In jeder der beiden Gehäusehälften sind zwei zylindrische Ausnehmungen ausgebildet, in denen zwei Führungsrollen ausschließlich drehbar gelagert sind, wobei die Führungsrollen in dem Hohlraum der Haltestange angeordnet sind, und jeweils eine der Führungsrollen mit jeweils einer Flachseite einer der beiden Klingen in Kontakt steht. In dem Gehäuse sind zwei weitere, ausschließlich drehbare Führungsrollen vorgesehen, die senkrecht bezüglich der Führungsrollen ausgerichtet sind, und die mit dünnen äußeren Flachseiten der beiden Klingen in Kontakt stehen. Die beiden Klingen weisen ein wellenförmiges Profil auf, das bezüglich einer Erstreckungsachse symmetrisch ist, wobei die Achse zugleich die Symmetrieachse des Gehäuses ist. In den Wellentälern sind die beiden Führungsrollen festlegbar und definieren bevorzugte Raststellungen des Feststellers. Nachteilig bei dieser Art von Türfeststellern ist die Tatsache, dass die Haltestange aus zwei einen Hohlraum bildenden Klingen besteht, wodurch eine leichte Verformbarkeit, durch zum Beispiel häufigen Gebrauch der Tür, der Haltestange gegeben ist. Bei Verformung einer der beiden Klingen, oder auch beider, wird das Wellenprofil unsymmetrsich deformiert und die definierten Raststellungen werden verschoben oder verschwinden, so dass ein Feststellen der Tür nicht mehr sicher oder gar nicht mehr möglich ist. Ein weiterer Nachteil ist, dass die Führungsrollen sowohl das Feststellen als auch das Führen der Haltestangen bewirken, so dass einerseits zum Feststellen ein relativ hoher Reibungskontakt zwischen den Führungsrollen und den Klingen vorhanden sein muss und andererseits zum leichten Bewegen der Tür ein Gleiten der Führungsrollen an den Klingen realisiert sein muss, so dass ein Kompromiß zum Nachteil des Feststellens oder des Bewegens der Tür von Nöten ist.FR 2 666 616 A1 shows a door arrester for a motor vehicle, which comprises a housing, wherein the housing has a first housing half and a second housing half. The two housing halves define an opening, wherein the first housing half and the second housing half each define only a portion of the circumference of the opening. The opening is penetrated by a holding rod pivotally arranged on a door arrangement part, wherein the support bar is formed from two metallic elastic blades, which are connected together at their outer ends, and which form a cavity for the holding bar in a central area. In each of the two housing halves two cylindrical recesses are formed, in which two guide rollers are mounted only rotatably, wherein the guide rollers are arranged in the cavity of the support rod, and in each case one of the guide rollers, each with a flat side of one of the two blades in contact. In the housing two further, exclusively rotatable guide rollers are provided, which are aligned perpendicular to the guide rollers, and which are in contact with thin outer flat sides of the two blades. The two blades have a wave-shaped profile which is symmetrical with respect to an extension axis, wherein the axis is at the same time the axis of symmetry of the housing. In the troughs, the two guide rollers can be fixed and define preferred locking positions of the arrester. A disadvantage of this type of door arresters is the fact that the support bar consists of two cavities forming a cavity, whereby a slight deformability, given by, for example, frequent use of the door, the support rod. Upon deformation of one of the two blades, or both, the wave profile is unbalanced deformed and the defined locking positions are moved or disappear, so that a determination the door is no longer safe or no longer possible. Another disadvantage is that the guide rollers cause both the locking and the guiding of the support rods, so that on the one hand for locking a relatively high frictional contact between the guide rollers and the blades must be present and on the other hand for easy movement of the door, a sliding of the guide rollers on the Blades must be realized so that a compromise to the detriment of detecting or moving the door is needed.

US 6,446,305 B1 zeigt einen Türfeststeller, der ein einteiliges Gehäuse umfasst, das eine Öffnung aufweist, wobei die Öffnung von einer Haltestange durchsetzt ist. Das Gehäuse ist mittels Schrauben oder Nieten an Tür oder Türrahmen befestigt, und in dem Gehäuse sind zwei Bremsglieder angeordnet, die jeweils eine Führung und ein Federelement umfassen, wobei das Federelement die Führung entgegen der Haltestange vorspannen. Jede der beiden Führungen weist ein Kontaktteil auf, der mit der Haltestange in Eingriff steht, und der derart ausgeformt ist, dass die Kontaktfläche des Kontaktteils mit der Haltestange eine Linie ausbildet. Die Haltestange ist zwischen den beiden Kontaktflächen angeordnet und steht mit breiten Seiten mit den beiden Kontaktteilen der Bremsglieder in Eingriff. Die breiten Seiten der Haltestange weisen eine ansteigende Rampe auf, so dass beim Öffnen der Tür durch das Ansteigen der Rampe entgegen der beiden Federelemente der Bremsglieder eine Kraft überwunden werden muss, und so die Öffnungsbewegung der Tür gehemmt wird. Die Rampe der Haltestange weist auch einen Abfall auf, so dass auch bei der Schließbewegung der Tür deren Bewegung gehemmt wird. Durch die einteilige Ausgestaltung des Gehäuses des Türfeststellers kommt es zu einem komplizierten Zusammenbau und der Anbau des Türfeststellers an die Tür oder den Türrahmen ist aufwendig, da nach Einbringen der Haltestange in das Gehäuse die Bremsglieder um die Haltestange und gleichzeitig innerhalb des Gehäuses angeordnet werden müssen.US 6,446,305 B1 shows a door arrester, which comprises a one-piece housing having an opening, wherein the opening is penetrated by a support rod. The housing is fastened to the door or door frame by means of screws or rivets, and in the housing two brake members are arranged, each comprising a guide and a spring element, the spring element biasing the guide against the support rod. Each of the two guides has a contact part which engages with the support rod and which is formed such that the contact surface of the contact part with the support rod forms a line. The support rod is disposed between the two contact surfaces and engages with wide sides with the two contact parts of the brake members. The wide sides of the support rod have a rising ramp, so that when opening the door by the rise of the ramp against the two spring elements of the brake links, a force must be overcome, and so the opening movement of the door is inhibited. The ramp of the support rod also has a waste, so that even with the closing movement of the door whose movement is inhibited. Due to the one-piece design of the housing of the door arrester, there is a complicated assembly and the attachment of the door arrester to the door or the door frame is expensive, since after insertion of the support rod in the housing, the brake members must be arranged around the support rod and at the same time within the housing.

