Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric lock for a motor vehicle with a locking mechanism according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the locking mechanism comprises a rotatably mounted rotary latch for receiving a locking bolt.
  • the locking mechanism also has a pawl with which the rotary latch can be locked.
  • the parts of the locking mechanism which are made of metal and / or plastic, are usually attached to a lock plate that is basically made of metal so that they can pivot or rotate.
  • the rotary latch of a motor vehicle lock usually has a fork-shaped inlet slot formed by the load arm and catch arm, into which the locking bolt of a vehicle door or flap, for example an engine hood or trunk flap, enters when the door or flap is closed.
  • the locking bolt then rotates the rotary latch from an open position to a closed position.
  • the rotary latch has reached the closed position, it is locked in this position via the pawl.
  • the locking bolt can then no longer leave the inlet slot of the rotary latch.
  • a latching surface also called a blocking surface
  • the pawl is therefore exposed to contact pressure in its locking position. This contact pressure must be overcome in order to move the pawl out of its locking position.
  • an actuating device can comprise a handle which, for example, can be pivoted for actuation. A pivoting movement of the handle is transmitted to a release lever via a linkage, a lever chain or a Bowden cable. If the release lever is pivoted in this way, then the pawl is moved directly or indirectly out of its locking position and the locking mechanism opens.
  • An electric lock could open unplanned due to an electrical fault, which can be associated with a safety risk for the occupants of a motor vehicle.
  • U.S. 5,909,918 A describes a lock that comprises an electric motor that can move a gear for opening the locking mechanism.
  • the gear has a cutout in its peripheral surface that defines a shoulder and interacts with a blocking member.
  • FIG. 1 to 3 a first embodiment of the lock.
  • the shoulder is straight and the blocking member is slidably arranged in a cavity and has a blocking tooth.
  • the blocking member can be moved into a blocking position, so that the blocking tooth is brought into engagement with the milled cutout of the gear wheel and abuts the shoulder.
  • the blocking member blocks a movement of the gear in such a way that the locking mechanism cannot be opened by the electric motor.
  • FIG. 4 and 5 a second embodiment of the lock.
  • the shoulder is concave and the blocking member is rotatably mounted and has an arcuate cutout in its convex circumferential surface which defines a concave release surface.
  • the blocking member can be rotated into a blocking position, so that the convex circumferential surface is brought into engagement with the cutout of the gearwheel and abuts the shoulder.
  • the blocking member blocks a movement of the gear in such a way that the locking mechanism cannot be opened by the electric motor.
  • EP 1 503 012 A1 describes a lock that has a locking mechanism consisting of a rotary latch and pawl for locking the rotary latch in a detent position, an electric motor with which the pawl can be moved out of its detent position, an output-side spur gear that the electric motor is able to move to open the locking mechanism , and a blocking lever.
  • the spur gear has a contour on which the blocking lever rests in its blocking position, thereby blocking movement of the spur gear in such a way that the locking mechanism cannot be opened by the electric motor.
  • the invention makes it possible to prevent a lock from being able to open unplanned.
  • the invention proposes a lock that has a ratchet with rotary latch and pawl for locking the rotary latch in a latching position, an electric drive, a drive element, in particular a wheel and / or a disc, which the drive can move to open the ratchet and has a recess and comprises a movable locking pawl.
  • the pawl In order to be able to open the lock, the pawl can be moved directly or indirectly out of its locking position with the drive. In a blocking position, the blocking pawl can prevent the electric drive from opening the lock.
  • it is necessary to set the electrical drive in motion and to move the blocking pawl from its blocking position to its non-blocking position.
  • the lock comprises a stop for the blocking pawl which is able to limit the movement of the blocking pawl into its blocking position in this way.
  • the drive can be, for example, an electric motor with a worm attached to the motor shaft.
  • the drive element can in particular be a wheel, gearwheel and / or a disk.
  • the blocking pawl In its blocking position, the blocking pawl extends into the recess and blocks or limits such a movement of the drive element by which the locking mechanism can be opened in an electrically driven manner. Reaching into the recess does not require any contact pressure, so that the blocking pawl can be moved out of its blocking position with particularly little effort.
