Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anlenkung aushängbarer Kraftwagentüren von der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Art. Eine derartige Anlenkung ist aus EP-A-0 218 837 bekannt.The invention relates to a linkage of detachable motor vehicle doors from the specified in the preamble of claim 1. Such Linkage is known from EP-A-0 218 837.

Bei einer ersten bekannten Bauart einer Anlenkung für aushängbare Kraftwagentüren ist die Türe über je ein oberes und ein unteres Flügelscharnier an der Türsäule angelenkt, wobei beide Flügelscharniere untereinander im wesentlichen gleichartig ausgebildet und jeweils mit einer eigenen Aushängesicherung versehen sind.In a first known type of articulation for detachable motor vehicle doors is the door over an upper and a lower wing hinge on the Door pillar articulated, with both wing hinges with each other essentially trained in the same way and each with its own safety catch are.

Bei der aus EP-A-0 218 837 bekannten Bauart einer Anlenkung für aushängbare Kraftwagentüren ist die Türe über ein einfaches oberes und ein mit einer Aushängesicherung versehenes unteres Flügelscharnier an der Türsäule angelenkt und sind beide Flügelscharniere als tragende Scharniere ausgebildet, dahingehend, daß bei eingehängter Türe die einander zugewandten Gewerbeflächen sowohl des oberen als auch des unteren Scharnieres mittel-oder unmittelbar aufeinander aufliegen, was in der Praxis die Anwendung einer einfachen Gestaltung einer wartungsfreien Lagerung insbesondere im oberen einfach gestalteten Scharnier ausschließt. Die Aushängesicherung ist bei dieser Bauart zwar ausschließlich dem unteren Flügelscharnier zugeordnet, setzt aber die Verwendung einer bestimmten, weniger gebräuchlichen Ausführungsform der Scharnierlagerung vorraus.In the type of articulation for detachable devices known from EP-A-0 218 837 Motor vehicle doors is the door over a simple top and a with a lower wing hinge on the door pillar provided with a safety catch articulated and both wing hinges are designed as load-bearing hinges, to the extent that with the door hung, the mutually facing commercial areas both the upper and the lower hinge directly or indirectly rest on each other, which in practice is the application of a simple design maintenance-free storage, especially in the upper, simply designed Excludes hinge. The safety catch is exclusive with this type assigned to the lower wing hinge, but sets the use a certain, less common embodiment of the hinge bearing ahead.

Neben der Notwenigkeit hinsichtlich des unteren Scharnieres eine weniger gebräuchliche Bauart der Scharnierlagerung verwenden zu müssen haftet der bekannten Bauart einer Anlenkung aushängbarer Kraftwagentüren der Nachteil an, daß eine praktikable Gestaltung der wartungsfreien Scharnierlagerung hinsichtlich des oberen Scharnieres nicht erreichbar ist.In addition to the need for the lower hinge, one less Common type of hinge mounting The known type of articulation must be used detachable motor vehicle doors the disadvantage that a practical design of the maintenance-free hinge bearing not reachable with regard to the upper hinge is.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde eine gegen unbeabsichtigtes Aushängen gesicherten Anlenkung aushängbarer Kraftwagentüren zu schaffen, die auf der einen Seite eine wartungsfreie Lagerung der Scharnierstifte beider Flügelscharniere gewährleistet und auf der anderen Seite bei einfachster Ausgestaltung der Scharniere ein einfaches, leichtes sowie hinsichtlich der Lagerbuchsen aus wartungsfreiem Lagermaterial beschädigungsfreies Ein-und Aushängen der Fahrzeugtüre gewährleistet und dabei eine lediglich hinsichtlich eines Scharnieres eine Austattung mit einer Aushängesicherung erfordert, wobei hinsichtlich der Gestaltung der Aushängesicherung Konstruktionsfreiheit bestehen soll, dahingehend, daß jede in irgendeiner bekannten und bewährten Weise gestaltete Aushängesicherung verwendet werden kann.The invention has for its object against unintentional Unhooked linkage detachable Motor vehicle doors to create one on one side maintenance-free storage of the hinge pins of both wing hinges guaranteed and on the other hand at simplest design of the hinges a simple, lightweight and maintenance-free with regard to the bearing bushes Stock material damage-free hooking and unhooking guaranteed the vehicle door and only one a hinge with one Unlocking is required, with regard to the design the safety catch there is design freedom is said to be that each in any known and tried and tested designed safety catch can be.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1. gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1. solved.