US 5,173,991 A zeigt einen Türfeststeller, der ein Gehäuse und einen das Gehäuse bedeckenden Deckel umfasst. Das Gehäuse und der Deckel weisen jeweils eine Öffnung auf, die in einer Flucht zueinander ausgerichtet sind. Das Gehäuse und der Deckel werden mittels zweier Schrauben an der Tür oder dem Türrahmen befestigt. Die beiden Öffnungen werden von einer Haltestange durchsetzt, die eine obere und eine untere Flachseite aufweist, wobei jede der beiden Flachseiten eine Nut in Richtung der Erstreckung der Haltestange aufweist. In den beiden Nuten sind Ausnehmungen vorgesehen, in denen jeweils ein Bremsglied festlegbar ist. Jedes der beiden Bremsglieder umfasst eine Kugel, die mit der Nut der Haltestange in Kontakt steht und eine durch ein Federelement in Richtung der Haltestange vorgespanntes Plastikelement, in dem auf der dem Federelement abgewandten Seite die Kugel gelagert ist. Bei einer Öffnungs- oder Schließbewegung der Tür wird die Haltestange durch das Gehäuse geführt, und die Kugeln der beiden Bremsglieder in der Nut mitgenommen, wobei die Ausnehmungen der Nut Rastpositionen für die Bewegung der Tür darstellen. Nachteilig bei dieser Art von Türfeststellern ist die Tatsache, dass der Zusammenbau des Türfeststellers aufwendig ist, da zunächst die beiden Bremsglieder um die Haltestange angeordnet werden müssen, und dann gleichzeitig die Haltestange und die beiden Bremsglieder in das Gehäuse geführt werden müssen, um anschließend das Gehäuse mit dem Deckel schließen zu können.US 5,173,991 A shows a door arrester comprising a housing and a lid covering the housing. The housing and the cover each have an opening which are aligned in alignment with each other. The The housing and the cover are fastened to the door or door frame by means of two screws. The two openings are penetrated by a support rod having an upper and a lower flat side, wherein each of the two flat sides has a groove in the direction of the extension of the support rod. In the two grooves recesses are provided, in each of which a brake member can be fixed. Each of the two brake members comprises a ball, which is in contact with the groove of the support rod and a biased by a spring element in the direction of the support rod plastic element in which on the side facing away from the spring element, the ball is mounted. In an opening or closing movement of the door, the support rod is guided by the housing, and the balls of the two brake members are taken in the groove, wherein the recesses of the groove represent locking positions for the movement of the door. A disadvantage of this type of door arresters is the fact that the assembly of the door arrester is expensive, since first the two brake links must be arranged around the support rod, and then at the same time the support rod and the two brake links must be guided into the housing, then the housing to close with the lid.

FR 770 550 zeigt einen Türfeststeller gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 mit einem Gehäuse, das eine erste Gehäusehälfte und eine als ein Plattenteil ausgebildete zweite Gehäusehälfte umfasst, wobei die beiden Gehäusehälften mittels einer Nietverbindung miteinander verbunden sind. Das Gehäuse weist eine Öffnung auf, die von einer Haltestange durchsetzt wird. Die Öffnung ist jeweils nur zu einem Abschnitt von einer der Gehäusehälfte begrenzt. In der ersten Gehäusehälfte ist ein zylindrische ausgebildetes Bremsglied verschieblich angeordnet, das von einem Federelement in Richtung auf die Haltestange vorgespannt ist.FR 770 550 shows a door arrester according to the preamble of claim 1 with a housing comprising a first housing half and a second housing half formed as a plate part, wherein the two housing halves are connected to each other by means of a rivet connection. The housing has an opening which is penetrated by a support rod. The opening is limited in each case only to a portion of one of the housing half. In the first housing half a cylindrical formed brake member is slidably disposed, which is biased by a spring element in the direction of the support rod.

WO 01 90 518 A1 zeigt einen Türfeststeller, bei dem ein einstückig ausgebildetes Gehäuse in einer Öffnung von einer Haltestange durchsetzt wird, wobei in dem Gehäuse zwei axial verschiebbare und von jeweils einer Druckfeder in Richtung der Haltestange vorgespannte Bremsglieder vorgesehen sind, die an einer der Haltestange zugekehrten Seite kugelförmige Eingriffskalotten aufweisen, wobei die Eingriffskalotten mit der Haltestange in Kontakt stehen. Die Haltestange ist zwischen den Eingriffskalotten der beiden Bremsglieder angeordnet, wobei die Haltestange zu den kugelförmigen Eingriffskalotten passende, rund ausgebildete Rastmarken aufweist. In dem Gehäuse sind zwei Bohrungen zum Befestigen des Gehäuses mit einem Kraftfahrzeug mittels Schrauben vorgesehen. Die beiden Bohrungen weisen den gleichen Abstand zu der Haltestange auf, wobei die Bohrungen zwischen der Verlagerungsebene der Bremsglieder und einer Befestigungsebene des Gehäuses mit dem Kraftfahrzeug angeordnet sind. Nachteilig bei dieser Art von Türfeststellern ist, dass die Eingriffskalotten der Bremsglieder kugelförmig ausgebildet sind, so dass die an der Haltestange angeordneten Rastmarken relativ groß ausgebildet sein müssen, so dass nur eine begrenzte Anzahl von Rastpositionen möglich sind und auch die spezifische Haltekraft begrenzt wird. Ferner ist von Nachteil, dass die Bohrungen zwischen dem Kraftfahrzeug und der Verlagerungsebene der Bremsglieder angeordnet sind, wodurch eine relative große Bauhöhe für das Gehäuse entsteht und überdies die durch die Bremsglieder auf die Haltestange ausgeübten Kräfte wegen des Abstands zu der Anlageebene des Gehäuses an dem entsprechenden Türanordnungsteil große Momente insbesondere auf die Schrauben zur Befestigung des Gehäuses ausübt. Überdies ist der Anbau des Türfeststellers an das Kraftfahrzeug aufwendig, da zunächst werden die beiden Bremsglieder in das Gehäuse eingebracht, nachgeordnet muss die Haltestange durch die Öffnung und entgegen der Vorspannkraft der beiden Druckfedern durch das Gehäuse geführt werden, um schließlich an dem Kraftfahrzeug verschraubt zu werden.WO 01 90 518 A1 shows a door arrester, in which an integrally formed housing is penetrated in an opening of a support rod, wherein in the housing two axially displaceable and biased by a respective compression spring in the direction of the support rod braking members are provided on one of the support rod facing side spherical engagement calotte, wherein the engagement calotte are in contact with the support rod. The support rod is arranged between the engagement calottes of the two brake members, wherein the support rod to the spherical engagement dome has matching, round-shaped locking marks. In the housing, two holes for fastening the housing to a motor vehicle by means of screws are provided. The two holes are at the same distance to the support rod, wherein the holes between the displacement plane of the brake members and a mounting plane of the housing are arranged with the motor vehicle. A disadvantage of this type of Door arresters is that the engagement of the caliper brake pads are spherical, so that arranged on the support rod locking marks must be relatively large, so that only a limited number of locking positions are possible and the specific holding power is limited. Furthermore, it is disadvantageous that the holes between the motor vehicle and the displacement plane of the brake members are arranged, whereby a relatively large height for the housing is formed and also the forces exerted by the brake members on the support rod forces because of the distance to the abutment plane of the housing to the corresponding Door assembly part exerts large moments, in particular on the screws for fixing the housing. Moreover, the cultivation of the door arrester to the motor vehicle is complicated, since first the two brake links are introduced into the housing, the holding rod must be guided through the opening and against the biasing force of the two compression springs through the housing, to be finally screwed to the motor vehicle ,

Es ist die Aufgabe der Erfindung einen Türfeststeller nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 zu schaffen, der ein zuverlässiges und sicheres Feststellen ermöglicht und kostengünstig hergestellt werden kann.It is the object of the invention to provide a door lock according to the preamble of claim 1, which allows a reliable and secure detection and can be produced inexpensively.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei dem eingangs genannten Türfeststeller erfindungsgemäß mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention in the above-mentioned door lock with the characterizing features of claim 1.

