Definitions
- the invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock, with a locking mechanism, and with a lever system with at least two angularly connected to each other and interacting levers.
- the mentioned lever system may be an actuating lever system and / or a locking lever system.
- a motor vehicle door lock is described, which is equipped inter alia with an internal locking lever and a locking main lever.
- an inside locking button works with the interposition of a linkage.
- the inside lock lever and the lock main lever are arranged perpendicular to each other.
- the inner locking lever engages with a head in an articulated manner in a receptacle of the locking main lever.
- Such an embodiment has proven itself in principle.
- problems of a housing seal are not addressed.
- a connection of the inside lock lever with the inside lock button in question must be made. This requires a more or less large opening in a housing in which the essential components of the motor vehicle door lock are taken protected.
- US 2008/078219 A1 such as US 2009/218830 A1 describe a motor vehicle door lock according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention is based on the technical problem of further developing such a motor vehicle door lock in such a way that a still largely dense housing, in particular in the region of an inevitable housing opening, is observed with a simple assembly.
- a generic motor vehicle door lock in the invention is characterized in that the two angularly connected to each other and interacting levers are pivotally coupled to each other by a releasable connector in the previously mentioned housing opening or are pivotally, wherein the one lever Pin has, which engages in a pocket on the other lever, and wherein the pocket is perpendicular to the one lever and extends into the housing opening.
- the invention thus makes use of a special connection of the two levers connected to each other at an angle, namely a releasable one Plug connection.
- a connection between the two levers can be easily realized and, on the other hand, can even be reversed if necessary, for example in the case of a required repair of the motor vehicle door lock and / or an associated motor vehicle door.
- the questionable releasable plug connection is realized in the region of the housing opening.
- the connector can be easily made and released if necessary, because it is directly accessible. Incidentally, it is possible to provide with the help of the connector in the region of the housing opening for a substantial closure of the housing opening in question can.
- one of the two levers connected to one another and interacting with each other has a pin.
- This lever may logically be referred to as a pin lever.
- the other lever has a pocket, in which engages the pin.
- this lever is referred to below as a pocket lever.
- the bag is open at the side and the pin engages from the side into the bag.
- the releasable plug-in connection is designed as a lateral clamping connection.
- the pocket of the pocket lever is usually equipped with spring-loaded side cheeks for receiving the pin of the pin lever.
- the pin is releasably held in the pocket between the two spring-loaded side cheeks. It is easily possible to insert the pin between the spring-loaded side cheeks of the bag and, if necessary, to remove it from the thus realized clamping seat or the lateral clamping connection.
- the bag is generally perpendicular to the one lever or the pocket lever.
- the interpretation is usually made so that the bag extends from the pocket lever, starting in the housing opening. This allows the detachable connector in the Realize the area of the housing opening easily.
- the bag ensures - at least in part - that the housing opening wholly or partially undergoes a cover.
- the bag is equipped with a rising from the housing opening to the housing interior extending channel for receiving the pin.
- the lever with the pin is inserted or inserted into the housing opening and can subsequently be inserted into the channel or the channel following the pin following the course of the pocket.
- the bag usually has a side opening slot for the pin.
- the channel in question of the pocket for receiving the pin is generally perpendicular to the housing opening. In the same vertical direction then takes place the union of the pin lever with the pocket lever, and simply by the fact that the pin is inserted vertically into the pocket and thereby rebound the side cheeks and enclose the pin after its insertion. Since the two side cheeks are spaced apart by the opening slot therebetween, the pin can slide along the opening slot in unifying both levers.
- the pin lever is rotatably connected after its union with the pocket lever defining a rotation axis with the housing.
- the pin lever has an opening at one end, which with an associated opening in the housing for Cover is brought. Through the two openings covering a split pin or mandrel is then defined by defining the axis of rotation in question.
- the pin lever is usually designed as an angle lever. In fact, it has proven useful if the pin lever has an L-shape. Either way, the angle lever is designed with a rotating arm and a connecting arm.
- the rotary arm carries the end of the cotter pin or mandrel or end has the axis of rotation for actuating the pin lever.
- the connecting arm is equipped at its end with a connection eye or a similar connection device, to this end, for example, to produce a linkage or other actuator for connection to, inter alia, an internal locking button or other internal locking device.
- the rotary arm carries the pin, so that rotary arm and pin are predominantly arranged in the interior of the housing. That is, the rotary arm immersed substantially perpendicularly through the housing opening in the housing and is rotatably connected to the housing by means of the mandrel or the splint on its axis of rotation.
- the pin of the pin lever in the region of the housing opening, where it is releasably engaged in the pocket of the pocket lever.
- the design will be such that the housing opening and a pocket opening are adapted to each other in terms of size. As a result, any remaining free space of the housing opening is reduced to a minimum next to the pocket opening, so that water, dirt or the like hardly find an inlet opening in the housing.
- the pin lever is partially disposed inside the housing with its rotary arm.
- the pocket lever is completely inside the case.
- the connection arm occurs the pin lever to the outside and, as it were, protrudes with respect to the housing opening in order to provide the desired connection of the pin lever with, for example, the inner locking button.
- the pin lever and the pocket lever are each advantageously designed as a locking lever and the lever system is a locking lever system. It may be in detail the interpretation to choose so that the pin lever is designed as an internal locking lever, while the pocket lever is a locking main lever or a central locking lever.
- the bag or the rebounding sidewalls of the bag may be equipped with latching formations and latching notches.
- latching formations and latching notches it is even conceivable to realize a plurality of such latching formations and latching notches in order to define different positions of the journal compared to the pocket or the channel extending inside the housing.
- this arranged in the direction of the channel latching formations and Rastausformungen it is even conceivable to fix the pin in different "height positions" compared to the channel in this releasably.
