the flaps electromechanically on only one side, while a gas spring is arranged at the other side of the flap.
  • the gas spring counterbalances the weight of the flap by substantially supporting only the opening of the flap.
  • An opening and closing system of this kind is generally better than the variant that is driven electromechanically on both sides and is therefore preferred for installation in most applications.
  • the electromechanical drives are outfitted with pressure springs, typically embodied as helical pressure springs, which must counterbalance the weight of the flap so that the motor has reasonable dimensions in terms of the vehicle construction and the flap can be safely held in a partially closed position or in the completely open position.
  • pressure springs typically embodied as helical pressure springs
  • the first drive device is a non-self-locking drive device and the second drive device comprises a cylinder that is filled with a fluid under pressure and whose closed first end is connected to the stationary structural component part or flap at a distance from the swiveling axis.
  • the interior of the second device is divided by a piston into a first work chamber and a second work chamber, wherein a one-sided piston rod of the piston is guided outward through the first work chamber and out of the first work chamber so as to be sealed by a sealing and guiding package and is connected to the flap or stationary structural component part at a distance from the swiveling axis, with a valve arrangement by which a flow connection between the first work chamber and the second work chamber is closed in a stationary operating state of the flap.
  • the flow connection between the first work chamber and the second work chamber is opened during a movement of the flap so that a fluid balance is achieved between these two work chambers.
  • the first drive device is preferably arranged at a first edge area of the flap and the second drive device is preferably arranged at a second edge area of the flap, which proceeds at least approximately at right angles from the swiveling axis.
  • This configuration limits warping of the flap due to an imbalanced application of force.
  • the flap can be a hatchback, a trunk hood, engine hood, or the like in the motor vehicle.
  • the flap is preferably supported along its upper edge area so as to be swivelable around the swiveling axis and is directed substantially perpendicularly downward in the closed position and substantially horizontally in the open position.
  • the first drive device has a spindle drive driven in rotation by a rotary drive and which has a threaded spindle that is connected to the flap or to the stationary structural component part, and a spindle nut that is arranged on the threaded spindle that is connected to the stationary structural component part or to the flap.
  • the threaded spindle is driven in rotation by the rotary drive by a non-self-locking gear unit. Due to the non-self-locking construction of the gear unit, as well as the non-self-locking construction of the entire drive device, the flap is easily moved by hand when the first drive device is not activated.
  • the rotary drive is preferably an electric motor.
  • a spindle tube preferably encloses the threaded spindle with play and is connected to the spindle nut by its axial end that is closer to the rotary drive and can be articulated at the stationary structural component part or the flap by its end remote of the rotary drive.
  • the protective tube is arranged so as to be displaceably guided on the end area of the tubular housing remote of the rotary drive and is connected to the spindle nut and articulated at the stationary structural component part or flap by its end remote of the rotary drive, the part of the system that is movable in a telescoping manner relative to the tubular housing is also externally protected.
  • the second drive device is a gas spring and the first work chamber and second work chamber are filled with a gas under pressure.
  • the gas acting upon the larger effective surface of the piston generates the push-out movement of the piston rod.
  • a piston rod extension extends farther in the direction of the first end of the cylinder, opposite the end of the piston rod located in the cylinder.
  • the piston is arranged coaxial to the cylinder.
  • a second piston is preferably arranged at the end of the piston rod extension.
  • the second piston is a mirror image of the first piston.
  • the two pistons have a closing spring with identical or different spring forces.
  • the cylinder of the second drive device has a flexible wall, particularly a dividing piston that is axially displaceable in the cylinder so as to be sealed. This defines a partial space between the closed end of the cylinder and the second work chamber in the cylinder.
  • the partial space is filled with a gas under pressure, and the first work chamber and second work chamber are filled with an incompressible fluid, preferably an oil.
  • the flexible wall holds the fluid under pressure in the second work chamber in conjunction with the gas that is under pressure to generate the push-out movement of the piston rod by the greater effective surface of the piston.
  • the valve arrangement has a closing valve with a valve element by which three switching positions can be occupied, wherein, proceeding from a middle closed switching position, a first opening position can be occupied by the valve element in one direction and a second open position can be occupied by the valve element in the other direction.
  • the valve arrangement has an electrically controllable magnetic valve, wherein the magnetic valve is powered on to open the flow connection between the first work chamber and the second work chamber by controlling the first drive device for the flap adjustment.
  • the valve arrangement can be arranged at any suitable location of the second drive device.
  • valve arrangement When the valve arrangement is arranged in or at the piston, installation space is minimized.