Vorzugsweise erfolgt das Feststellen der Haltestange durch die Bremsglieder entlang einer breiten Seite der Haltestange, wodurch eine Kontaktfläche des Bremsglieds mit der Haltestange entsprechend groß ist, und die Kraftübertragung von dem Bremsglied auf die Haltestange verbessert wird. Zweckmäßigerweise ist das Bremsglied normal zu einem Rand der Öffnung verstellbar angeordnet, so dass das Verschieben des Bremsglieds und der Kontakt des Bremsglieds mit der Haltestange in einer geraden Linie erfolgen. Dadurch wird ferner einen Verkanten des Bremsglieds beim Verstellen vermieden, so dass die Festhaltekraft unmittelbar auf die Haltestange wirkt.Preferably, the fixing of the support rod by the brake members along a broad side of the support rod, whereby a contact surface of the brake member with the support rod is correspondingly large, and the transmission of power from the brake member is improved on the support rod. Conveniently, the brake member is arranged to be adjustable normal to an edge of the opening, so that the displacement of the brake member and the contact of the brake member with the support rod in a straight line. This also prevents tilting of the brake member during adjustment, so that the retaining force acts directly on the support rod.

Vorzugsweise weist das Bremsglied eine quer zu der Bewegungsrichtung der Haltestange verlaufende, als Wulst ausgebildete Eingriffsnase auf, so dass die Kontaktfläche des Bremsglieds mit der Haltestange verkleinert wird. Dadurch wird gleichzeitig die Festhaltekraft auf die kleinere Kontaktfläche konzentriert und verstärkt, so dass das Feststellen der Haltestange gesichert ist.Preferably, the brake member has a transverse to the direction of movement of the support rod extending, formed as a bead engagement nose, so that the contact surface of the brake member is reduced with the support rod. As a result, the holding force is simultaneously concentrated and reinforced on the smaller contact surface, so that the securing of the holding rod is secured.

Vorzugsweise ist in jeder der beiden Gehäusehälften je ein Bremsglied vorgesehen, wobei jedes der beiden Bremsglieder eine Eingriffsnase aufweist. Zweckmäßigerweise sind die beiden Bremsglieder mit den Eingriffsnasen einander zugewandt in die beiden Gehäusehälften eingesetzt. Dadurch wird die Haltestange von den beiden Bremsgliedern zum Feststellen beidseitig mit einer Haltekraft beaufschlagt, so dass die auf die Haltestange wirkende Haltekraft vergrößert wird. Weiterhin wird durch die beidseitige Beaufschlagung der Haltestange ein nicht gewünschtes Verkanten in einer Feststellposition und/oder während der Bewegung vermieden. Vorzugsweise umfasst das Federelement eine Druckfeder, die einen Teil aufweist, der innerhalb des Bremsglieds angeordnet ist, wobei das Bremsglied einen Hohlraum aufweist. Dadurch wird die Druckfeder sicher in dem Bremsglied geführt, so dass die Druckfeder während des Feststellens der Haltestange nur eine axiale Ausdehnung erfahren kann, und es nicht möglich ist, dass die Druckfeder in eine nicht gewünschte Richtung verknicken kann, so dass die von der Druckfeder auf das Bremsglied wirkende Kraft in Richtung der Haltestange gerichtet ist.Preferably, a respective brake member is provided in each of the two housing halves, wherein each of the two brake members has an engagement nose. Conveniently, the two brake members with the engagement lugs facing each other are inserted into the two housing halves. As a result, the holding rod is acted upon by the two brake members for locking on both sides with a holding force, so that the holding force acting on the holding rod is increased. Furthermore, an undesired tilting in a locked position and / or during movement is avoided by the two-sided loading of the support rod. Preferably, this includes Spring element a compression spring having a part which is disposed within the brake member, wherein the brake member has a cavity. Thereby, the compression spring is securely guided in the brake member, so that the compression spring can experience only an axial extent during the detection of the support rod, and it is not possible that the compression spring can buckle in an undesirable direction, so that of the compression spring the brake member acting force is directed in the direction of the support rod.

In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist die Öffnung des Gehäuses kleiner dimensioniert als beide Endbereiche der Haltestange, so dass die beiden Gehäusehälften durch Übergreifen der Haltestange verbindbar sind. Dadurch wird es ermöglicht, die Öffnung des Gehäuses der Größe der Haltestange anzupassen. Durch die Größe der Öffnung ist die Größe der beiden Gehäusehälften mitbestimmt, so dass auch die beiden Gehäusehälften in einer vorteilhaft kleinbauenden Weise ausbildbar sind, so dass der Türfeststeller eine kompakte Bauform aufweist.In a preferred embodiment, the opening of the housing is dimensioned smaller than both end portions of the support rod, so that the two housing halves are connected by overlapping the support rod. This makes it possible to adjust the opening of the housing to the size of the support rod. Due to the size of the opening, the size of the two housing halves is co-determined, so that the two housing halves can be formed in an advantageously small-sized way, so that the door arrester has a compact design.

Bei Betätigen der Tür werden die beiden Gehäusehälften durch die Haltestange mit einer quer zu den Gehäusehälften gerichteten Kraft beaufschlagt. Um die Querkraft zu kompensieren, werden die beiden Gehäusehälften vorzugsweise durch Nieten miteinander verbunden, wodurch ein Versteifung das Gehäuse zweckmäßig erreicht wird und das Gehäuse gegen die Kraft verfestigt ist. Somit wird es ermöglicht, dass die beiden Gehäusehälften aus einem leichten Material, zum Beispiel Kunststoff, gefertigt werden können, da die Kraftkompensation durch die Nieten bewirkt wird.Upon actuation of the door, the two housing halves are acted upon by the holding rod with a force directed transversely to the housing halves. In order to compensate for the transverse force, the two housing halves are preferably connected to one another by rivets, whereby a stiffening the housing is suitably achieved and the housing is solidified against the force. Thus, it is possible that the two housing halves made of a lightweight material, such as plastic, can be made, since the force compensation is effected by the rivets.

Erfindungsgemäß weist das Bremsglied eine Mantelfläche auf, die Durchbrechungen aufweist, wodurch erreicht wird, dass das Bremsglied federnd ausgebildet ist. Durch die Federung des Bremsglieds wird es ermöglicht, dass beim Einsetzen in die Gehäusehälfte ein Verkanten des Bremsglied vermieden wird und das Bremsglied in gewünschter axialer Richtung eingesetzt wird.According to the invention, the brake member on a lateral surface, which has openings, whereby it is achieved that the brake member is resilient. By the suspension of the brake member, it is possible that when inserting into the housing half tilting of the brake member is avoided and the brake member is used in the desired axial direction.

An dem Gehäuse ist in einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ein Führungsabschnitt vorgesehen, der über eine Anlegeebene des Gehäuses mit dem Türanordnungsteil Tür oder Türsäule vorsteht und mit dem entsprechenden Türanordnungsteil formschlüssig festlegbar ist. Dadurch wird ein einfaches Anbringen des Türfeststellers an dem Türanordnungsteil möglich, da durch das Vorstehen des Führungsabschnitts eine eindeutige Ausrichtung des Türfeststellers in Bezug auf das Türanordnungsteil vorgegeben ist. Weiterhin wird dadurch vermieden, dass das Türanordnungsteil und der Türfeststeller einen Abstand zueinander aufweisen, wodurch der Türfeststeller platzsparend an dem Türanordnungsteil angeordnet ist und einem Benutzer der Tür optisch nicht negativ auffällt oder die Haltestange als störend empfunden wird.On the housing, in a preferred embodiment, a guide section is provided, which projects beyond a contact plane of the housing with the door arrangement part door or door pillar and can be fixed in a form-fitting manner with the corresponding door arrangement part. As a result, a simple attachment of the door arrester to the door assembly part is possible, since an unequivocal orientation of the door arrester with respect to the door assembly part is predetermined by the projection of the guide portion. Furthermore, this avoids that the door assembly part and the door lock have a distance from each other, whereby the door lock is arranged to save space on the door assembly part and a user of the door visually not negatively noticeable or the support rod is perceived as disturbing.