- different installation situations of the lever in question can be mastered, for example in the case of different motor vehicle door locks, different housings etc.
- a motor vehicle door lock which convinces by a simple and functional installation of individual levers. In particular, it is about improving water management.
- This is achieved in such a way that the motor vehicle door lock including housing can be completed and, for example, sealed. Only after this there is the possibility according to the invention, for example, to interactively connect the inner locking lever with an inner locking lever present in the interior. This makes assembly much easier and reduces costs. That is, the installation of the inside locking lever takes place in the example case after the cover of the associated motor vehicle door lock and the assembly of the housing.
- the housing opening only has to accommodate the pocket of the pocket lever, in which the pin of the pin lever is inserted more or less vertically and thus save space.
- the housing opening has to ensure that the pin lever can perform its pivotal movements required for actuating the pocket lever about the axis of rotation realized on its pivot arm. Since, in this context and according to the invention, the pin and the pocket enter into the described releasable plug connection in the region of the housing opening, whereas the axis of rotation is located on the end side of the rotary arm, the greatest possible lever arm is made available overall. This lever arm extends virtually over the entire extent of the housing from the bottom or a lock case to the cover or housing cover. As a result, it is possible to work with relatively small travel ranges of the inner locking lever, and nevertheless the locking main lever or central locking lever actuated with the aid of the inner locking lever can be correctly changed in its position.
- a motor vehicle door lock which initially has a housing 1 with a partition wall 2.
- a in the rear view after Fig. 2 shown locking mechanism 3, 4 and a locking lever 5, a clutch lever 6 and an operating lever 7 according to the front view Fig. 1 added.
- the drive unit 10, 11, 12 is composed of a motor or electric motor 10, a drive worm 11 and a worm wheel 12 which operates on the locking lever or locking main lever 5 and this in at least the positions "unlocked” and “locked” motor transferred.
- the inside lock lever 8 and the outside lock lever 9 are also capable of transferring the lock lever 5 to the positions in question “unlocked” and "locked”, respectively.
- Fig. 1 In the illustration after Fig. 1 is the locking lever 5 in the "unlocked” position.
- the locking lever 5 In order to transfer the locking lever 5 in its "locked” position, the locking lever 5 must be pivoted about its associated axis of rotation 13 in the counterclockwise direction, as an associated arrow in the Fig. 1 suggests. This is accomplished either by the electric motor 10 being acted upon accordingly, so that with the aid of the worm wheel 12 the locking lever 5 experiences a corresponding counter-clockwise action about the axis of rotation 13 through the toothings realized and meshed at this point. Or it is also possible that the inner locking lever 8 in the in Fig. 1 indicated arrow direction is acted upon.
- the inner locking lever 8 pivots about its axis of rotation 14, which opens again in a counterclockwise movement of the locking lever 5.
- the inner locking lever 8 engages with a pin 15 in a mounted on or on the locking lever 5 pin receptacle 16 a.
- Fig. 1 indicated actuation of the inner locking lever 8 in the arrow direction in a rectified movement of the pin 15, which follows the hereby interacting pin receptacle 16.
- the locking lever 5 is pivoted counterclockwise and transferred from its formerly assumed position "unlocked” in the position "locked".
- the inner locking lever 8 may be equipped and connected with an inner locking button, not shown be similar to that already described in the introduction DE 39 08 183 A1 is shown in detail.
- the locking lever 5 can be pivoted by means of the outer locking lever 9.
- the outer locking lever 9 likes a movement in the Fig. 1 experienced indicated arrow direction.
- the outer locking lever 9 is connected, for example, with a lock cylinder.
- a movement associated therewith ensures that the outer lock lever 9 is pivoted in the direction of the arrow about the axis of rotation 13 common to the lock lever 5 and acts on the lock lever 5 in the counterclockwise direction.
- the locking lever 5 or locking main lever 5 In addition to the locking lever 5 or locking main lever 5, not only the outer locking lever 9 is mounted on the rotation axis 13, but also a catch 3 of the locking mechanism 3, 4. Actually, the locking mechanism 3, 4 is on the one hand the catch 3 and on the other hand the catch 3 interacting and incident in the closed rotary latch 3 pawl 4 of conventional design together. It can be seen that the locking mechanism 3, 4 on the one hand and the locking lever or locking lever 6 and a trigger lever 7 on the other hand are received in the housing 1, but on opposite sides with respect to the partition wall 2 arranged therebetween.
- the two aforementioned levers 5, 8 are pivotally coupled together by a releasable plug connection 15, 16 in the region of a housing opening 17.
- a releasable plug connection 15, 16 in the region of a housing opening 17.
- the inner locking lever 8 is equipped with the pin 15 which protrudes perpendicularly from the inner locking lever 8.
- the inner locking lever 8 is designed as a pin lever 8.
- the pin 15 engages in the pin receiving means 16 or a pocket 16 formed thereby on the other lever 5, namely laterally.
- the locking lever or locking main lever 5 is designed overall as a pocket lever 5.
- the pocket or pin receptacle 16 has two lateral side cheeks 16b and a base 16a to which the two side cheeks 16b are connected. Since the two side cheeks 16b rise substantially perpendicular to the base 16a of the pocket 16, a substantially U-shaped configuration of the pocket 16 is realized in cross-section. As a result, the pocket 16 has a side opening slot 18 on its side opposite the base 16a. Consequently, the two side cheeks 16b are spaced apart, taking into account the interposed opening slot 18.
