Description
Sensoranordnung für ein Kraftfahrzeug Sensor arrangement for a motor vehicle
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sensoranordnung für ein Kraftfahrzeug, mit einem an einer Fahrzeugscheibe befestigbaren Halterahmen, mit einem an den Halterahmen anfügbaren mehrteiligen Sensorgehäuse, und mit einemThe invention relates to a sensor arrangement for a motor vehicle, having a holding frame which can be fastened to a vehicle window, having a multipart sensor housing which can be attached to the holding frame, and having a
Spannbügel, der eine Grundfläche und davon seitlich abgewinkelte Rastbügel aufweist, wobei im montierten Zustand die Grundfläche des Spannbügels an einem Sensorgehäuseteil anliegt und die Rastbügel mit dem Halterahmen verbunden sind.Clamp, which has a base and thereof laterally angled locking bracket, wherein in the assembled state, the base of the tension bracket rests against a sensor housing part and the locking bracket are connected to the support frame.
Eine derartige Sensoranordnung ist in der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift DE 101 56 241 A1 beschrieben. Die Sensoranordnung weist ein federelastisches Spannelement auf, das aus einer u-förmigen Blattfeder besteht, dessen Endabschnitte mit einem an einer Fahrzeugscheibe festgelegten Befestigungsring verbunden sind, und der ein dosenförmiges Sensorgehäuse übergreift und an die Fahrzeugscheibe anpresst. Das Sensorgehäuse besteht aus zwei Gehäusehälften, die über angeformte Rastnasen und Rastbügel miteinander verbunden sind. Die Blattfeder ist fest an der Rückseite eines Gehäuseteils fixiert.Such a sensor arrangement is described in the German patent application DE 101 56 241 A1. The sensor arrangement has a resilient tensioning element, which consists of a U-shaped leaf spring whose end portions are connected to a fixing ring fixed to a vehicle window, and which engages over a can-shaped sensor housing and presses against the vehicle window. The sensor housing consists of two housing halves, which are connected to each other via molded locking lugs and locking clip. The leaf spring is firmly fixed to the back of a housing part.
Das Anformen von Rastelementen an Kunststoffgehäuse kann relativ aufwendig sein. Dies ist insbesondere dann der Fall, wenn zur Ausbildung der Rastmittel Hinterschnitte erforderlich sind, die nicht in der Entformungsrichtung angeordnet sind, da hierzu im Kunststoffspritzgießwerkzeug Schieber vorgesehen und betätigt werden müssen. Derartige Rastbefestigungen machen die Gehäuseteile aufwendig und teuer.The molding of locking elements on plastic housing can be relatively expensive. This is particularly the case when undercuts are required for the formation of the locking means, which are not arranged in the Entformungsrichtung, as this provided in the plastic injection mold slide and must be operated. Such snap fasteners make the housing parts consuming and expensive.
Es stellte sich die Aufgabe eine Sensoranordnung, mit einem einfach und kostengünstig herstellbaren Sensorgehäuse zu schaffen, dessen
Gehäuseteile zudem auf besonders einfache Weise miteinander und mit dem Halterahmen zusammenfügbar sind.It was the object of a sensor arrangement to provide a simple and inexpensive to produce sensor housing whose Housing parts also in a particularly simple manner with each other and with the support frame are joined together.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass der Spannbügel mindestens zwei abgewinkelte Federarme mit angeformten Federhaken aufweist, dass die Federhaken mit einem Sensorgehäuseteil verbunden sind und dass die Federhaken in Hinterschnitte des Sensorgehäuseteils greifen.This object is achieved in that the clamping bracket has at least two angled spring arms with molded spring hook, that the spring hooks are connected to a sensor housing part and that the spring hooks engage in undercuts of the sensor housing part.
Vorteilhaft ist, dass der Spannbügel als ein einziges Bauteil sowohl mehrere Sensorgehäuseteile miteinander verbindet, als auch das aus den verbundenen Sensorgehäuseteilen vormontierte Sensorgehäuse an dem Halterahmen befestigt.It is advantageous that the clamping bracket connects both a plurality of sensor housing parts as a single component, as well as the sensor housing preassembled from the connected sensor housing parts attached to the support frame.