Der Führungsabschnitt weist vorzugsweise Rippen auf, die die Öffnung des Gehäuses zweckmäßig randseitig begrenzen, und die eine progressiv ausgebildete Nut aufweisen. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass beim Anbau des Gehäuses des Türfeststellers die Orientierung des Gehäuses in Bezug auf das Türanordnungsteil mittels der Nut vorgegeben ist. Der Anbau des Gehäuses in der gewünschten Weise ist dadurch sicher gestellt.The guide portion preferably has ribs, which limit the opening of the housing expedient edge, and having a progressively formed groove. This ensures that the orientation of the housing with respect to the door assembly part is specified by means of the groove when mounting the housing of the door arrester. The cultivation of the housing in the desired manner is ensured.

Durch die zweckmäßige Anordnung jeweils einer Rippe an einem der beiden Gehäusehälften wird erreicht, dass die Befestigungskräfte zwischen dem Gehäuse und dem Türanordnungsteil auf die beiden Gehäusehälften gleichmäßig verteilt wird, und somit ein sicherer Anbau des Türfeststellers sichergestellt wird. Ferner wird ein Verkanten oder ein schräger Anbau vermieden.Due to the expedient arrangement of a respective rib on one of the two housing halves is achieved that the fastening forces between the housing and the door assembly part is evenly distributed to the two housing halves, and thus a secure attachment of the door arrester is ensured. Furthermore, tilting or sloping attachment is avoided.

An den beiden Gehäusehälften ist vorzugsweise jeweils eine Schnittfläche vorgesehen, die senkrecht zu der Erstreckungsrichtung der Haltestange ausgerichtet ist. Die beiden Gehäusehälften werden vorteilhaft an den Schnittflächen miteinander verbunden. Die Schnittflächen definieren eine eindeutige Verbindungsebene für die beiden Gehäusehälften, wodurch ein falsches Zusammenbauen der beiden Gehäusehälften vermieden wird. Der Zusammenbau wird vorteilhaft durch Ausricht- und Führungselemente an den Schnittflächen erleichtert, wobei zweckmäßig ein Ausrichtelement einem Führungselement zugeordnet ist.On the two housing halves is preferably provided in each case a sectional area which is aligned perpendicular to the extension direction of the support rod. The two housing halves are advantageously connected to one another at the cut surfaces. The cut surfaces define a unique joint plane for the two housing halves, thereby avoiding incorrect assembly of the two housing halves. The assembly is advantageously facilitated by alignment and guide elements on the cut surfaces, wherein suitably an alignment is associated with a guide element.

Um die Herstellung sowie die Produktion des Türfeststellers effektiver zu gestalten, sind die beiden Gehäusehälften in vorteilhafter Weise identisch ausgebildet. Es wird somit eine einzige Produktionsstraße benötigt und eine große Serienlänge erreicht.In order to make the production and production of the door arrester more effective, the two housing halves are advantageously identical. Thus, a single production line is needed and a large series length is achieved.

Die beiden Gehäusehälften sind vorzugsweise als Spritzgußteile aus Kunststoff hergestellt.The two housing halves are preferably made of plastic as injection molded parts.

Ein Verfahren zum Anbringen des Türfeststellers gemäß Anspruch 33, bei dem eine erste Gehäusehälfte und eine zweite Gehäusehälfte erst nach Einsetzen der Haltestange mit einem von Tür und Türrahmen verbunden werden, und bei dem die Schnittflächen bei dem Verbinden normal zu dem einen von Tür und Türrahmen ausgerichtet sind, ermöglicht durch ein dem Einsetzen der Haltestange nachgeordnetes Anbringen an dem einen von Türrahmen oder der Tür ein einfache Montage, wobei die Schnittflächen der beiden Gehäusehälften senkrecht zu der Tür oder dem Türrahmen ausgerichtet sind. Durch die senkrechte Anordnung der Schnittflächen wird eine eindeutige Lage des Gehäuses während des Anbringens in Bezug auf das Kraftfahrzeug festgelegt, wodurch jederzeit eine Kontrolle der Ausrichtung möglich ist und sicher gestellt ist, dass das Gehäuse in der gewünschten Position befestigt ist.A method of attaching the door arrester according to claim 33, wherein a first housing half and a second housing half are connected to one of the door and door frame only after insertion of the support rod, and wherein the cut surfaces in the connection align normal to the one of the door and door frame are made possible by a the insertion of the holding bar downstream attaching to the one of the door frame or the Door easy installation, with the cut surfaces of the two housing halves are aligned perpendicular to the door or the door frame. The vertical arrangement of the cut surfaces a clear position of the housing during mounting is fixed with respect to the motor vehicle, whereby at any time a control of the alignment is possible and is ensured that the housing is fixed in the desired position.

Hierbei wird das Gehäuse durch eine Drehbewegung mit dem einen von Tür oder Türrahmen verbunden.Here, the housing is connected by a rotational movement with the one door or door frame.

In einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung des Verfahrens ist zum Verbinden des Gehäuses mit einem von Tür und Türrahmen eine Bajonettverbindung vorgesehen.In a preferred development of the method, a bayonet connection is provided for connecting the housing to one of the door and door frame.

Dadurch wird ein aufwendiger Befestigungsvorgang vermieden, da die Bajonettverbindung ein Verbinden der beiden Teile durch eine einzige Drehung ermöglicht.As a result, a complex attachment process is avoided because the bayonet connection allows a connection of the two parts by a single rotation.

Die Gehäusehälfte 3 ist als ein einendig offener Hohlzylinder ausgebildet, bestehend aus einer der Öffnung 23 abgekehrten geschlossenen Basisseite 5, einem Mantel 6 und einer Frontseite 7, die eine kreisförmige Freigabeöffnung 13 des Hohlzylinders umfasst, wobei die kreisförmige Freigabeöffnung 13 quer zu der eckigen Öffnung 24 in diese übergeht.The housing half 3 is designed as a hollow cylinder open at one end, consisting of a closed base side 5 facing away from the opening 23, a jacket 6 and a front side 7 which comprises a circular release opening 13 of the hollow cylinder, the circular release opening 13 being transverse to the angular opening 24 goes into this.

Die Frontseite 7 besteht aus einem ersten Rand 7a, einem zweiten Rand 7b, einem dritten Rand 7c und einen vierten Rand 7d, die die kreisförmige Freigabeöffnung 13 der Gehäusehälfte 3 begrenzen. Der erste und der zweite Rand 7a, 7b und der dritte und der vierte Rand 7c, 7d sind dabei paarweise gegenüberliegend angeordnet. Der erste und der zweite Rand 7a, 7b stehen in Bezug auf den dritten und den vierten Rand 7c, 7d um einen Abstand a vor. Es ergibt sich ein rechteckförmiger Spalt 10, der in einem mittleren Bereich der Frontseite 7 angeordnet ist und bezüglich einer die Frontseite 7 symmetrisch teilenden Achse S symmetrisch ausgerichtet ist (vgl. Fig. 2). Der dritte und der vierte Rand 7c, 7d fluchten mit der kreisförmigen Freigabeöffnung 13 der Gehäusehälfte 3, wo hingegen der erste und der zweite Rand 7a, 7b um den Abstand a hervorstehen.The front side 7 consists of a first edge 7a, a second edge 7b, a third edge 7c and a fourth edge 7d, which delimit the circular release opening 13 of the housing half 3. The first and the second edge 7a, 7b and the third and the fourth edge 7c, 7d are arranged in pairs opposite each other. The first and second edges 7a, 7b project by a distance a with respect to the third and fourth edges 7c, 7d. The result is a rectangular gap 10, which is arranged in a central region of the front side 7 and is aligned symmetrically with respect to an axis 7 symmetrically dividing the front side 7 (compare FIG. 2). The third and the fourth edge 7c, 7d are aligned with the circular release opening 13 of the housing half 3, whereas, on the other hand, the first and the second edge 7a, 7b protrude by the distance a.