- This lateral opening slot 18 ensures that the pin 15 is only partially immersed laterally in the pocket 16 and can also dip and is otherwise connected to the pin lever or inner locking lever 8. Since the pocket 16 stands perpendicular to the locking lever or locking main lever respectively the pocket lever 5, a union between the inside locking lever 8 and the locking lever 5 takes place in that the inside locking lever or pin lever 8 with its pin 15 is substantially perpendicular in comparison to the drawing plane Fig. 1 is inserted into the associated pocket 16. In this process, the two side cheeks 16b spring back and surround the pin 15 immersed in the pocket 16 releasably. For releasable connection 16b Rastausform 11, 19 and associated Rasteinformmaschine 20 are provided in the longitudinal direction of the respective resilient side cheeks. In this way, it is even possible to fix the pin 15 releasably in different "heights" within the pocket 16, as the longitudinal section through the pocket 16 according to Fig. 3b makes it clear.
- the housing opening 17 is at least partially filled by the pocket 16 or its pocket opening 21. Since the pocket opening 21 in turn is almost completely filled by the pin 15 in conjunction with the latching formations 19, the housing opening 17 undergoes a significant closure through the protruding into the housing opening 17 pocket 16 with its pocket opening 21st
- the pocket 16 extends from the housing opening 17 into the housing interior. This is formed between the two side walls 16b in conjunction with the base 16a of the pocket 16 a total of a channel for receiving the pin 15, which also extends starting from the housing opening 17 perpendicular to the housing interior, in the direction of the locking lever or Locking main 5 out.
- the locking lever or locking main lever 5 or the pocket lever 5 is located completely inside the housing 1.
- the inner locking lever or pin lever 8 projects at least partially out of the housing in question 1 and is located partially outside the housing 1. Because the releasable plug connection 15, 16 between the two levers 5, 8 is realized in the region of the housing opening 17, can the motor vehicle door lock shown including a cover 22 for the housing 1 are completely (pre) mounted.
- the axis of rotation 14 is at the end of a rotary arm 8a of the pin lever 8 at the bottom of the housing 1, extending from the axis of rotation 14 to the pin 15 extending lever arm almost over the entire thickness S of the housing 1.
- This can be with the help of the inner locking lever. 8 relatively large torques on the locking main lever 5 with the interposition of the releasable plug connection 15, 16 exercise, so that only small pivoting movements of the inner locking lever 8 about the rotation axis in question 14 are required to pivot the locking main lever 5.
- the housing opening 17 can be kept relatively small to allow the pivoting movements of the inner locking lever 8 in question.
- rotary arm 8a with the end defined axis of rotation 14 of the pin lever 8 additionally has a connecting arm 8b, which receives a connection via, for example, a linkage with an inner locking knob.
- the rotary arm 8a of the pin lever 8 carries the pin 15th
- the pin lever or inner locking lever 8 as an angle lever, preferably L-shaped angle lever designed.
- the locking lever or locking main lever 5 is a surface lever with a predominantly planar extension parallel to the partition 2. This is of course only to be understood as illustrative and not restrictive.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kraftfahrzeugtürverschluss, mit einem Gesperre, und mit einem Hebelsystem mit wenigstens zwei winkelig aneinander angeschlossenen und miteinander wechselwirkenden Hebeln.The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock, with a locking mechanism, and with a lever system with at least two angularly connected to each other and interacting levers.
Bei dem angesprochenen Hebelsystem mag es sich um ein Betätigungshebelsystem und/oder ein Verriegelungshebelsystem handeln. Im gattungsbildenden Stand der Technik nach der
Um Stellbewegungen des Innenverriegelungsknopfes über den Innenverriegelungshebel auf den Verriegelungshaupthebel zu übertragen, greift der Innenverriegelungshebel mit einem Kopf gelenkig in eine Aufnahme des Verriegelungshaupthebels ein. Eine solche Ausgestaltung hat sich grundsätzlich bewährt. Allerdings werden Probleme einer Gehäuseabdichtung nicht angesprochen. Tatsächlich muss bei Realisierung einer Innenverriegelung mit beispielsweise einem Innenverriegelungsknopf eine Verbindung des Innenverriegelungshebels mit dem fraglichen Innenverriegelungsknopf bzw. einem zwischengeschalteten Gestänge hergestellt werden. Das setzt eine mehr oder minder große Öffnung in einem Gehäuse voraus, in welchem die wesentlichen Bestandteile des Kraftfahrzeugtürverschlusses geschützt aufgenommen werden.In order to transmit actuating movements of the inner locking button to the locking main lever via the inner locking lever, the inner locking lever engages with a head in an articulated manner in a receptacle of the locking main lever. Such an embodiment has proven itself in principle. However, problems of a housing seal are not addressed. In fact, in the case of realizing an inside lock with, for example, an inside lock button, a connection of the inside lock lever with the inside lock button in question must be made. This requires a more or less large opening in a housing in which the essential components of the motor vehicle door lock are taken protected.
An dieser Stelle hat es bereits Ansätze im weiteren Stand der Technik nach der
Bei dieser Ausführungsform fällt auf, dass die Montage relativ kompliziert ist, weil das endseitig der Verriegelungsstange vorhandene Kupplungsstück letztlich auf eine Steckachse aufgesetzt werden muss, die seinerseits mit dem Verriegelungshebel verbunden ist. Solche Maßnahmen erfordern besonderes Geschick bei der Montage und/oder zusätzliche Werkzeuge. Dadurch wird der Zusammenbau kompliziert und kostenträchtig. Hier setzt die Erfindung ein.In this embodiment, it is noticeable that the assembly is relatively complicated, because the end of the locking rod coupling member must ultimately be placed on a plug-in axis, which in turn is connected to the locking lever. Such measures require special skill in assembly and / or additional tools. This makes the assembly complicated and costly. This is where the invention starts.
