Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Tankdeckel-Schloß-Kombination mit einem durch Schlüssel zu betätigenden Schließzylinder mit Zylinderkern, durch den ein Riegel bewegbar ist.The present invention relates to a fuel cap and lock combination with a key-operated lock cylinder with a cylinder core through which a bolt can be moved.

Bekannte Tankdeckel müssen von dem Tankstutzen abgeschraubt bzw. gedreht werden, um dann abgehoben zu werden. Wird der Deckel nach dem Tanken wieder aufgesetzt so bildet er nur dann einen festen Verschluß nachdem er gedreht und insbesondere durch Schlüssel verriegelt wurde.Known fuel caps have to be unscrewed or turned from the tank neck in order to then be lifted off. If the lid is put back on after refueling, it will only form a firm closure after it has been turned and locked in particular by a key.

Aus der DE-A-3 301 072 ist ein Tankdeckel mit Zylinderschloß bekannt. Dieser Tankdeckel wird direkt am Rand der Einfüllmulde verrastet.From DE-A-3 301 072 a tank cap with a cylinder lock is known. This fuel cap is snapped into place right at the edge of the filling trough.

Die Merkmale des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 sind aus diesem Dokument bekannt. Ferner sind aus der US-A-2 379 810 und der US-A-2 262 946 Schlösser an sich bekannt, die einrastend verschließbar sind, ohne den Schlüssel betätigen zu müssen.The features of the preamble of claim 1 are known from this document. Furthermore, from US-A-2 379 810 and US-A-2 262 946 locks are known per se, which can be locked in place without having to operate the key.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Deckel zu schaffen, der mit Hilfe einfacher, sicherer, wirkungsvoller und wirtschaftlicher Mittel ohne Schlüssel verriegelbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a cover which can be locked without a key with the aid of simple, safe, effective and economical means.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß im feststehenden Gehäuse des Deckels eine Klappe schwenkbar gelagert ist, die durch den Riegel in der geschlossenen Stellung gehalten wird, daß der Riegel gegen Rückstellmittel insbesondere in Form einer Feder verschiebbar ist und eine Schulter aufweist, die mit einem mit einem Drehknopf drehfest verbundenen Nocken zusammenwirkt, um den Riegel gegen die Wirkung der Rückstellmittel in Öffnungsstellung zu bringen, wobei auf dem Drehknopf der mit Verriegelungselementen versehene Schließzylinderkern befestigt ist und der Drehknopf eine Verriegelungswinkelstellung einnehmen kann, in welcher die Verriegelungselemente unter der Wirkung von elastischen Mitteln in Verriegelungsstellung gebracht werden und der Nocken den Riegel blockiert.This object is achieved in that a flap is pivotally mounted in the fixed housing of the cover, which is held by the bolt in the closed position, that the bolt is movable against restoring means in particular in the form of a spring and has a shoulder with a interacts with a rotary knob non-rotatably connected cams to bring the bolt against the action of the restoring means in the open position, wherein the locking cylinder core provided with locking elements is attached to the rotary knob and the rotary knob can assume a locking angle position in which the locking elements under the action of elastic means be brought into the locking position and the cam blocks the bolt.

Eine Ver- und Entriegelung ist damit unabhängig vom Verschließen mit Hilfe eines Schlüssels möglich, auch wenn der Riegel mit dem Schloß kombiniert ist. Wesentlich ist, daß das Deckelgehäuse an der Karosserie des Kraftfahrzeuges fest ist und der Deckel eine Klappe enthält, die festrastbar ist ohne den Schlüssel benutzen zu müssen.Locking and unlocking is therefore possible regardless of locking with the help of a key, even if the bolt is combined with the lock. It is essential that the cover housing is fixed to the body of the motor vehicle and the cover contains a flap that can be locked without having to use the key.

Bei Schlössern mit Plättchenzuhaftung dienen die Federn der Plättchenzuhaltung als elastische Mittel, während bei Schlössern mit Stiftzuhaltung die elastische Mittel von den Federn der Stiftzuhaltung des Stators gebildet werden.In the case of locks with plate tumbler, the springs of the plate tumbler serve as elastic means, while in the case of locks with pin tumbler the elastic means are formed by the springs of the pin tumbler of the stator.

Zur Erläuterung der Erfindung wird auf die nachfolgende Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels unter Hinweis auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen verwiesen, in welchen folgendes dargestellt ist:

  • - In Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht auf einen mit einem erfindungsgemäßen Schloß versehenen Schwenk-oder Klappdeckel.
  • - In Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht auf den in Fig. 1 gezeigten Deckel nach Abheben des Betätigungsknopfes und des Deckels.
  • - In Fig. 3 eine Schnittdarstellung in der Ebene 111 - 111 nach Fig. 1.
To explain the invention, reference is made to the following description of an embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the following is shown:
  • - In Fig. 1 is a plan view of a pivot or hinged lid provided with a lock according to the invention.
  • - In Fig. 2 is a plan view of the lid shown in Fig. 1 after lifting the operating button and the lid.
  • 3 shows a sectional illustration in the plane 111-111 according to FIG. 1.

