Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for automatically correcting the length of cables, in particular for adjusting brake cables or the like from motor vehicles, with a sleeve having a receptacle or the like, a housing or the like and a toothed rack, locking rod, which is displaceably guided in the receptacle or the like, the sleeve having a linkage for a transmitter, such as a lever or the like, and the rod or the like being coupled to a slave via a cable.
- Devices of this type for correcting the length of mechanically flexible remote controls are known in many different ways. They are used to automatically adjust and adjust the length of the cable as soon as elongation due to wear on the braking device or elongation of the cable due to aging occurs. With regard to the function, the known devices have proven their worth. However, it has been shown that the known devices are in need of improvement with regard to the structural design and also with regard to handling, in particular during assembly or removal.
- the invention has for its object to develop a device with the features mentioned in such a way that the constructive structure is simplified and the handling of the device for the purpose of assembly and disassembly is facilitated.
- the device according to the invention has the advantage of a simple structural design, with all the lots present in the system being able to be automatically compensated for when the transmitter is deactivated.
- the locking mechanism has locking segments which are guided in a conical chamber or the like in a sliding manner and are loaded into a locking position with respect to the toothed rack by means of a pretension, for example a compression spring. Due to this configuration, a secure coupling between the sleeve and the rack is guaranteed when the encoder is activated.
- the locking segments have teeth that engage in the toothed rack in the locked position of the locking mechanism. An unintentional transfer of the locking mechanism into the open position when the transmitter is activated is thus reliably avoided.
- a displaceable sleeve is guided between the locking mechanism and a stationary stop on the toothed rack, which sleeve moves the locking mechanism into an open position when the transmitter is deactivated.
- the advantage of this embodiment is, inter alia, that the system of transmitter, cable pulls, device, slave, when the transmitter is deactivated, is open, ie not only shortenable but also extendable. If, for example, when the encoder is activated, the slave side is blocked due to frost, for example, If the transmitter is deactivated and the slave is blocked later, the device is also set in the direction of a virtual extension of the cable, so to speak. This avoids the disadvantage of known adjusting devices, which tend to irreversibly shorten the cable or the system when the slave is blocked, with the result that the device must first be returned to the initial state by hand in order to ensure proper operation To ensure actuation of the system.
- the inner sleeve is screwed with an external thread into an internal thread of the outer sleeve, the locking mechanism being able to be transferred from the locked position into the open position by rotating the inner sleeve.
- a so-called open i.e. there is no system that can be shortened or extended.
- this configuration proves to be advantageous and particularly easy to handle, particularly when the device is expanded, that the inner sleeve with its external thread is only screwed into the outer sleeve with the internal thread until the end face of the inner sleeve blocks the locking segments against the force of the compression spring moves to the open position. Then the rack on the sleeve can be pulled out as far as necessary for disassembly of the device.
- the compression spring iw compressed to a minimum, clamped between the rack and the locking piece.
- the device is extended to a maximum length and the compression spring is compressed to a minimum dimension to allow the device to be mounted on one side with the transmitter and on the other side with the cable on the slave in a simple manner.
- the locking piece is particularly advantageously held by a nipple or the like fixed to the cable, the locking piece being detachable from the nipple, for example, by means of a rotary movement and being displaceable against the stop.
- the locking piece is simply rotated so that it disengages from the nipple and slides over this nipple to the stop due to the action of the compression spring.
- the spring then pushes the locking rod into the sleeve until all of the slacks in the system, particularly on the slave side, have been removed from the cable.
- FIG. 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of the device according to the invention in the delivery state
- Figure 2 shows the device of Figure 1 after loosening the
- Figure 3 shows the device of Figure 2 with activated transmitter
- Figure 4 shows another embodiment of the invention with a so-called open, i.e. not only a shortenable but also an extended system.
- the adjusting device has a bracket 1 or the like, which in the exemplary embodiment selected here is articulated on the transmitter, in particular the actuating lever of the handbrake.
- the articulation is designated by reference number 2.
- the bracket 1 is, for example, inserted in a sleeve 3 with a corresponding recess 4.
- the sleeve 3 has a cone chamber 5, in which locking segments 6 are slidably guided.
- the locking segments 6 are pressed by means of a compression spring 7, which is supported on a shoulder 8 of the sleeve 3, in the locked position with respect to a toothed rack 9.
- the locking segments have locking teeth 10 which, in the locking position, engage the locking segments 6 with the counter teeth 11 of the rack 9.
- the free end of the rack 9 is connected to the cable 12, for example by means of a pressing piece 13.
- a compression spring 15 is inserted between the press piece 13 and a locking piece 14.
- the blocking piece 14 is in turn supported on a nipple 16 which is fixedly connected to the cable 12.
- the locking piece 14 is designed so that it can slide over the nipple 16 by a rotational movement. This is important for the state of delivery of the adjusting device to the belt of the motor vehicle manufacturer, as is described in more detail.
- the setting device has a Sleeve 17 with an external thread, which can be screwed into an internal thread of the sleeve 3 and thereby comes with its front end 18 against the locking segments 6 in order to bring them out of engagement with the rack 9, that is to say into an open position.
- the sleeve 17 has a knurling 20.
- Figure 1 shows the delivery state of the adjusting device on the belt of the motor vehicle manufacturer.
- the adjusting device is extended to its maximum length in order to allow the adjusting device to be mounted on the braking device at one end with the actuating lever and at the other end with the cable 12 in a simple manner.
- the spring 15 is compressed to the smallest dimension, the locking piece 14 being in contact with the nipple 16.
- the locking piece 14 is rotated so that it disengages from the nipple 16.
- the spring 15 relaxes until the locking piece 14 reaches a stop 19 on the vehicle. The spring then moves the locking bar
- FIG. 3 shows the position in which the transmitter has been activated or the actuating lever of the hand brake has been pulled or actuated.
- the locking teeth of the locking segments 6 are pressed into the counter toothing 11 of the rack 9, whereby a positive connection between the sleeve 3, rack 9 and cable 12 is achieved in order to transmit the tensile force to the brake system.
- the cable system In order to be able to remove the cable system with the adjusting device again, the cable system must be brought to maximum length and the rack 9 pulled out of the sleeve 3.
- the sleeve 17 is screwed with its external thread into the sleeve 3 until the end face of the sleeve 17 moves the locking segments 6 against the force of the spring 7 in the direction of the actuating lever, as a result of which the locking teeth 10 of the locking segments 6 become disengaged from the counter teeth 11 Rack 9 arrive, the locking mechanism is moved into the open position and the rack 9 can be pulled out of the sleeve 3.
- the adjusting device acts in the unloaded state or when the encoder is deactivated, i.e. when the handbrake lever is removed, automatically adjusts in the direction of a virtual rope shortening, so to speak.
- the sleeve 17 as a freely displaceable component in the sleeve 3 without an external thread or the like, with a stationary stop 21 on the vehicle side, against which the sleeve 17 with its knurled end face in FIG. 4 when storing or deactivating it of the actuating lever to always bring about an opening of the locking mechanism or the locking segments 6 in this state of the deactivated transmitter or actuating lever.
- the toothed rack 9 is pushed into the sleeve 3 by the spring 12 in order to shorten the cable pull, as in FIG. 2 shown.
- blocking the slave side means that the adjustment device tries irreversibly to additionally shorten the cable system, with the result that the adjustment device only has to be returned to the initial state by hand. This is particularly serious since the driver of the vehicle cannot usually determine whether the braking system is frozen or not in colder seasons.