Vorteilhaft ist zudem, wenn zur Anbindung der Federhaken an das Sensorgehäuseteil Hinterschnitte verwendet werden, die inIt is also advantageous if undercuts are used to connect the spring hooks to the sensor housing part, the in
Entformungsrichtung des Sensorgehäuseteils angeordnet sind. Derartige Hinterschnitte erfordern insbesondere bei der Herstellung von Spritzgießteilen keinen besonderen Aufwand.Deformation of the sensor housing part are arranged. Such undercuts require no special effort, especially in the production of injection molded parts.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, die an einem Sensorgehäuseteil angeformten Hinterschnitte als Rastösen ausführen.It is particularly advantageous to make the undercuts integrally formed on a sensor housing part as detent eyelets.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung gehen aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen und der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der Zeichnung hervor. Es zeigenFurther advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims and the following description of an embodiment with reference to the drawings.

Figur 2 einen Spannbügel als Einzelteil,FIG. 2 shows a clamping bracket as an individual part,
Figur 3 einen Querschnittsansicht der Sensoranordnung.
Die Figur 1 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf eine Sensoranordnung für ein Kraftfahrzeug. Die Sensoranordnung besteht aus einem Sensorgehäuse 7, welches mittels eines Spannbügels 1 an einem Halterahmen 15 befestigt ist. Im endmontierten Zustand der Sensoranordnung ist der Halterahmen 15 mit einer hier nicht dargestellten Fahrzeugscheibe verbunden.3 shows a cross-sectional view of the sensor arrangement. FIG. 1 shows a plan view of a sensor arrangement for a motor vehicle. The sensor arrangement consists of a sensor housing 7, which is fastened by means of a clamping bracket 1 to a holding frame 15. In the final assembled state of the sensor arrangement of the holding frame 15 is connected to a vehicle window, not shown here.
Das Sensorgehäuse 7 ist zweiteilig ausgeführt und besteht aus einem Sensorgehäusekörper 9, der von einem Sensorgehäusedeckel 8 abgeschlossen ist. Am Sensorgehäusedeckel 8 ist ein Anschlussstück 10 angeformt, welches elektrische Steckkontakte aufweist, über die elektrische oder elektronische Sensorkomponenten im Inneren des Sensorgehäuses 7 elektrisch kontaktiert werden können.The sensor housing 7 is designed in two parts and consists of a sensor housing body 9, which is completed by a sensor housing cover 8. On the sensor housing cover 8, a connecting piece 10 is formed, which has electrical plug contacts, can be electrically contacted via the electrical or electronic sensor components in the interior of the sensor housing 7.
Innerhalb des Sensorgehäusekörpers 9 sind hauptsächlich optische Komponenten angeordnet. Wie die Schnittansicht der Figur 3 zeigt, gehört hierzu insbesondere ein Lichtleitkörper 20 der elektromagnetische Strahlung über einen optischen Koppelkörper 6 in eine nicht dargestellte Fahrzeugscheibe ein- bzw. auskoppelt. Innerhalb des Gehäusedeckels 8 ist ein Schaltungsträger 18 ersichtlich, der hier nicht näher beschriebene elektrische oder elektronische Sensorkomponenten trägt und elektrisch miteinander verbindet.Within the sensor housing body 9, mainly optical components are arranged. As shown by the sectional view of FIG. 3, this includes, in particular, a light-conducting body 20 which couples or decouples electromagnetic radiation via an optical coupling body 6 into a vehicle window (not shown). Within the housing cover 8, a circuit substrate 18 can be seen, which carries unspecified electrical or electronic sensor components and electrically interconnects.
In den Figuren 1 und Figur 3 ist außerdem erkennbar, dass der Sensorgehäusekörper 9 von einem Halterahmen 15 umlaufend umfasst ist.It can also be seen in FIGS. 1 and 3 that the sensor housing body 9 is encompassed by a holding frame 15.
