Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an opening / closing mechanism of car door.
  • This mechanism is of the type comprising a pivotally mounted handle on a base around an axis substantially parallel to the plane of the door and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the handle.
  • a handle usually includes two branches protruding from its ends, including a pivoting branch pivotally connected to the base and an actuating branch acting on a set of transmission which realizes the unlocking of the door.
  • the mechanism in particular, it is known to equip the mechanism with an organ of locking the handle and a return spring now normally this member in the non-locking position of the handle, the organ of lock comprising a hook and a feeder connected to the hook and being pivotally mounted on the base.
  • the hook comes, in the position of locking, engage in a cavity in the branch actuation that includes the handle.
  • This mechanism has the drawback of presenting a sensitivity the acceleration caused by an accident, these accelerations being complex and including accelerations of different directions, exercising simultaneously or successively.
  • the base of this mechanism is specific to each type of vehicle, and a given base design leads to specificities of design and / or positioning of the locking member, to which the cavity of the actuating branch must be adapted.
  • the structure of known mechanism therefore does not allow to standardize the handle, which is a notable constraint, such standardization being sought for "style elements" of such a mechanism, especially for the handle.
  • the hook is located in a very congested area of the base, at the level of which are the lock, the set of transmission, the window guide and the window of the door.
  • the establishment of the locking member in this area is a design constraint important.
  • the present invention aims to remedy all of these disadvantages.
  • Its main purpose is therefore to provide a handle mechanism aforementioned type having improved sensitivity to accelerations caused by an accident, so as to give the mechanism reliability increased operation.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a mechanism to standardize the "stylistic elements" of such a mechanism, in particular the handle.
  • Yet another object of the invention is to provide a mechanism for simplified design in the said area where the latch, the transmission assembly, the window guide and the door window.
  • the mechanism concerned comprises, in a manner known per se, a locking member of the handle in case of accelerations caused by a accident and an elastic return member now normally this organ in the non-locking position of the handle, the locking member comprising a hook and a flyweight connected to the hook.
  • the locking member may comprise a housing receiving the organ elastic, allowing easy assembly of the mechanism.
  • the locking member may comprise a cavity for receiving the organ elastic, forming two coaxial lugs, and the elastic member may present two clean windings to come into engagement on these pins, a intermediate branch connecting these two windings, and at least one other branch extending from at least one winding, said branch intermediate bearing against the locking member or the handle while the said other branch bears against, respectively, the handle or the locking member.
  • FIG. 1 represents a door opening / closing mechanism 1 of a motor vehicle, comprising a base 2, a set of transmission 3, a handle 4, a locking member 5 and a spring 6.
  • the base 2 is intended to be fixed to the door, against the plate of it. It has a central portion 10, a rear portion 11 and a front part 12.
  • the central portion 10 has a recessed concave shape, allowing the passing the user's fingers around the handle 4, and delimits a receiving housing of the transmission assembly 3.
  • This set of transmission 3 comprises a pivoting body 15 provided with a radial wing 16, a pin spring 17, adapted to maintain normally this pivoting body 15 in a position corresponding to the locking of the door, and a piece 18 connected to the body 15 pivotally, comprising a counterweight 19 and a protruding limb 14, this branch 14 being connected to an actuating cable (not shown) which controls the movement of the latch opening / closing the door.
  • the spring 17 comprises a rectilinear branch 17a at one end, bearing against the base 2, and another rectilinear branch to its other end, bearing against the body 15.
  • the radial wing 16 is facing a branch actuator 30 that the handle 4 has and is actuated by this actuating branch 30 when the handle 4 is rotated.
  • the rear portion 11 defines a housing 20 for receiving a branch of pivoting 31 that includes the handle 4 and includes a crossbar rounded 21 (see Figures 2 and 3) around which this branch pivots 31.
  • the front portion 12 defines a housing 22 for receiving said actuating branch 30. It also comprises two openings of passage of hooks that includes the locking member, delimiting ledges 23 behind which these hooks are able to lock, as well as shown in Figure 3.
  • the handle 4 comprises a body 25 on which is fixed a hood hubcap 26, this fixing being carried out by means of projections of snap-fitting 27 arranged on the body 25 and complementary cavities fitted on the hood 26.
  • the body 25 forms a cavity at the connection zone of the actuating branch 30 to him, this cavity being adapted to receive the locking member 5 and the spring 6.
  • the body 25 form two coaxial receiving bearings of two pivots 43 that includes the locking member 5, and comprises two lateral windows 34 of pivotally receiving the two hooks 40 that includes the latter.
  • the cover 26 has two internal projections 28 being, after mounting the cover 26 on the body 25, facing said bearings and ensuring the retention of pivots 43 in these bearings.
  • the actuating branch 30 comprises a curved free end 35, intended to cooperate with the radial flange 16 of the pivoting body 15, and a central rib 36, arranged between the windows 34 and delimiting two side housings 37.
  • the rib 36 is, after assembly, slidably received in a notch that includes the opening of housing 22, and takes place in space defined by the hooks 40 between them, each hook 40 taking place in one of the dwellings 37 after his engagement through the windows 34.
  • the pivoting branch 31 is integral with the body 25. It presents a curved shape, allowing its engagement in housing 20 and includes a notch 38 at its free end, allowing its engagement pivotally on the rounded cross member 21 in this housing 20.
  • the locking member 5 has two comprises two hooks 40, a branch 41 forming a counterweight extending in one direction substantially perpendicular to that in which the hooks 40 extend, and an intermediate zone for connecting the hooks 40 to the branch 41.
  • Each hook 40 is arranged at a distance from the other hook, so that the two hooks 40 delimit a space between them, and is dimensioned to be able to be engaged through a window 34, with the possibility of pivoting of the member 5.
  • Each hook 40 has a curved portion to its free end, allowing its support against the edges of lock 23.
  • the branch 41 extends, after mounting, beyond the zone of connecting the actuating branch 30 to the body 25, to this point 25. It may receive one or more weighting elements 42, in particular, in the embodiment shown, an axis 42 driven in a hole that includes the branch 41.
  • Said intermediate zone of the member 5 comprises the two pivots 43 above and delimits an upper housing 45 receiving the spring 6.
  • the intermediate zone forms two coaxial receiving lugs two windings 48 that this spring 6 has.
  • This spring 6 is constituted by a wire folded so as to form these two windings 48, an intermediate branch 49 between these two windings 48 and two rectilinear extremal branches 50. After assembly, the intermediate branch 49 bears against the body 25 while the two extremal branches 50 bear against a wall of the organ of lock 5 which delimits the housing 45.
  • the locking member 5 is normally maintained by the spring 6, in the non-locking position of the handle 4 shown on Figure 2.
  • the weight formed by the branch 41 leads to pivoting of the locking member 5 in the position shown on the 3, in which the hooks 40 come to lock behind the ledges 23.
  • the invention provides a mechanism 1 for opening / closing a motor vehicle door in which the locking member 5, in view of its positioning, has a center of gravity located at a reduced distance from the center of gravity of the handle 4, which results in significantly improved detection of complex acceleration under Mechanism 1 in the event of an accident, and therefore a significantly increased reliability of operation of this mechanism.
  • the integration of the locking member 5 in the handle 4 also for advantages to allow a standardization of the whole that forms the handle 4 and the locking member 5, going in the direction of the trend manufacture of such mechanisms, and to the space at said zone of the base 2 comprising the lock, the transmission assembly 3, the window guide and the window of the door, simplifying thus significantly the design of the mechanism.