In dem zweiten Rand 7b ist ein Ausrichtelement 11 angeordnet, das als ein Vorsprung ausgebildet ist. In dem ersten Rand 7a ist ein als Ausnehmung ausgebildetes Führungselement 12 vorgesehen (vgl. Fig. 3). Bei einem Zusammenbau der beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 wird das Ausrichtelement 11 bzw. Führungselement 12 der ersten Gehäusehälfte 3 mit dem Führungselement 12 bzw. Ausrichtelement 11 der zweiten Gehäusehälfte 4 in Eingriff gebracht, so dass die beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 in der gewünschten Ausrichtung zu einander orientiert und axial zusammengesteckt werden können.In the second edge 7b, an alignment member 11 is arranged, which is formed as a projection. A guide element 12 designed as a recess is provided in the first edge 7a (see FIG. 3). When assembling the two housing halves 3, 4, the alignment element 11 or guide element 12 of the first housing half 3 is brought into engagement with the guide element 12 or alignment element 11 of the second housing half 4, so that the two housing halves 3, 4 in the desired orientation oriented each other and can be plugged together axially.

Ferner ist in den beiden Rändern 7a, 7b in einer oberen Hälfte jeweils eine diese Ränder parallel zu dem Hohlsylinder durchsetzende Bohrung 29 vorgesehen. Zum Verbinden der beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 wird in die Bohrungen 29 ein Niet 30 eingeführt und festgelegt.Further, in the two edges 7a, 7b in an upper half in each case one of these edges parallel to the hollow cylinder passing through hole 29 is provided. To connect the two housing halves 3, 4, a rivet 30 is inserted and fixed in the bores 29.

Auf der der Anlageebene 3a abgekehrten Seite ist entlang zweier gegenüberliegender Umfangsbereiche der Öffnung 23 quer zu den Bohrungen 29 ein Dämpfungsstreifen 26 aus weichem Kunststoff aufgebracht, der oberhalb der von dem Mantel 6 gebildeten Außenfläche angeordnet ist.On the side facing away from the abutment plane 3a, an attenuation strip 26 made of soft plastic is applied along two opposite circumferential regions of the opening 23 transversely to the bores 29, which is arranged above the outer surface formed by the jacket 6.

Einstückig mit dem Mantel 6 ist in etwa in der Mitte von dessen Erstreckung einseitig benachbart und zu der zu der Achse S seitlich versetzt ein Vorsprung 8 etwa über die halbe Höhe des Mantels 6 angeordnet, der ist und ein halbkreisförmiges Profil aufweist (vgl. Fig. 2).Integral with the shell 6 is approximately on one side adjacent to approximately in the middle of its extension and to the side of the axis S offset a projection 8 disposed approximately over half the height of the shell 6, which is and has a semicircular profile (see FIG. 2).

In dem Vorsprung 8 ist normal zur Anlageebene 3a eine Bohrung 9 ausgebildet, wobei durch die seitlich Anordnung des Vorsprungs 8 die Bohrung 9 nicht in den Hohlraum der Gehäusehälfte 3 eindringt oder diesen unterbaut.In the projection 8 is a bore 9 is formed normal to the abutment plane 3a, wherein the bore 9 does not penetrate into the cavity of the housing half 3 or supported by the lateral arrangement of the projection 8.

Die Bohrung 9 schließt bündig mit einer Flachseite 3a der Gehäusehälfte 3 ab, die eine Anlageebene für das Gehäuse 2 mit der Tür oder dem Türrahmen bildet.The bore 9 terminates flush with a flat side 3a of the housing half 3, which forms a bearing plane for the housing 2 with the door or the door frame.

Innerhalb der Bohrung 9 ist ein metallisches Gewindestück 9a angeordnet, das zum Befestigen der Gehäusehälfte 3 mittels Schrauben vorgesehen ist. Der Vorsprung 8 erstreckt sich ungefähr über die der Flachseite 3a zugewandten Hälfte der Bauhöhe der Gehäusehälfte 3, wobei in der anderen Hälfte die Bohrung 29 für die Niete 30 angeordnet ist.Within the bore 9, a metallic threaded part 9a is arranged, which is provided for fastening the housing half 3 by means of screws. The projection 8 extends approximately over the flat side 3a facing half the height of the housing half 3, wherein the bore 29 is arranged for the rivets 30 in the other half.

In Fig. 1 ist ein Querschnitt des Türfeststellers 1 gezeigt, wobei die Gehäusehälfte 3 einen U-förmigen Querschnitt aufweist. Die Basisseite 5 bildet dabei die Basis des U und die beiden Schenkel 6a, 6b des U werden aus Schnitten des Mantels 6 gebildet.In Fig. 1 a cross section of the door arrester 1 is shown, wherein the housing half 3 has a U-shaped cross-section. The base side 5 forms the base of the U and the two legs 6a, 6b of the U are formed from sections of the shell 6.

In dem in der Gehäusehälfte 3 gebildeten Hohlzylinder ist ein Bremsglied 14 durch die kreisförmige Freigabeöffnung 13 eingesetzt, das in diesem axial geführt ist und eine kürzere Erstreckung als die Tiefe des Hohlzylinders aufweist, so dass ein axiales Verschieben des Bremsglieds 14 innerhalb der Gehäusehälfte 3 möglich ist.In the hollow cylinder formed in the housing half 3, a brake member 14 is inserted through the circular release opening 13, which is axially guided in this and has a shorter extension than the depth of the hollow cylinder, so that an axial displacement of the brake member 14 within the housing half 3 is possible ,

Das als Hohlteil aus Kunststoff im Spritzgußverfahren hergestellte Bremsglied 14 besteht aus einer vorderen Stirnseite 15, einer Mantelfläche 16 und einer der vorderen Stirnseite abgekehrten Rückseite 17, die einen zentralen, von der Mantelfläche begrenzten Zugang aufweist. Die Mantelfläche 16 begrenzt im Inneren des Bremsglieds 14 einen hohlzylindrisch ausgestalteten Innenraum.The brake member 14 produced as a hollow part made of plastic by injection molding consists of a front end face 15, a lateral surface 16 and a front side facing away from the rear side 17, which has a central, bounded by the lateral surface access. The lateral surface 16 bounded in the interior of the brake member 14 has a hollow cylindrical interior.

Die vordere Stirnseite 15 ist mit einer sich quer zur Mantelfläche 16 über den Durchmesser des Bremsglieds 14 erstreckenden Eingriffsnase 18 ausgestaltet, die im Querschnitt abgerundet (Fig. 5) und im Längsschnitt entlang ihrer Erstreckung langgestreckt ausgebildet ist. Die Eingriffsnase 18 ist im wesentlichen komplementär zu in der Haltestange 24, im wesentlichen quer zu deren Bewegungsrichtung durch die in dem Gehäuse 2 definierte Öffnung 23 ausgerichtete Rastausnehmungen 25 ausgebildet.The front end face 15 is configured with an engagement nose 18 which extends transversely to the lateral surface 16 over the diameter of the brake member 14 and which is rounded in cross-section (FIG. 5) and elongate in longitudinal section along its extension. The engagement lug 18 is substantially complementary to the support bar 24, substantially transverse to whose direction of movement is formed by the defined in the housing 2 opening 23 recesses 25 formed.