Der Erfindung liegt das technische Problem zugrunde, einen derartigen Kraftfahrzeugtürverschluss so weiterzuentwickeln, dass bei einfacher Montage ein dennoch weitgehend dichtes Gehäuse insbesondere im Bereich einer zwangsläufigen Gehäuseöffnung beobachtet wird.The invention is based on the technical problem of further developing such a motor vehicle door lock in such a way that a still largely dense housing, in particular in the region of an inevitable housing opening, is observed with a simple assembly.
Zur Lösung dieser technischen Problemstellung ist ein gattungsgemäßer Kraftfahrzeugtürverschluss im Rahmen der Erfindung dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die beiden winklig aneinander angeschlossenen und miteinander wechselwirkenden Hebel durch eine lösbare Steckverbindung im Bereich der zuvor bereits angesprochenen Gehäuseöffnung miteinander drehgelenkig gekoppelt sind bzw. werden, wobei der eine Hebel einen Zapfen aufweist, welcher in eine Tasche am anderen Hebel eingreift, und wobei die Tasche senkrecht auf dem einen Hebel aufsteht und sich bis in die Gehäuseöffnung erstreckt.To solve this technical problem, a generic motor vehicle door lock in the invention is characterized in that the two angularly connected to each other and interacting levers are pivotally coupled to each other by a releasable connector in the previously mentioned housing opening or are pivotally, wherein the one lever Pin has, which engages in a pocket on the other lever, and wherein the pocket is perpendicular to the one lever and extends into the housing opening.
Die Erfindung greift also auf eine spezielle Verbindung der beiden winklig aneinander angeschlossenen Hebel zurück, nämlich eine lösbare Steckverbindung. Dadurch lässt sich die Verbindung zwischen den beiden Hebeln einerseits einfach realisieren und kann andererseits bei Bedarf sogar wieder aufgehoben werden, beispielsweise bei einer erforderlichen Reparatur des Kraftfahrzeugtürverschlusses und/oder einer zugehörigen Kraftfahrzeugtür. Hinzu kommt, dass die fragliche lösbare Steckverbindung im Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung realisiert wird. Dadurch kann die Steckverbindung einfach hergestellt und bei Bedarf wieder gelöst werden, weil sie unmittelbar zugänglich ist. Im Übrigen besteht die Möglichkeit, mit Hilfe der Steckverbindung im Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung für einen weitgehenden Verschluss der fraglichen Gehäuseöffnung sorgen zu können.The invention thus makes use of a special connection of the two levers connected to each other at an angle, namely a releasable one Plug connection. As a result, on the one hand, the connection between the two levers can be easily realized and, on the other hand, can even be reversed if necessary, for example in the case of a required repair of the motor vehicle door lock and / or an associated motor vehicle door. In addition, the questionable releasable plug connection is realized in the region of the housing opening. As a result, the connector can be easily made and released if necessary, because it is directly accessible. Incidentally, it is possible to provide with the help of the connector in the region of the housing opening for a substantial closure of the housing opening in question can.
Erfindungsgemäß weist der eine der beiden winklig aneinander angeschlossenen und miteinander wechselwirkenden Hebel einen Zapfen auf. Dieser Hebel mag folgerichtig als Zapfenhebel bezeichnet werden. Der andere Hebel verfügt demgegenüber über eine Tasche, in welche der Zapfen eingreift. Zur Unterscheidung von dem Zapfenhebel wird dieser Hebel im nachfolgenden als Taschenhebel bezeichnet. Die Tasche ist seitlich geöffnet und der Zapfen greift von der Seite her in die Tasche ein. Dadurch ist die lösbare Steckverbindung gleichsam als seitliche Klemmverbindung ausgelegt.According to the invention, one of the two levers connected to one another and interacting with each other has a pin. This lever may logically be referred to as a pin lever. In contrast, the other lever has a pocket, in which engages the pin. To distinguish it from the pin lever, this lever is referred to below as a pocket lever. The bag is open at the side and the pin engages from the side into the bag. As a result, the releasable plug-in connection is designed as a lateral clamping connection.
Die Tasche des Taschenhebels ist in der Regel mit auffedernden Seitenwangen zur Aufnahme des Zapfens des Zapfenhebels ausgerüstet. Auf diese Weise wird der Zapfen lösbar in der Tasche zwischen den beiden auffedernden Seitenwangen gehalten. Es ist problemlos möglich, den Zapfen zwischen die auffedernden Seitenwangen der Tasche einzustecken und bei Bedarf wieder aus dem hierdurch realisierten Klemmsitz bzw. der seitlichen Klemmverbindung zu entfernen. Die Tasche steht im Allgemeinen senkrecht auf dem einen Hebel bzw. dem Taschenhebel auf. Außerdem ist die Auslegung in der Regel so getroffen, dass sich die Tasche von dem Taschenhebel ausgehend bis in die Gehäuseöffnung erstreckt. Dadurch lässt sich die lösbare Steckverbindung im Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung problemlos realisieren. Außerdem sorgt die Tasche - zumindest zum Teil - dafür, dass die Gehäuseöffnung ganz oder teilweise eine Abdeckung erfährt.The pocket of the pocket lever is usually equipped with spring-loaded side cheeks for receiving the pin of the pin lever. In this way, the pin is releasably held in the pocket between the two spring-loaded side cheeks. It is easily possible to insert the pin between the spring-loaded side cheeks of the bag and, if necessary, to remove it from the thus realized clamping seat or the lateral clamping connection. The bag is generally perpendicular to the one lever or the pocket lever. In addition, the interpretation is usually made so that the bag extends from the pocket lever, starting in the housing opening. This allows the detachable connector in the Realize the area of the housing opening easily. In addition, the bag ensures - at least in part - that the housing opening wholly or partially undergoes a cover.