Aus einer solchen Anordnung der jeweiligen Scharnierflügel der beiden die Türanlenkung bildenden Flügelscharniere folgt, daß bei eingehängter Türe lediglich die einander zugewandten Gewerbeflächen der Scharnieraugen des, im Anspruch 1 genannten, anderen Flügelscharnieres in axialer Richtung aufeinander aufliegen und damit die Türe in vertikaler Richtung lediglich über dieses Flügelscharnier an der Fahrzeugkarosserie abgestützt ist, während die einander zugewandten Gewerbeflächen der Scharnieraugen des, im Anspruch 1 genannten, einen Flügelscharnieres zwischen sich einen insbesondere spaltförmigen Freiraum einschließen, derart, daß selbst unter Einsatz einer Kragenbuchse als wartungsfreie Lagerung noch eine Berührungsfreiheit erhalten bleibt. Ingesamt sieht die Erfindung somit vor, daß eines der beiden Flügelscharniere als reines radiales Führungs-und das andere Flügelscharnier als kombiniertes axiales Trag-und radiales Führungslager ausgebildet ist. Eine solche Verteilung der Lagerkräfte gestattet es den Scharnierstift in beiden Flügelscharnieren mittels herkömmlicher Lagerbuchsen aus wartungsfreiem Lagermaterial wartungsfrei zu lagern, da insbesondere hinsichtlich des als radiales Führungslager einfach gestalteten Flügelscharnieres eine eventuelle Beschädigung des Kragens der gegebenenfalls als Kragenbuchse ausgeführten Lagerbuchse in dem als einfaches Flügelscharnier ausgeführten Scharnier keinen Einfluß auf deren Lagerungsqualität hat, so daß auch das Wiedereinhängen einer ausgehängten Türe problemlos ausführbar bzw. wiederholbar ist.From such an arrangement of the respective hinge wings of the two wing hinges forming the door linkage follows that when the door is hung only the one another facing commercial areas of the hinge eyes of the other mentioned in claim 1 Wing hinge rest on each other in the axial direction and so the door in the vertical direction just over supported this wing hinge on the vehicle body is, while the mutually facing commercial areas of the Hinge eyes of the one mentioned in claim 1, a wing hinge between them include an especially gap-shaped free space, such that even when using a collar bushing as maintenance-free storage still get a non-contact remains. Overall, the invention thus provides that one of the two wing hinges as a purely radial guide and the other wing hinge as a combined axial Support and radial guide bearing is formed. Such a distribution of the bearing forces allows the Hinge pin in both wing hinges using conventional Bearing bushes made of maintenance-free bearing material are maintenance-free to store, especially with regard to the as radial guide bearing simply designed wing hinge a possible damage to the collar of the designed as a collar bushing in the as simple wing hinge made hinge none Influence on their storage quality, so that that too It is easy to re-attach a detached door or is repeatable.

Hinsichtlich des einfach gestalteten Flügelscharnieres sollte insbesondere vorgesehen sein, daß der in der einen Scharnierhälfte des einfachen Flügelscharnieres, z.B. mittels einer Umfangsrändel, drehsicher und gegen axiales Wandern gesichert aufgenommene Scharnierstift an seinem freien Stirnende mit einem konischen, ballig abgerundereten Stirnende versehen ist, um ein möglichst gleitendes Einführen des Scharnierstiftes in die Lagerauskleidung des Scharnierauges des anderen Scharnierflügels zu gewährleisten. In Verbindung mit einer balligen oder konischen Ausführung des freien Scharnierstiftendes kann zusätzlich und weiterhin auch vorgesehen sein, daß das den Scharnierstift beim Einhängen der Türe aufnehmende Scharnierauge und gegebenenfalls auch die dieses auskleidende Buchse aus wartungsfreiem Lagermaterial mit einer konisch erweiterten Einlaufführung versehen sind. With regard to the simply designed wing hinge should in particular be provided that the one Hinge half of the simple wing hinge, e.g. by means of a circumferential knurl, non-rotatable and against axial wandering securely received hinge pin on its free Forehead with a conical, rounded rounded forehead is provided to ensure a smooth insertion of the hinge pin in the bearing lining of the hinge eye to ensure the other hinge wing. In Connection with a spherical or conical version of the free hinge pin ends can also and continue also be provided that the hinge pin when hanging the hinge eye receiving the door and if necessary also the this lining liner made of maintenance-free Storage material with a conically expanded inlet guide are provided.