Die Eingriffsnase 18 ist derart dimensioniert, dass der erste und der zweite Rand 7a, 7b, die um einen Abstand a aus der Frontseite 7 der Gehäusehälfte 3 hervorstehen, um einen Abstand c, der betragsmäßig kleiner ist als der Abstand a, weiter vorstehen als eine vorderste Kante der Eingriffsnase 18 des Bremsglieds 14.The engagement lug 18 is dimensioned such that the first and the second edge 7a, 7b, which protrude by a distance a from the front side 7 of the housing half 3, by a distance c, the amount is smaller than the distance a, further protrude than one foremost edge of the engagement lug 18 of the brake member 14th

Der dem Innenraum zugekehrte Flächenbereich der vorderen Stirnseite 15 weist einen zentralen Kranz 22 auf, der koaxial mit dem Bremsglied 14 ausgefluchtet ist und eine innere radiale Abstützung für ein als Schraubenfeder ausgebildetes Federelement 20, das sich mit einem ersten Ende 20a gegen die Basisseite 5 der Gehäusehälfte 3 und mit einem zweiten Ende 20b axial gegen den zwischen den von Kranz 22 und Mantelfläche 16 begrenzten Ringabschnitt auf dem dem Innenraum zugekehrte Flächenbereich der vorderen Stirnseite 15 abstützt und von der Mantelfläche 16 zumindest in dessen proximalen Bereich radial umgeben ist. Die von dem Federelement 20 auf das Bremsglied 14 ausgeübte Kraft drückt dessen Stirnseite 15 in Richtung auf die Haltestange 24 vor, wobei das Federelement 20 entsprechend der Lage der Rastausnehmungen 25 durch die Betätigung der Fahrzeugtür zurückgedrängt und gespannt wird. An der inneren Stirnseite der Basis 5 ist gleichfalls ein Kranz 21 koaxial zu dem Kranz 22 angeordnet, der die Schraubenfeder 20 zentriert und radial von innen und über die Erstreckung des Kranzes 21 auch axial führt.The interior area facing the front end face 15 has a central ring 22 which is coaxially aligned with the braking member 14 and an inner radial support for a coil spring formed as a spring element 20, which extends with a first end 20a against the base side 5 of the housing half 3 and with a second end 20b axially against the limited between the ring 22 and shell surface 16 annular portion on the interior facing surface area of the front end side 15 and is surrounded by the lateral surface 16 at least in its proximal region radially. The force exerted by the spring element 20 on the brake member 14 force presses its end face 15 in the direction of the support rod 24, wherein the spring element 20 is pushed back according to the position of the recesses 25 by the operation of the vehicle door and tensioned. On the inner end face of the base 5, a ring 21 is also arranged coaxially with the ring 22, which centers the coil spring 20 and also axially from the inside and over the extension of the ring 21.

Die Mantelfläche 16 weist drei sich axial ausgehend von der Rückseite entlang des Bremsglieds 14 erstreckende, als Ausschnitte 27 ausgebildete Durchbrechungen auf (vgl. Fig. 4), wobei die Ausschnitte 27 derart entlang des Umfangs der Mantelfläche 16 angeordnet sind, dass jeweils zwei benachbarte Ausschnitte 27 um einen Winkel von 120° zueinander versetzt sind.The lateral surface 16 has three apertures extending axially from the rear side along the brake member 14 and designed as cutouts 27 (see FIG. 4), the cutouts 27 being arranged along the circumference of the lateral surface 16 such that two adjacent cutouts each 27 are offset by an angle of 120 ° to each other.

Die Ausschnitte 27 erstrecken sich ungefähr über die Hälfte der Länge des Bremsglieds 14. In der offenen Rückseite 17 des Bremsglieds 14 werden von den Ausschnitten 27 verbliebene Bereiche 27a freigeschnitten. In einem der Stirnseite 15 des Bremsglieds 14 zugewandten Bereich weisen die Ausschnitte 27 einen abgerundeten Bereich auf, wobei sich der Ausschnitt 27 im Verlauf von dem abgerundeten Bereich bis zu der Rückseite 17 aufweitet. Durch die Ausschnitte 27 ist das Bremsglied 14 zweckmäßig federnd oder nachgiebig ausgebildet, so dass bei Verkanten des Bremsglieds 14 die von der Haltestange 24 aufgrund der Türbewegung auf das Bremsglied 14 einwirkende Kraft dieses ein wenig deformieren kann und damit zurück in eine betätigbare Lage gelangen kann.The cutouts 27 extend approximately over half the length of the brake member 14. In the open rear side 17 of the brake member 14, remaining portions 27a of the cutouts 27 are cut free. In a region facing the front side 15 of the brake member 14, the cutouts 27 have a rounded region, whereby the cutout 27 widens in the course of the rounded region up to the rear side 17. Through the cutouts 27, the brake member 14 is suitably resilient or yielding, so that upon tilting of the brake member 14, the forces acting on the brake member 14 from the support rod 24 due to the door movement force this can deform a little and thus can get back into an operable position.

Die Mantelfläche 16 weist außenseitig eine axial verlaufende äußere Führungsriffelung 16 aus alternierend vorgesehenen, jeweils abgerundeten Nuten und Rippen auf, die mit einer komplementär ausgebildeten inneren Führungsriffelung in dem Hohlzylinder der Gehäusehälfte 3 zusammengreift und derart eine Linearführung für das Bremsglied 14 definiert, wobei die Materialien der entsprechenden Teile im Hinblick auf den Gleitkontakt optimiert sind.The lateral surface 16 has on the outside an axially extending outer guide corrugation 16 of alternately provided, each rounded grooves and ribs, which engages with a complementary trained inner guide corrugation in the hollow cylinder of the housing half 3 and so defines a linear guide for the brake member 14, wherein the materials of corresponding parts are optimized with respect to the sliding contact.

Entlang der axialen Erstreckung der Mantelfläche 16 des Bremsglieds 14 sind ferner zwei gegenüber der Führungsriffelung erhöhte Rippen gegenüberliegend um 180° versetzt vorgesehen, die mit entsprechenden axial in dem Mantel 6 der Gehäusehälfte 3, 4 ausgebildeten vertieften Nuten 28a zusammenwirken (vgl. Fig. 5) und damit eine Verdrehsicherung 28 definieren, um einen lagerichtigen Einbau der Bremsglieder 14 in dem entsprechenden Gehäuseteil 3, 4 sicherzustellen.Along the axial extension of the lateral surface 16 of the brake member 14 are also two opposite the guide ribs raised ribs opposite 180 ° offset, which cooperate with corresponding axially formed in the shell 6 of the housing half 3, 4 recessed grooves 28a (see Fig .. 5) and thus define an anti-rotation 28 to ensure a correct installation of the brake members 14 in the corresponding housing part 3, 4.

Die Länge des Bremsglieds 14 ist kürzer als die Tiefe des Hohlzylinders, so dass die Rückseite 17 stets einen Abstand b zu der Basisseite 5 der Gehäusehälfte 3 aufweist, um den das Bremsglied 14 innerhalb der Gehäusehälfte 3 unter Komprimieren des Federelements 20 verschiebbar ist.The length of the brake member 14 is shorter than the depth of the hollow cylinder, so that the rear side 17 always has a distance b to the base side 5 of the housing half 3, by which the brake member 14 within the housing half 3 by compressing the spring element 20 is displaceable.

Ein proximaler Bereich der Mantelfläche 16, gegenüber dem die Eingriffsnase 18 vorsteht, ist bei entspanntem Federelement 20 in etwa mit der kreisförmigen Freigabeöffnung 13 des Hohlzylinders ausgerichtet.A proximal region of the lateral surface 16, with respect to which the engagement lug 18 protrudes, is aligned approximately with the circular release opening 13 of the hollow cylinder when the spring element 20 is relaxed.

