Definitions

  • the invention includes a motor vehicle door lock with a locking mechanism : furthermore with at least one actuating lever for triggering the locking mechanism. and with a pivotable about an axis locking lever), which sets the locking at least when occurring deceleration forces of predetermined greetings and direction, for example in an accident ("crash"), ineffective.
  • the locking mechanism typically consists of a catch and a pawl.
  • deceleration forces of predetermined magnitude and direction occurring in connection with an accident, there is in principle the risk that the ratchet will be opened unintentionally because the deceleration forces act on the actuating lever to trigger the ratchet.
  • unintentional openings in particular in the case of an arrow, are prevented by the locking lever, which sets the locking mechanism inoperative at the delay forces of a predetermined size and direction in question.
  • the aforementioned deceleration forces or associated vehicle accelerations mostly act in the transverse (that is to say in the Y) direction of the motor vehicle and occur mainly in the event of a side impact.
  • the locking lever is equipped with a stop recess. Oie stop recess engages in blockade case acted upon pawl or beaufschlagtem actuating lever in an opening of a counter-locking surface a form-fitting. In this way, the desired blockage of the release lever or locking mechanism is given in all conceivable circumstances and in particular is maintained during the entire time within which the mentioned deceleration forces occur. That has proven itself.
  • the procedure is such that the blocking lever is assigned a blocking means which fixes the blocking lever in its deflected position.
  • the blocking agent is a spring.
  • the locking lever In the deflected position, the locking lever only goes over when the motor vehicle door lock is subjected to acceleration forces or deceleration forces of a predetermined size and direction, for example those which are observed in the event of an accident. Acceleration or deceleration forces, which exceed several times the acceleration due to gravity, typically correspond to this. Typically, the forces in question are more than 5 g.
  • the locking lever is mechanically deflected in the teaching of WO 2012/013 82 A2 and ensures that the at least one actuating lever or the entire operating lever mechanism is mechanically ineffective or is set ineffective. In this way, a simple and functionally correct structure are realized and malfunctions can practically be ruled out even after years or decades of use. Because the locking lever performs in normal operation upon actuation of the operating lever mechanism or the actuating lever a relative movement, so that overall the mobility of the locking lever is ensured and corrosion, caking, etc. need not be feared.
  • the invention proposes, in a generic motor vehicle door lock, that the locking lever has a connected spring which, in normal operation, is acted upon by the actuating lever for deflecting the blocking lever which engages over the blocking lever and compressed in the event of a crash.
  • the actuating lever engages over the locking lever.
  • the actuating lever is formed in the core longer than a distance between the two axes of the lever in question. That is, not only the locking lever is designed to be pivotable about its axis, but also the actuating lever must be moved about a corresponding axis and is designed in a similar manner as a pivot lever. If one now considers the two axes on the one hand the actuating lever and on the other hand the actuating lever, then the Lock lifting! formed longer than this distance, so that it engages over the locking lever and can also overlap.
  • the operating lever is able to engage with a large lever arm on the spring connected to the locking lever.
  • high speeds are observed at the point of application, that is to say at the point in which the actuating lever acts on the spring on the blocking lever.
  • high speeds of the point of application now make it possible to equip the locking lever with a relatively low mass, without the function would be impaired in any way. Because in this context it depends solely and solely on it. that the locking lever in the event of a crash mainly retains its position (due to its inertial mass) and the spring is compressed on the locking lever, so that then the actuating lever! drive against a stop on the locking lever and thereby can be blocked.
  • the large lever arm starting from the axis of the actuating lever to the point of application of the actuating lever on the spring.
  • This large lever arm is expressed in essence in the invention measure. that the actuating lever engages over the blocking lever or the actuating lever! a greater length than the distance between the axles on the one hand the actuating lever! and on the other hand has the Sperrhebei.
  • the main benefits are the main benefits.
  • the actuating lever is equipped with a boom.
  • the design is made so that the boom, the spring on the locking lever! acted upon in the above the axis of rotation of the locking lever arranged attack point. That is, the operating lever engages with its arm the locking lever, so that the desired lever length is observed at the end of the boom or in the point of attack, which exceeds the length of the distance between the two axes or axes of rotation on the one hand the operating lever and on the other hand the locking lever.
  • the operating lever is equipped with a stop lug, which interacts with the stop on the locking lever in the event of a crash.