In dem beschriebenen Beispiel besteht das Schloß aus einem festen Gehäuse 1 mit einer darin auf einer Achse 3 schwenkbar gelagerten Klappe 2, die durch eine Torsionsfeder 4 in Öffnungsstellung bewegt wird. In der Klappe 2 wird ein Riegel 5 unter dem Druck einer Spiraldruckfeder 6 in Schließ- oder Verriegelungsstellung geschoben. Ein mit einem Lamellenzylinder 8 fest verbundener Bund 7 ist in der Klappe 2 angeordnet und durch einen Deckel 9 verschlossen. Der Bund 7 und der Zylinder 8 sind zum Drehen durch einen Betätigungsknopf 10 fest miteinander verbunden. Das Gehäuse 1 ist mit einer Schraube 11 auf einem Sockel befestigt.In the example described, the lock consists of a fixed housing 1 with a flap 2 pivotally mounted therein on an axis 3, which is moved into the open position by a torsion spring 4. In the flap 2, a bolt 5 is pushed under the pressure of a spiral compression spring 6 in the closed or locked position. A collar 7 firmly connected to a lamellar cylinder 8 is arranged in the flap 2 and closed by a cover 9. The collar 7 and the cylinder 8 are firmly connected to each other for rotation by an actuating button 10. The housing 1 is fastened to a base with a screw 11.

Der Riegel 5 weist einen Ausschnitt 12 auf, in welchem der Bund 7 sich dreht. Der Ausschnitt 12 ist mit einem Ansatz 13 versehen, mit welchem ein mit dem Bund 7 fest verbundener Wulst oder Nocken 14 zusammenwirkt, wenn der Knopf 10 aus der Schließstellung F in die Öffnungsstellung O gedreht wird, um den Riegel 5 gegen den Druck der Feder 6 zu verschieben und dadurch das Schloß zu öffnen sowie um die Klappe 2 unter der Einwirkung ihrer Feder 4 auszuschwenken.The bolt 5 has a cutout 12 in which the collar 7 rotates. The cutout 12 is provided with a projection 13 with which a bead or cam 14, which is firmly connected to the collar 7, cooperates when the knob 10 is turned from the closed position F into the open position O, around the bolt 5 against the pressure of the spring 6 to move and thereby open the lock and to pivot the flap 2 under the action of its spring 4.

Der Ausschnitt 12 weist eine diametrale Verengung 15 auf, mit welcher der Wulst oder Nocken 14 in einer Verriegelungs-Winkelstellung V des Betätigungsknopfes 10 (Fig. 2) zusammenwirkt, um den Riegel 5 in Schließstellung festzuhalten.The cutout 12 has a diametrical constriction 15 with which the bead or cam 14 cooperates in a locking angular position V of the actuating button 10 (FIG. 2) in order to hold the bolt 5 in the closed position.

In dieser Winkelstellung V hat der Zylinder 8 eine Lage eingenommen, in welcher seine Plättchenzuhaltungen den in die Klappe 2 eingearbeiteten Nuten oder Rillen gegenüberliegen. Unter dem Druck ihrer Rückholfedern greifen die Plättchenzuhaltungen in diese Nuten oder Rillen ein und verriegeln den Zylinder 8 gegen Drehen. Der Bund 7 und der Knopf 10, beide mit dem Zylinder 8 verbunden, sind dann ebenfalls unbeweglich gemacht.In this angular position V, the cylinder 8 has assumed a position in which its plate tumblers lie opposite the grooves or grooves machined in the flap 2. Under the pressure of their return springs, the plate tumblers engage in these grooves or grooves and lock the cylinder 8 against rotation. The collar 7 and the button 10, both connected to the cylinder 8, are then also immobilized.

Zum Entriegeln (Aufschließen) des Schlosses muß der passende Schlüssel in den Zylinder 8 gesteckt und gedreht werden, wodurch die Plättchenzuhaltungen in den Zylinder 8 zurückgezogen werden und die drehbare Baugruppe 7, 8, 10 freikommt. Jetzt kann der Knopf 10 in die Stellung F gedreht und der Schlüssel abgezogen werden. Die Lamellen des Schloßzylinders 8, die mit den Verriegelungsnuten oder -rollen nicht mehr in Eingriff stehen, stehen der Drehung nicht mehr hindernd im Wege.To unlock (unlock) the lock, the appropriate key must be inserted into the cylinder 8 and turned, whereby the plate tumblers are retracted into the cylinder 8 and the rotatable assembly 7, 8, 10 is released. Now the knob 10 can be turned to the F position and the key removed. The slats of the lock cylinder 8, which are no longer in engagement with the locking grooves or rollers, are no longer in the way of rotation.