Der Türfeststeller 1 besteht aus zwei identischen Gehäusehälfte 3, 4, die mit der jeweiligen Frontseite 7 aneinander zugekehrt miteinander verbunden sind, wobei der erste und der zweite hervorstehende Rand 7a, 7b der beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 bündig miteinander in Kontakt sind und für jede der beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 eine Schnittfläche 2a definieren. Durch die beiden Schnittflächen 2a wird eine Verbindungsebene V für das Gehäuse 2 definiert (vgl. Fig. 2), wobei die beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 symmetrisch in Bezug auf die Verbindungsebene V miteinander verbunden sind, insbesondere weisen beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 je ein Bremsglied 14 auf.The door lock 1 consists of two identical housing half 3, 4, which are connected to each other facing each other facing each other, wherein the first and the second protruding edge 7a, 7b of the two housing halves 3, 4 are flush with each other and for each of two housing halves 3, 4 define a cutting surface 2a. A connection plane V for the housing 2 is defined by the two cut surfaces 2a (see Fig. 2), wherein the two housing halves 3, 4 are interconnected symmetrically with respect to the connection plane V, in particular, two housing halves 3, 4 each have a braking member 14 on.

Die jeweils definierten Spalt 10 der zwei Gehäusehälften 3, 4 ergänzen sich zu der Öffnung 23 für die Haltestange 24. Die Öffnung 23 weist eine rechteckige Form auf und ist von den sich zu einer Eingrenzung für die Öffnung 23 ergänzenden einzelnen Rändern 7a, 7b, 7c und 7d umgrenzt, wobei die Ränder 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d der einzelnen Gehäusehälften 3, 4 - als Baueinheit gesehen - jeweils nur einen Abschnitt, vorliegend die Hälfte, der Öffnung 23 des Gehäuses 2 begrenzen.The respective defined gap 10 of the two housing halves 3, 4 complement each other to the opening 23 for the support rod 24. The opening 23 has a rectangular shape and is of the complementary to a confinement for the opening 23 individual edges 7a, 7b, 7c and 7d bounded, wherein the edges 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d of the individual housing halves 3, 4 - as a structural unit - each define only a portion, in this case the half, of the opening 23 of the housing 2.

Die Öffnung 23 des Gehäuses 2 wird von einer Haltestange 24 mit einem mittleren Bereich durchsetzt. Die Haltestange 24 weist ein rechteckiges äußeres Profil auf und ist als ein Vollteil, zum Beispiel aus Hartgummi mit einem metallenen Kern oder ähnlichem, ausgebildet. Die Haltestange 24 weist im wesentlichen eine Breite auf, die größer ist als zweimal der Abstand c des Bremsglieds 14 zu dem ersten und zweiten Rand 7a, 7b, wobei durch die Abstände c ein Zwischenbereich bezüglich der sich axial gegenüberstehenden Bremsglieder 14 definiert ist. Die Dimensionen der Öffnung 23 sind den Dimensionen des mittleren Bereichs der Haltestange 24 angepasst und kleiner als Endbereiche 24a, 24b, die zum schwenkbaren Befestigen der Haltestange 24 an dem jeweiligen Türanordnungsteil und als ein Anfangs- bzw. Endausschlag für die Türöffnung vorgesehen sind, wobei ein Endbereich 24b mittels einer Bolzens 24c schwenkbar an der Haltestange 24 angeordnet ist.The opening 23 of the housing 2 is penetrated by a support rod 24 having a central region. The support bar 24 has a rectangular outer profile and is formed as a solid part, for example, hard rubber with a metal core or the like. The support rod 24 has substantially a width which is greater than twice the distance c of the brake member 14 to the first and second edges 7a, 7b, wherein by the distances c an intermediate region with respect to the axially opposed brake members 14 is defined. The dimensions of the opening 23 are adapted to the dimensions of the central portion of the support rod 24 and smaller than end portions 24a, 24b, for pivotally securing the support rod 24 are provided on the respective door assembly part and as a start or end deflection for the door opening, wherein an end portion 24b by means of a bolt 24c is pivotally mounted on the support rod 24.

In dem Außenumfang der Haltestange 24 sind zwei Rastausnehmungen 25 vorgesehen, die als Einwölbungen in der Haltestange 24 ausgebildet sind, wobei je eine Rastausnehmung 25 auf einer Seite der Haltestange 24 angeordnet ist. Die Form der Einwölbungen ist dem Verlauf der Wulst der an den Bremsgliedern 14 angeordneten Eingriffsnasen 18 angepasst. Die Bremsglieder 14 werden von den Druckfedern 20 in Richtung der Haltestange 24 vorgespannt und stehen mit den Rastausnehmungen 25 der Haltestange 24 in Reibkontakt. Die Rastausnehmungen 25 definieren eine bevorzugte Festhalteposition für die Tür. Es versteht sich, dass an der Haltestange 24 mehrere Rastausnehmungen 25 angeordnet sein können, die mehrere bevorzugte Feststellposition für die Tür definieren.In the outer periphery of the support rod 24 has two recesses 25 are provided, which are formed as indentations in the support rod 24, wherein a respective detent recess 25 is disposed on one side of the support rod 24. The shape of the indentations is adapted to the profile of the bead of the engagement lugs 18 arranged on the brake members 14. The brake members 14 are biased by the compression springs 20 in the direction of the support rod 24 and are in frictional contact with the recesses 25 of the support rod 24. The recesses 25 define a preferred retaining position for the door. It is understood that a plurality of latching recesses 25 may be arranged on the support rod 24, which define a plurality of preferred locking position for the door.

Beim Öffnen der Tür wird die Haltestange 24 durch die Öffnung 23 des Gehäuses 2 verrückt, wobei die durch die Druckfedern 20 vorgespannten Bremsglieder 14 in einen rückwärtigen Bereich der jeweiligen Gehäusehälfte 3, 4 verschoben werden und der Reibkontakt der Bremsglieder 14 mit der Haltestange 24 wird zu einem Gleitkontakt, so dass die Haltestange 24 ohne großen Kraftaufwand durch die Öffnung des Gehäuses 2 geführt werden kann. Wird die Bewegung der Tür gestoppt, wird der Gleitkontakt wieder zu einem Reibkontakt und die Bremsglieder 14 rasten in einer der Rastausnehmungen 25 der Haltestange 24 ein, wobei die beiden Bremsglieder 14 die Haltestange 24 an den Rastausnehmungen 25 beidseitig mit der durch die Druckfeder 20 vermittelten Kraft beaufschlagen und fixieren, und somit die Tür sicher feststellen.When opening the door, the support rod 24 is crazy by the opening 23 of the housing 2, wherein the prestressed by the compression springs 20 brake members 14 are moved in a rear region of the respective housing half 3, 4 and the frictional contact of the brake members 14 with the support rod 24 is to a sliding contact, so that the support rod 24 can be performed without great effort through the opening of the housing 2. If the movement of the door is stopped, the sliding contact is again a frictional contact and the brake members 14 engage in one of the recesses 25 of the support rod 24, wherein the two brake members 14, the support rod 24 on the recesses 25 on both sides with the force mediated by the compression spring 20 apply and fix, and thus determine the door safely.