  • the blocking pawl does not have to lock a rotary latch like a pawl and is therefore not exposed to any or at least no high contact pressure in its blocking position, it can be moved out of its blocking position with little effort, for example manually by operating a handle of an actuating device. Therefore, the lock can be opened as planned with little effort.
  • the locking pawl prevents the lock from opening unexpectedly in the event of an electrical fault that sets the electric drive in motion. The locking pawl thus increases security without having to accept a noticeably higher manual effort for the scheduled opening of a lock.
  • the blocking pawl is not exposed to any contact pressure when it is in its blocking position.
  • the blocking pawl can then be moved manually out of its blocking position with particularly little effort.
  • the lock can then be opened particularly easily as planned by actuating the actuating device.
  • the drive element is part of a transmission.
  • the drive element thus fulfills a double function, so that the lock can be manufactured with a small number of parts and consequently with little technical effort and little space required.
  • the stop is designed as a damping element that has a flexible, in particular elastic, surface. Noises are thus avoided when the blocking pawl is moved into its blocking position.
  • the surface of the stop consists for example of a plastic, in particular of an elastomer.
  • the stop is attached to the housing of the electric motor, which is part of the electric drive.
  • the housing of the electric motor can be stored robust enough to be suitable as a fastening for the stop. Production with little installation space is also possible in this way.
  • the microswitch or the sensor sets the electric drive for opening the locking mechanism in motion.
  • the blocking pawl thus fulfills a double function. On the one hand, it can prevent unplanned electrical opening of the locking mechanism. On the other hand, this sets the drive in motion for a scheduled opening of the locking mechanism.
  • the blocking pawl is preferably removed or moved out manually at the engagement area of the disk. This offers the advantage that in the event of a faulty current supply to the electric motor, a mechanical stop, in the form of the blocking pawl, is present, which prevents unintentional opening of the lock.
  • the blocking contour of the blocking pawl is moved closer by means of an internal actuation or an external actuation to open the lock, i.e. inside handle or outside handle on the motor vehicle.
  • the Figures 1 and 2 show a drive for electrically opening a motor vehicle lock.
  • the drive comprises an electric motor 1 with which the lock of the lock can be opened in an electrically driven manner.
  • the blocking position shown prevents the electric drive or electric motor 1 from being able to open the lock electrically.
  • the blocking pawl 2 can be rotated about its axis 3.
  • a worm 5 is attached to the motor shaft 4 of the electric motor 1.
  • a rotatably mounted gear 6 is rotated about its axis 7, in which the screw 5 engages.
  • a disk 8 is attached to the gear 7.
  • a projection 10 of the blocking pawl 2 extends into a recess 9 of the disc 8 and thus limits a counterclockwise rotational movement of the gear 6 and the disc 8, through which the locking mechanism of the lock could be opened electrically. Reaching into the recess 9 takes place without contact pressure, so that the blocking pawl 2 can be moved out of its blocking position with particularly little effort. The blocking pawl 2 is therefore not exposed to any contact pressure, especially in its blocking position.
  • Worm 5 and gear 6 form a gear.
  • the drive element in the form of the gear 6 with the disk 8 thus fulfills a double function.
  • Gear 6 and disk 8 can be designed in one piece or in several parts.
  • the stop 11 can be designed as a damping element which has an elastic surface.
  • the stop 11 is fastened to the housing of the electric motor 1.
  • microswitch 12 operated by the locking pawl 2 as in the Figure 2 is actuated as soon as the blocking pawl 2 is in its non-blocking position.
  • the microswitch 12 is then the electric motor 1 is set in motion to open the locking mechanism.
  • the blocking pawl 2 thus fulfills a double function.
  • the blocking pawl 2 further comprises a projection 13 which rests on the disc 8 when the blocking pawl 2 is as in FIG Figure 2 indicated in the non-blocking position.
  • the projection 13 limits the pivoting movement of the blocking pawl 2 in its non-blocking position.