Eine Besonderheit dieser Sensoranordnung ist durch die Form des Spannbügels 1 gegeben, der in der Figur 2 als ein Einzelteil dargestellt ist. Der Spannbügel 1 ist aus einem Blechstreifen geformt und bildet in einem mittleren Bereich eine im wesentlichen ebene Grundfläche 2 aus, in die in Längsrichtung eine schlitzförmige Durchbrechung 16 und in Querrichtung zwei Einprägungen 17 eingebracht sind. An die beiden Endabschnitte an den
Schmalseiten der Grundfläche 2 ist jeweils ein Rastbügel 3 einstückig angeformt, von dem ein erster Abschnitt 23 von der Grundfläche 2 schräg nach oben und ein, auf den ersten Abschnitt 23 folgender längerer zweiter Abschnitt 24 in Gegenrichtung nach unten abgewinkelt ist, so dass sich der zweite Abschnitt 24 etwa senkrecht zur Grundfläche 2 des Spannbügels 1 erstreckt.A special feature of this sensor arrangement is given by the shape of the tension bow 1, which is shown in the figure 2 as a single part. The clamping bracket 1 is formed from a sheet metal strip and forms in a central region of a substantially flat base 2, in the longitudinal direction of a slot-shaped opening 16 and two embossments 17 are introduced in the transverse direction. At the two end sections to the Narrow sides of the base 2, a respective latching clip 3 is integrally formed, of which a first portion 23 of the base 2 obliquely upward and a, on the first portion 23 following longer second portion 24 is angled downward in the opposite direction, so that the second Section 24 extends approximately perpendicular to the base 2 of the tension bow 1.
Neben den relativ breit ausgeführten Rastbügeln 3 sind von die Grundfläche 2 des Spannbügels 1 vergleichsweise schmale Federarme 4 etwa rechtwinklig abgebogen, die an ihren Endabschnitten jeweils einen etwa u-förmig abgewinkelten Bereich aufweisen, der im folgenden als Federhaken 5 bezeichnet wird. Der Endbereich jedes Federhakens 5 bildet eine, gegenüber der u-förmigen Abwinklung noch stärker abgewinkelte Abbiegung 21 aus.In addition to the relatively wide-running locking brackets 3 comparatively narrow spring arms 4 are bent approximately at right angles from the base 2 of the tension bow 1, which at their end portions each have an approximately U-shaped angled region, which is referred to below as spring hook 5. The end region of each spring hook 5 forms a turn, which is even more angled relative to the U-shaped bend.
Die Figuren 1 und 3 zeigen, dass bei der montierten Sensoranordnung der Spannbügel 1 mit den Einprägungen 17 der Grundfläche 2 am Sensorgehäusedeckel 8 anliegt und dass die Rastbügel 3 mit dem Halterahmen 15 jeweils Rastverbindungen herstellen, in dem am Halterahmen 15 angeformte Rastnasen 12 in Ausnehmungen 1 1 der Rastbügel 3 eingreifen.Figures 1 and 3 show that in the assembled sensor assembly of the clamping bracket 1 with the indentations 17 of the base 2 rests on the sensor housing cover 8 and that the locking bracket 3 with the support frame 15 each produce latching connections, in which the holding frame 15 integrally formed locking lugs 12 in recesses. 1 1 of the locking bracket 3 engage.
Die Federarme 4 des Spannbügels 1 erstrecken sich bis zum Sensorgehäusekörper 9, wobei die an den Federarmen 4 einstückig angeformten Federhaken 5 in Rastösen 13 am Sensorgehäusekörper 9 eingreifen. Die Rastösen 13 sind einstückig am Sensorgehäusekörper 9 angeformt, wobei die Aufnahmeöffnungen 19 der Rastösen 13 parallel zur Hauptfläche des Sensorgehäusekörpers ausgerichtet sind. Da die Rastösen 13 keine kompliziert zu formenden Hinterschneidungen ausbilden, können sie auf einfache Weise beim Spritzgießen des Sensorgehäusekörpers 9 mit angeformt werden, ohne dass im Spritzgusswerkzeug die Verwendung von Schiebern erforderlich wäre.