Meistens ist die Tasche mit einem sich von der Gehäuseöffnung aufgehend bis ins Gehäuseinnere erstreckenden Kanal zur Aufnahme des Zapfens ausgerüstet. Als Folge hiervon wird der Hebel mit dem Zapfen in die Gehäuseöffnung eingeführt bzw. eingesteckt und kann im Anschluss daran der Zapfen dem Verlauf der Tasche folgend in diese bzw. in den Kanal eingesteckt werden.Most of the bag is equipped with a rising from the housing opening to the housing interior extending channel for receiving the pin. As a result, the lever with the pin is inserted or inserted into the housing opening and can subsequently be inserted into the channel or the channel following the pin following the course of the pocket.
Weil der Zapfen auf dem Zapfenhebel senkrecht aufsteht, verfügt die Tasche in der Regel über einen seitlichen Öffnungsschlitz für den Zapfen. Außerdem verläuft der fragliche Kanal der Tasche zur Aufnahme des Zapfens im allgemeinen senkrecht im Vergleich zur Gehäuseöffnung. In der gleichen senkrechten Richtung findet dann auch die Vereinigung des Zapfenhebels mit dem Taschenhebel statt, und zwar einfach dadurch, dass der Zapfen senkrecht in die Tasche eingesteckt wird und hierbei die Seitenwangen auffedern und den Zapfen nach seinem Einführen umschließen. Da die beiden Seitenwangen durch den dazwischen befindlichen Öffnungsschlitz voneinander beabstandet sind, kann der Zapfen bei der Vereinigung beider Hebel entlang des Öffnungsschlitzes gleiten.Because the pin stands upright on the pin lever, the bag usually has a side opening slot for the pin. In addition, the channel in question of the pocket for receiving the pin is generally perpendicular to the housing opening. In the same vertical direction then takes place the union of the pin lever with the pocket lever, and simply by the fact that the pin is inserted vertically into the pocket and thereby rebound the side cheeks and enclose the pin after its insertion. Since the two side cheeks are spaced apart by the opening slot therebetween, the pin can slide along the opening slot in unifying both levers.
Damit nach diesem Verbindungsvorgang der beiden Hebel unter Realisierung der lösbaren Steckverbindung der Zapfenhebel nicht unbeabsichtigt aus der Tasche (wieder) entfernt wird, wird der Zapfenhebel nach seiner Vereinigung mit dem Taschenhebel unter Definition einer Drehachse mit dem Gehäuse drehbar verbunden. Zu diesem Zweck verfügt der Zapfenhebel über eine Öffnung an einem Ende, die mit einer zugehörigen Öffnung im Gehäuse zur Deckung gebracht wird. Durch die beiden sich deckenden Öffnungen wird dann ein Splint oder Dorn unter Definition der fraglichen Drehachse gesteckt.Thus, after this connection operation of the two lever under realization of the releasable connector of the pin lever is not inadvertently removed from the pocket (again), the pin lever is rotatably connected after its union with the pocket lever defining a rotation axis with the housing. For this purpose, the pin lever has an opening at one end, which with an associated opening in the housing for Cover is brought. Through the two openings covering a split pin or mandrel is then defined by defining the axis of rotation in question.
Der Zapfenhebel ist in der Regel als Winkelhebel ausgelegt. Tatsächlich hat es sich bewährt, wenn der Zapfenhebel eine L-Form aufweist. So oder so ist der Winkelhebel mit einem Dreharm und einem Anschlussarm ausgelegt. Der Dreharm trägt endseitig den Splint oder Dorn bzw. weist endseitig die Drehachse zur Betätigung des Zapfenhebels auf. Dagegen ist der Anschlussarm an seinem Ende mit einer Anschlussöse oder einer vergleichbaren Anschlusseinrichtung ausgerüstet, um hieran beispielsweise ein Gestänge oder eine andere Betätigungseinrichtung zur Verbindung mit unter anderem einem Innenverriegelungsknopf oder einer anderen Innenverriegelungseinrichtung herstellen zu können.The pin lever is usually designed as an angle lever. In fact, it has proven useful if the pin lever has an L-shape. Either way, the angle lever is designed with a rotating arm and a connecting arm. The rotary arm carries the end of the cotter pin or mandrel or end has the axis of rotation for actuating the pin lever. In contrast, the connecting arm is equipped at its end with a connection eye or a similar connection device, to this end, for example, to produce a linkage or other actuator for connection to, inter alia, an internal locking button or other internal locking device.
Im Allgemeinen trägt der Dreharm den Zapfen, so dass Dreharm und Zapfen überwiegend im Innern des Gehäuses angeordnet sind. Das heißt, der Dreharm taucht im Wesentlichen senkrecht durch die Gehäuseöffnung in das Gehäuse ein und ist mit Hilfe des Dorns oder des Splintes an seiner Drehachse drehbar an das Gehäuse angeschlossen. Demgegenüber findet sich der Zapfen des Zapfenhebels im Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung, wo er lösbar in die Tasche des Taschenhebels eingreift. Dabei wird man im Allgemeinen die Auslegung so treffen, dass die Gehäuseöffnung und eine Taschenöffnung größenmäßig aneinander angepasst sind. Dadurch wird etwaiger verbleibender Freiraum der Gehäuseöffnung neben der Taschenöffnung auf ein Minimum reduziert, so dass Wasser, Schmutz oder dergleichen kaum eine Eintrittsöffnung in das Gehäuse finden.In general, the rotary arm carries the pin, so that rotary arm and pin are predominantly arranged in the interior of the housing. That is, the rotary arm immersed substantially perpendicularly through the housing opening in the housing and is rotatably connected to the housing by means of the mandrel or the splint on its axis of rotation. In contrast, there is the pin of the pin lever in the region of the housing opening, where it is releasably engaged in the pocket of the pocket lever. In general, the design will be such that the housing opening and a pocket opening are adapted to each other in terms of size. As a result, any remaining free space of the housing opening is reduced to a minimum next to the pocket opening, so that water, dirt or the like hardly find an inlet opening in the housing.