  • the stop on the locking lever is usually designed as an angled stop contour. Even with the stop lug on the actuating lever may be an angling.
  • the spring is generally designed as a spiral spring.
  • the design is such that one end of the coil spring is fixed to the locking lever, whereas the other (free) end of the coil spring interacts with the actuating lever.
  • This other end of the coil spring generally defines, together with the boom of the Betlochauershebeis the point. This point is located above the axis of the locking lever, at least at the beginning of the movement.
  • the locking lever can be - as already explained - pivot about an axis or axis of rotation.
  • the locking lever typically has a horizontal orientation.
  • the locking lever can be largely horizontally pivoted about the said axis and in this context is designed as a movable horizontal pivoting lever.
  • the operating lever has a predominantly vertical orientation.
  • the operating lever is designed as a vertical pivotable about its axis in the vertical direction movable pivot lever.
  • a transmission lever can still be provided, which is arranged between the actuating lever and the spring.
  • the transmission lever may in turn be mounted on the Sperrhebet. In this case you will find the Point of attack not between the actuating lever or its arm and the spring on the locking lever, but rather between the actuating lever respectively the boom and the transmission lever.
  • the crash case in this variant causes the transmission lever is deflected and the spring is compressed. Due to the inertia of the locking lever maintains its position in this case. so that it provides as desired for the blockage of the operating lever and can also provide.
  • a motor vehicle Trverschiuss is provided, which is equipped with a particularly reliable mass lock long service life. Due to the particular leverage effect and the fact that the actuating lever engages over the locking lever, a particularly massive design of the locking lever can be dispensed with. As a result, a weight-optimized design is observed, which also manages with a minimum of components. As a result, not only weight but also cost advantages are realized.
  • FIGS. 3A-3C show a further variant of the motor vehicle door lock according to the invention in various functional positions
  • a motor vehicle door lock is shown, which is initially equipped with a not explicitly shown locking mechanism of catch and pawl.
  • an actuating lever 1 is realized, which serves to trigger the locking mechanism.
  • the operating lever 1 is not limited to an external operating lever. In principle, however, the actuating lever 1 can also be designed as an internal operating lever or both functions (external actuation and internal actuation) comprising summary actuation lever.
  • the actuating lever 1 is designed as a pivot lever and can be pivoted about an associated axis 2 in normal operation in a clockwise direction, as an arrow in Fig. 1C indicates.
  • Such pivoting movements of the actuating lever 1 in normal operation are initiated, for example, by means of an outer door handle 3 indicated in FIG. 1C.
  • the locking mechanism is opened by the actuating lever in question 1 indirectly or directly lifts the pawl of its engagement with the associated rotary latch as the two main components of the locking mechanism.
  • the arrestssteliung corresponds to FIG. 1C.
  • the motor vehicle door lock according to the invention furthermore has a locking lever 4, which can be pivoted about an axis 5.
  • the actuating lever 1 which is pivoted about its axis 2 when the outer door handle 3 is acted upon, causes it to take along the locking lever 4 in this process. This ensures an intermediate spring 6.
  • the swiveling lever 4 pivotable about its axis 5 ensures that the locking mechanism is rendered ineffective, at least when the deceleration forces F of predetermined magnitude and direction occur, for example in the case of an accident fCrashfai).
  • the locking lever 4 in question because of its inertia, retains or substantially retains its rest position as shown in FIG. 1A, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B. Because there is the crash case reproduced.

  • the already mentioned spring 6 is compressed.
  • the locking lever 4 is equipped with the spring 6 in question, which is connected to the locking lever 4.
  • the spring 6 is acted upon by the actuating lever 1 for the deflection of the locking lever 4, as represent the normal operation reproducing Figs. 1A to 1C in this sequence. For this corresponds to the already described rotary movement of the actuating lever 1 in a clockwise direction, at the end of the locking mechanism is triggered.
  • the locking lever 1 has a stop or a stop lug 7, which is designed as a fold on the otherwise predominantly flat etall (punch) part designed actuating lever 1.
  • actuating lever 1 engages over the locking lever 4 in the context of the invention. This is of particular importance, because this large lever forces on the spring 6 attack and can be worked with low masses, in particular the Sperrhebeis 4 and also the Betchanistshebeis 1.