Die Schnittdarstellung der Figur 3 verdeutlicht, dass die Abbiegungen 21 an den Endabschnitten der Federhaken 5 nach dem Einfügen in die Rastösen 13 an Anlageflächen 22 innerhalb der Rastösen13 anliegen. Die Federhaken 5 werden beim Durchgang durch die Rastösen 13 zusammengepresst. Danach weiten sich die Federhaken 5 wieder auf und nehmen die in der Figur 3 dargestellten Lagen relativ zum Sensorgehäusekörper 9 ein.The spring arms 4 of the tension bow 1 extend to the sensor housing body 9, wherein the spring hooks 5 integrally formed on the spring arms 4 engage in detent eyes 13 on the sensor housing body 9. The detent eyes 13 are integrally formed on the sensor housing body 9, wherein the receiving openings 19 of the detent eyes 13 are aligned parallel to the main surface of the sensor housing body. Since the detent eyes 13 do not form complicated undercuts to be formed, they can be formed in a simple manner during injection molding of the sensor housing body 9, without the use of slides would be required in the injection molding tool. The sectional view of Figure 3 illustrates that the bends 21 abut the end portions of the spring hooks 5 after insertion into the detent eyes 13 at contact surfaces 22 within the Rastösen13. The spring hooks 5 are pressed together when passing through the detent eyes 13. Thereafter, the spring hooks 5 widen again and assume the positions shown in FIG. 3 relative to the sensor housing body 9.
Die Federhaken 5 stützen sich hier mit ihrer Abbiegung 21 an der Anlagefläche 22 ab, und blockieren die Federarme 4 widerhakenartig innerhalb der Rastösen 13. Die Federhaken 5 können daher nicht aus der Rastösen 13 herausgezogen werden, es sei denn dass der freie Schenkel des Federhakens 5, etwa mittels eines flachen Stifts, gegen den Federarm 4 gepresst wird. Die Federhaken 5 stellen somit eine feste, jedenfalls nur durch eine vorsätzliche Manipulation wieder lösbare Verbindung, zwischen dem Spannbügel 1 und dem Sensorgehäusekörper 9 her. Der zwischen dem Spannbügel 1 und dem Sensorgehäusekörper 9 angeordnete Sensorgehäusedeckel 8 wird so durch die Grundfläche 2 des Spannbügels 1 gegen den Sensorgehäusekörper 9 gepresst, so dass durch den Spannbügel 1 die beiden Teile des Sensorgehäuses 7 miteinander verbunden sind und der Spannbügel 1 zugleich auf dem Sensor befestigt ist. Das Anbringen des Spannbügels 1 am Sensorgehäuse 7 und die damit bewirkte Verbindung von Sensorgehäusekörper 9 und Sensorgehäusedeckel 8 kann selbstverständlich vor dem Anfügen des Sensorgehäuses 7 an den Halterahmen 15 erfolgen, so dass das Sensorgehäuseteile (8, 9) untereinander und mit dem Spannbügel 1 vormontierbar sind und als vormontierte Baueinheit an den, bereits mit der Fahrzeugscheibe verbundenen Halterahmen 15 angefügt werden kann. Der Spannbügel 1 ermöglicht somit sowohl eine einfache Montage des Sensorgehäuses 7 als auch der gesamten Sensoranordnung.
BezugszeichenThe spring hooks 5 are based here with their turn 21 on the contact surface 22, and block the spring arms 4 barb-like within the detent eyes 13. The spring hooks 5 can not be pulled out of the detent eyes 13, unless that the free leg of the spring hook , For example, by means of a flat pin, is pressed against the spring arm 4. The spring hooks 5 thus provide a firm, in any case only by a deliberate manipulation again releasable connection, between the clamping bracket 1 and the sensor housing body 9 ago. The arranged between the clamping bracket 1 and the sensor housing body 9 sensor housing cover 8 is pressed by the base 2 of the clamping bracket 1 against the sensor housing body 9 so that the two parts of the sensor housing 7 are connected together by the clamping bracket 1 and the clamping bracket 1 at the same time on the sensor is attached. The attachment of the tension bow 1 to the sensor housing 7 and the connection of sensor housing body 9 and sensor housing cover 8 effected thereby can, of course, take place before the sensor housing 7 is attached to the support frame 15, so that the sensor housing parts (8, 9) can be pre-assembled with one another and with the tension bow 1 and can be added as a preassembled unit to the, already connected to the vehicle window holding frame 15. The clamping bracket 1 thus enables both a simple assembly of the sensor housing 7 and the entire sensor arrangement. reference numeral