Wie bereits erläutert, ist der Zapfenhebel teilweise im Gehäuseinnern mit seinem Dreharm angeordnet. Demgegenüber findet sich der Taschenhebel vollständig im Gehäuseinnern. Auf diese Weise tritt lediglich der Anschlussarm des Zapfenhebels nach außen aus und kragt gleichsam gegenüber der Gehäuseöffnung vor, um die gewünschte Anbindung des Zapfenhebels mit beispielsweise dem Innenverriegelungsknopf zur Verfügung zu stellen. In diesem Fall sind der Zapfenhebel und der Taschenhebel jeweils vorteilhaft als Verriegelungshebel ausgelegt und handelt es sich bei dem Hebelsystem um ein Verriegelungshebelsystem. Dabei mag man im Detail die Auslegung so wählen, dass der Zapfenhebel als Innenverriegelungshebel ausgebildet ist, während der Taschenhebel einen Verriegelungshaupthebel bzw. einen Zentralverriegelungshebel darstellt.As already explained, the pin lever is partially disposed inside the housing with its rotary arm. In contrast, the pocket lever is completely inside the case. In this way, only the connection arm occurs the pin lever to the outside and, as it were, protrudes with respect to the housing opening in order to provide the desired connection of the pin lever with, for example, the inner locking button. In this case, the pin lever and the pocket lever are each advantageously designed as a locking lever and the lever system is a locking lever system. It may be in detail the interpretation to choose so that the pin lever is designed as an internal locking lever, while the pocket lever is a locking main lever or a central locking lever.
Das ist selbstverständlich nur beispielhaft und nicht einschränkend zu verstehen, weil die beschriebene lösbare Steckverbindung im Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung selbstverständlich auch bei einem Betätigungshebelsystem mit entsprechend ausgelegten Betätigungshebeln zum Einsatz kommen kann. Im Regelfall werden jedoch ein oder mehrere Verriegelungshebel ganz oder teilweise aus dem zugehörigen Gehäuse des Kraftfahrzeugtürverschlusses geführt, so dass es sich erfindungsgemäß und üblicherweise um Verriegelungshebel und ein Verriegelungshebelsystem handelt.Of course, this is only to be understood by way of example and not by way of limitation, because the described releasable plug connection in the region of the housing opening can of course also be used in an actuating lever system with correspondingly designed actuating levers. As a rule, however, one or more locking levers are wholly or partly guided out of the associated housing of the motor vehicle door lock, so that according to the invention it is usually a locking lever and a locking lever system.
Schlussendlich mag die Tasche bzw. können die auffedernden Seitenwangen der Tasche mit Rastausformungen und Rasteinformungen ausgerüstet werden. Hier ist es sogar denkbar, mehrere solcher Rastausformungen und Rasteinformungen zu realisieren, um verschiedene Positionen des Zapfens im Vergleich zur Tasche bzw. dem sich ins Gehäuseinneren erstreckenden Kanal zu definieren. Mit Hilfe dieser in Richtung des Kanals angeordneten Rastausformungen und Rastausformungen ist es sogar denkbar, den Zapfen in verschiedenen "Höhenpositionen" im Vergleich zum Kanal in diesem lösbar zu fixieren. Dadurch lassen sich unterschiedliche Einbausituationen der fraglichen Hebel beherrschen, beispielsweise bei verschiedenen Kraftfahrzeugtürschlössern, unterschiedlichen Gehäusen etc..Finally, the bag or the rebounding sidewalls of the bag may be equipped with latching formations and latching notches. Here, it is even conceivable to realize a plurality of such latching formations and latching notches in order to define different positions of the journal compared to the pocket or the channel extending inside the housing. With the help of this arranged in the direction of the channel latching formations and Rastausformungen it is even conceivable to fix the pin in different "height positions" compared to the channel in this releasably. As a result, different installation situations of the lever in question can be mastered, for example in the case of different motor vehicle door locks, different housings etc.
Im Ergebnis wird ein Kraftfahrzeugtürverschluss zur Verfügung gestellt, welcher durch eine einfache und funktionsgerechte Montage einzelner Hebel überzeugt. Insbesondere geht es darum, das Wassermanagement zu verbessern. Das gelingt dergestalt, dass das Kraftfahrzeugtürschloss inklusive Gehäuse fertig gestellt und beispielsweise abgedichtet werden kann. Erst im Anschluss hieran besteht erfindungsgemäß die Möglichkeit, beispielsweise den Innenverriegelungshebel mit einem im Innern vorhandenen Verriegelungshaupthebel wechselwirkend zu verbinden. Das erleichtert die Montage enorm und verringert die Kosten. Das heißt, die Montage des Innenverriegelungshebels erfolgt im Beispielfall nach der Abdeckung des zugehörigen Kraftfahrzeugtürschlosses und der Montage des Gehäuses.As a result, a motor vehicle door lock is provided, which convinces by a simple and functional installation of individual levers. In particular, it is about improving water management. This is achieved in such a way that the motor vehicle door lock including housing can be completed and, for example, sealed. Only after this there is the possibility according to the invention, for example, to interactively connect the inner locking lever with an inner locking lever present in the interior. This makes assembly much easier and reduces costs. That is, the installation of the inside locking lever takes place in the example case after the cover of the associated motor vehicle door lock and the assembly of the housing.