Bei dem Zusammenbau des Türfeststeller 1 werden zunächst die beiden Bremsglieder 14 mit in den Hohlraum eingesetzten Druckfedern 20 in die beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 eingesetzt. Dann wird die Haltestange 24 zwischen die beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 in der Weise gebracht, dass der mittlere Bereich der Haltestange 24 von der Öffnung 23 des Gehäuses 2 umgriffen wird. Während des Verbindens der beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 mittels der Niete 30 werden die Ausrichtelemete 11 mit den Führungselemente 12 passend in Eingriff gebracht, um die gewünschte Ausrichtung der beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 zueinander zu erhalten.In the assembly of the door lock 1, the two brake members 14 are first inserted with compression springs 20 inserted into the cavity in the two housing halves 3, 4. Then the support rod 24 is placed between the two housing halves 3, 4 in such a way that the middle Area of the support rod 24 is encompassed by the opening 23 of the housing 2. During the joining of the two housing halves 3, 4 by means of the rivet 30, the Ausrichtelemete 11 are brought into engagement with the guide elements 12 in order to obtain the desired alignment of the two housing halves 3, 4 to each other.

Die beiden Gehäusehälften 3, 4 werden an den hervorstehenden Rändern 7a, 7b entlang der durch die Schnittflächen 2a definierten Verbindungsebene V durch die beiden Niete 30 miteinander verbunden. Die Bremsglieder 14 kommen dabei mit der Haltestange 24 in Kontakt, da der Abstand zwischen den beiden Bremsgliedern 14 zweimal dem Abstand c entspricht und die Breite der Haltestange 24 größer ist. Dadurch werden zugleich die Bremsglieder 14 entgegen der Kraftwirkrichtung der Druckfedern 20 in den Gehäusehälften 3, 4 verschoben und somit die Bremsglieder 14 durch die Druckfedern 20 in Richtung der Haltestange 24 vorgespannt. Danach kann ein Anbringen des Türfeststellers 1 an das Kraftfahrzeug mittels Schrauben in den Bohrungen 9 erfolgen.The two housing halves 3, 4 are connected to each other at the protruding edges 7a, 7b along the connection plane V defined by the cut surfaces 2a through the two rivets 30. The brake members 14 come into contact with the support rod 24, since the distance between the two brake members 14 twice corresponds to the distance c and the width of the support rod 24 is greater. As a result, at the same time the brake members 14 are moved against the force acting direction of the compression springs 20 in the housing halves 3, 4 and thus the brake members 14 biased by the compression springs 20 in the direction of the support rod 24. Thereafter, attaching the door arrester 1 to the motor vehicle by means of screws in the holes 9 done.

In Fig. 6 ist ein zweites Ausführungsbeispiel eines Türfeststellers gezeigt. Dieselben Bezugszeichen wie in dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel bezeichnen dieselben oder strukturell vergleichbare Teile. Da die Funktionsweise der beiden Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung vergleichbar ist, wird im Weiteren im wesentlichen auf die Unterschiede der beiden Ausführungsbeispiele eingegangen.6, a second embodiment of a door arrester is shown. The same reference numerals as in the first embodiment denote the same or structurally comparable parts. Since the mode of operation of the two exemplary embodiments of the invention is comparable, the differences between the two embodiments will be discussed below.

Im Unterschied zu dem in Fig. 1 bis 5 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel weisen die in Fig. 6 gezeigten ein Gehäuse 2' bildende Gehäusehälften 3', 4' keine Bohrungen 9 zum Befestigen des Gehäuses 2' auf. Es sind vielmehr zwei Führungsabschnitte 40 vorgesehen, die senkrecht zu den Rändern 7a der beiden Gehäusehälften 3', 4' ausgerichtet sind. Die Führungsabschnitte 40 fluchten mit der jeweiligen Frontseite 7 der Gehäusehälften 3', 4'. Der Führungsabschnitt 40 ist bezüglich der Symmetrieachse S der ersten Gehäusehälfte 3' seitlich in Richtung des Rands 7b versetzt angeordnet.In contrast to the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the housing halves 3 ', 4' forming a housing 2 'shown in FIG. 6 have no bores 9 for fastening the housing 2'. Rather, two guide portions 40 are provided, which are aligned perpendicular to the edges 7a of the two housing halves 3 ', 4'. The guide portions 40 are aligned with the respective front side 7 of the housing halves 3 ', 4'. The guide section 40 is offset relative to the axis of symmetry S of the first housing half 3 'laterally in the direction of the edge 7b.

Der Führungsabschnitt 40 weist eine Rippe 40a und eine Nut 41 auf. Die Nut 41 verläuft in einem Abstand parallel zu der Frontseite 7 der Gehäusehälfte 3', wobei der Abstand im Verlauf von dem Rand 7a in Richtung des Rands 7b wächst. Die Nut 41 ist progressiv ausgebildet.The guide portion 40 has a rib 40 a and a groove 41. The groove 41 extends at a distance parallel to the front side 7 of the housing half 3 ', wherein the distance increases in the course of the edge 7a in the direction of the edge 7b. The groove 41 is formed progressively.

Der Türfeststeller wird im Unterschied zu dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel nun folgendermaßen an dem Kraftfahrzeug angebracht. In dem zum Befestigen des Türfeststeller vorgesehenen Bereich weist das Kraftfahrzeug einen Durchbruch auf, wobei die Dimensionen des Durchbruchs den Dimensionen der Öffnung 23 des Gehäuses 2' entsprechen. Der Türfeststeller wird an den Durchbruch geführt, wobei die Nuten 41 mit dem kleinsten Abstand zu der Frontseite 7 an dem Durchbruch anliegen. Die Nuten 41 können in den Durchbruch des Kraftfahrzeugs eingesetzt werden. Anschließend wird der Türfeststeller im Uhrzeigersinn gedreht und die progressiv ausgebildeten Nuten 41 und der Rand des Durchbruchs des Kraftfahrzeugs bilden einen Kraftschluß, wobei die Rippen 40a innerhalb der Öffnung geführt werden.The door lock, unlike the first embodiment, is now attached to the motor vehicle as follows. In the area provided for fastening the door lock, the motor vehicle has a breakthrough, wherein the dimensions of the opening correspond to the dimensions of the opening 23 of the housing 2 '. The door arrester is guided to the opening, wherein the grooves 41 bear with the smallest distance to the front side 7 at the opening. The grooves 41 can be inserted into the opening of the motor vehicle. Subsequently, the door lock is rotated clockwise and the progressively formed grooves 41 and the edge of the opening of the motor vehicle form a frictional connection, wherein the ribs 40 a are guided within the opening.

Alternativ wäre es auch möglich die Progressivität der Nut 41 in umgekehrter Richtung anzuordnen, wobei sich der Abstand im Verlauf von dem Rand 7a in Richtung des Rands 7b verkleinert. Zum Befestigen des Türfeststellers ist nach dem Einsetzen in den Durchbruch des Kraftfahrzeugs dann eine Drehung gegen den Uhrzeigersinn erforderlich.Alternatively, it would also be possible to arrange the progressivity of the groove 41 in the opposite direction, wherein the distance in the course of the edge 7a decreases in the direction of the edge 7b. To attach the door arrester then a rotation counterclockwise is required after insertion into the opening of the motor vehicle.

Es versteht sich, das die beiden oben beschriebenen Auführungsbeispiele in der Weise kombiniert werden können, dass der Türfeststeller zunächst mittels der Drehbewegung mit dem Kraftfahrzeug verbunden wird und dann mittels der Schrauben, die in an den Gehäusehälften vorgesehenen Bohrungen angeordnet sind, weiter sicher befestigt wird.It is understood that the two Auführungsbeispiele described above can be combined in such a way that the door lock is first connected by means of the rotational movement with the motor vehicle and then further securely fastened by means of the screws which are arranged in holes provided on the housing halves.