Das alles gelingt unter Realisierung einer möglichst kleinen Gehäuseöffnung. Denn die Gehäuseöffnung muss lediglich die Tasche des Taschenhebels aufnehmen, in welche der Zapfen des Zapfenhebels mehr oder minder senkrecht und damit platzsparend eingesteckt wird. Zugleich hat die Gehäuseöffnung sicherzustellen, dass der Zapfenhebel seine für die Betätigung des Taschenhebels erforderlichen Schwenkbewegungen um die an seinem Dreharm realisierte Drehachse vollführen kann. Da in diesem Zusammenhang und erfindungsgemäß der Zapfen und die Tasche die beschriebene lösbare Steckverbindung im Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung eingehen, wohingegen sich die Drehachse endseitig des Dreharms findet, wird insgesamt ein größtmöglicher Hebelarm zur Verfügung gestellt. Dieser Hebelarm erstreckt sich praktisch über die gesamte Ausdehnung des Gehäuses vom Boden bzw. einem Schlosskasten bis zum Deckel bzw. Gehäusedeckel. Dadurch kann mit relativ kleinen Stellwegen des Innenverriegelungshebels gearbeitet werden und lässt sich dennoch der mit Hilfe des Innenverriegelungshebels betätigte Verriegelungshaupthebel bzw. Zentralverriegelungshebel einwandfrei in seiner Position verändern.All this is achieved by realizing the smallest possible housing opening. Because the housing opening only has to accommodate the pocket of the pocket lever, in which the pin of the pin lever is inserted more or less vertically and thus save space. At the same time, the housing opening has to ensure that the pin lever can perform its pivotal movements required for actuating the pocket lever about the axis of rotation realized on its pivot arm. Since, in this context and according to the invention, the pin and the pocket enter into the described releasable plug connection in the region of the housing opening, whereas the axis of rotation is located on the end side of the rotary arm, the greatest possible lever arm is made available overall. This lever arm extends virtually over the entire extent of the housing from the bottom or a lock case to the cover or housing cover. As a result, it is possible to work with relatively small travel ranges of the inner locking lever, and nevertheless the locking main lever or central locking lever actuated with the aid of the inner locking lever can be correctly changed in its position.
Dadurch wird unter dem Strich eine einfache Montage bei geringstmöglichem Querschnitt der Gehäuseöffnung zur Verfügung gestellt, so dass etwaige Funktionsstörungen durch eindringendes Wasser und/oder Schmutz demzufolge auch auf ein Minimum reduziert sind. Hierin sind die wesentlichen Vorteile zu sehen.As a result, a simple assembly at the lowest possible cross-section of the housing opening is provided on the bottom line, so that any malfunction due to ingress of water and / or dirt are consequently reduced to a minimum. Here are the main benefits.
Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand einer lediglich ein Ausführungsbeispiel darstellenden Zeichnung näher erläutert; es zeigen:

In den Figuren ist ein Kraftfahrzeugtürverschluss dargestellt, der zunächst einmal über ein Gehäuse 1 mit Trennwand 2 verfügt. In dem Gehäuse 1 werden ein in der Rückansicht nach
Die Antriebseinheit 10, 11, 12 setzt sich aus einem Motor bzw. Elektromotor 10, einer Antriebsschnecke 11 und einem Schneckenrad 12 zusammen, welches auf den Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 arbeitet und diesen in wenigstens die Positionen "entriegelt" und "verriegelt" motorisch überführt. Vergleichbar sind auch der Innenverriegelungshebel 8 und der Außenverriegelungshebel 9 in der Lage, den Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 in die fraglichen Positionen "entriegelt" bzw. "verriegelt" zu überführen.The

Dabei mündet die in der
In vergleichbarer Weise kann der Verriegelungshebel 5 mit Hilfe des Außenverriegelungshebels 9 verschwenkt werden. Dazu mag der Außenverriegelungshebel 9 eine Bewegung in der in
Auf der Drehachse 13 ist neben dem Verriegelungshebel 5 bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 nicht nur der Außenverriegelungshebel 9 gelagert, sondern auch eine Drehfalle 3 des Gesperres 3, 4. Tatsächlich setzt sich das Gesperre 3, 4 aus einerseits der Drehfalle 3 und andererseits der mit der Drehfalle 3 wechselwirkenden und in die geschlossene Drehfalle 3 einfallenden Sperrklinke 4 üblicher Bauart zusammen. Man erkennt, dass das Gesperre 3, 4 einerseits und der Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 sowie der Kupplungshebel 6 und ein Auslösehebel 7 andererseits in dem Gehäuse 1 aufgenommen werden, allerdings auf gegenüberliegenden Seiten mit Bezug zu der dazwischen angeordneten Trennwand 2.In addition to the locking lever 5 or locking main lever 5, not only the
Durch diese Anordnung können der Verriegelungshebel 5 sowie der Kupplungshebel 6 und der Betätigungshebel 7 einerseits in einer Ebene unterhalb der Trennwand 2 mit Bezug zur
Die Besonderheit des dargestellten Türschlosses bzw. des hiermit realisierten Kraftfahrzeugtürverschlusses, zu dem noch ein nicht ausdrücklich dargestellter und mit dem Gesperre 3, 4 wechselwirkender Schließbolzen gehört, liegt nun in Folgendem. Wie man anhand der
Tatsächlich sind die beiden vorerwähnten Hebel 5, 8 durch eine lösbare Steckverbindung 15, 16 im Bereich einer Gehäuseöffnung 17 miteinander drehgelenkig gekoppelt. Das wird im Detail so bewerkstelligt, dass der Innenverriegelungshebel 8 mit dem Zapfen 15 ausgerüstet ist, welcher senkrecht von dem Innenverriegelungshebel 8 absteht. Auf diese Weise ist der Innenverriegelungshebel 8 als Zapfenhebel 8 ausgelegt. Der Zapfen 15 greift in die Zapfenaufnahme 16 bzw. eine hierdurch gebildete Tasche 16 am anderen Hebel 5 ein und zwar seitlich. Dadurch ist der Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 insgesamt als Taschenhebel 5 ausgelegt. Außerdem liegt eine seitliche Klemmverbindung zwischen einerseits dem Zapfen 15 und andererseits der seitlich geöffneten Tasche 16 vor.In fact, the two
Im Detail verfügt die Tasche bzw. Zapfenaufnahme 16 über zwei seitliche Seitenwangen 16b und eine Basis 16a, an welche die beiden Seitenwangen 16b angeschlossen sind. Die beiden Seitenwangen 16b sind auffedernd ausgelegt und dienen zur Aufnahme des Zapfens 15. Da die beiden Seitenwangen 16b im Wesentlichen senkrecht auf der Basis 16a der Tasche 16 aufstehen, wird im Querschnitt eine im Wesentlichen U-förmige Gestalt der Tasche 16 realisiert. Dadurch verfügt die Tasche 16 auf ihrer der Basis 16a gegenüberliegenden Seite über einen seitlichen Öffnungsschlitz 18. Folglich sind die beiden Seitenwangen 16b unter Berücksichtigung des zwischengeschalteten Öffnungsschlitzes 18 voneinander beabstandet.In detail, the pocket or
Dieser seitliche Öffnungsschlitz 18 stellt sicher, dass der Zapfen 15 nur zum Teil seitlich in die Tasche 16 eintaucht und auch eintauchen kann und im Übrigen an den Zapfenhebel bzw. Innenverriegelungshebel 8 angeschlossen ist. Da die Tasche 16 senkrecht auf dem Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel respektive dem Taschenhebel 5 aufsteht, findet eine Vereinigung zwischen dem Innenverriegelungshebel 8 und dem Verriegelungshebel 5 dadurch statt, dass der Innenverriegelungshebel bzw. Zapfenhebel 8 mit seinem Zapfen 15 im Wesentlichen senkrecht im Vergleich zur Zeichenebene nach
Dadurch, dass sich die Tasche 16 bis in die Gehäuseöffnung 17 oder in den Bereich der Gehäuseöffnung 17 erstreckt, wird die Gehäuseöffnung 17 durch die Tasche 16 bzw. deren Taschenöffnung 21 zumindest teilweise ausgefüllt. Da die Taschenöffnung 21 ihrerseits von dem Zapfen 15 in Verbindung mit den Rastausformungen 19 nahezu vollständig ausgefüllt wird, erfährt die Gehäuseöffnung 17 einen signifikanten Verschluss durch die bis in die Gehäuseöffnung 17 vorkragende Tasche 16 mit ihrer Taschenöffnung 21.Due to the fact that the
In jedem Fall erstreckt sich die Tasche 16 ausgehend von der Gehäuseöffnung 17 ins Gehäuseinnere. Dadurch wird zwischen den beiden Seitenwangen 16b in Verbindung mit der Basis 16a der Tasche 16 insgesamt ein Kanal zur Aufnahme des Zapfens 15 geformt, welcher sich gleichfalls ausgehend von der Gehäuseöffnung 17 senkrecht in Richtung des Gehäuseinneren erstreckt, und zwar in Richtung auf den Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshauptriegel 5 hin.In any case, the
Bei der vergleichenden Betrachtung der
Erst nach Anbringung der Abdeckung 22 wird der Innenverriegelungshebel 8 mit dem Verriegelungshebel 5 gelenkig verbunden, in dem die an dieser Stelle realisierte lösbare Steckverbindung 15, 16 hergestellt wird. Dazu wird der Zapfenhebel bzw. Innenverriegelungshebel 8 mit dem Taschenhebel respektive Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 durch eine im Vergleich zur Gehäuseöffnung 17 im Wesentlichen senkrechte Steckbewegung (i. w. senkrecht zur Zeichenebene nach
Da sich die Drehachse 14 endseitig eines Dreharmes 8a des Zapfenhebels 8 am Grund des Gehäuses 1 befindet, erstreckt sich ein von der Drehachse 14 bis zum Zapfen 15 reichender Hebelarm nahezu über die gesamte Stärke S des Gehäuses 1. Dadurch lassen sich mit Hilfe des Innenverriegelungshebels 8 relativ große Drehmomente auf den Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 unter Zwischenschaltung der lösbaren Steckverbindung 15, 16 ausüben, so dass nur geringe Schwenkbewegungen des Innenverriegelungshebel 8 um die fragliche Drehachse 14 erforderlich sind, um den Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 zu verschwenken. Als Folge hiervon lässt sich die Gehäuseöffnung 17 relativ klein halten, um die fraglichen Schwenkbewegungen des Innenverriegelungshebels 8 zuzulassen.Since the axis of
Neben dem bereits angesprochenen Dreharm 8a mit der endseitig definierten Drehachse 14 verfügt der Zapfenhebel 8 zusätzlich noch über einen Anschlussarm 8b, welcher eine Verbindung über beispielsweise ein Gestänge mit einem Innenverriegelungsknopf eingeht. Der Dreharm 8a des Zapfenhebels 8 trägt den Zapfen 15.In addition to the already mentioned rotary arm 8a with the end defined axis of
Im Rahmen des Ausführungsbeispiels ist der Zapfenhebel bzw. Innenverriegelungshebel 8 als Winkelhebel, vorzugsweise L-förmiger Winkelhebel ausgelegt. Dagegen handelt es sich bei dem Verriegelungshebel bzw. Verriegelungshaupthebel 5 um einen Flächenhebel mit überwiegend flächiger Ausdehnung parallel zur Trennwand 2. Das ist selbstverständlich nur beispielhaft und nicht einschränkend zu verstehen.In the context of the embodiment, the pin lever or
