Description

The invention relates to a device in the preamble of claim 1 specified type. In this device, a carrier from the inside of the door attached in the area of the outer door panel. The carrier has a bearing pin for a bearing holder, which is located in a bearing element. The device further comprises a handle, the one on its bearing-side handle end Has coupling part. At the opposite end of the handle there is a to Closure of the door leading outlet. This outlet is used when operating of the handle acted on the closure. There is a on the bearing element Counter coupling part arranged, in which the handle from the outside of the door can be engaged. After engaging the handle with the bearing element jointly pivotable.

In the known device of this type (DE 199 22 222 C2), the Carrier attached to the inside of the door and then the bearing element over the Bearing pin hooked into it and screwed from the outside. The will later with the coupling part of the handle to be connected to the coupling part of the bearing element inserted through the opening. The coupling between the handle and the The bearing element is on the outside of the door. Then the plug connection is made Handle and bearing element swiveled and moved longitudinally in the storage area until a a protruding finger acting as an outlet for the closure by a second Breakthrough in the outer door panel reaches the inside of the door. The Longitudinal displacement of the bearing element on the bearing pin is required to protruding finger through the second opening in the outer door panel to be able to thread through. Therefore, the bearing must be taken from the bearing element Be an elongated hole. The elongated hole causes a large game in the area of the bearing. This also leads to an undesired tilting movement of the handle with respect to the Carrier. This leads to friction, which makes operation even more difficult. The engaged coupling and mating coupling part are always in front of the Exterior door panel. This results in a relatively high overall height of the Griffs in front of the outer door panel.

In a known device of another type (DE 30 30 519 C2) is on one end of the handle has a fork-shaped recess when mounting the handle comes into engagement with a bearing pin on the support. These areas of Handle and carrier form an open storage area for the later Pivotal movement of the handle with respect to the bearing. This open camp increases the game in the area of the depository. An unwanted occurs Tilt mobility of the handle. By tolerances when injection molding this Components the game is enlarged. One can by profiling the Inventories and the journal try to counteract the game, but then there is an undesirably large friction when operating the handle.

The invention has for its object a device in the preamble to develop the type mentioned, the handle in the storage area is free of play. this will achieved by the measures specified in claim 1, which has the following special meaning.

In the invention, a rocker is used instead of the short bearing element, which extends the entire length of the handle and at both ends Has counter coupling parts. The handle in turn has two on it Handle coupling parts with which the handle from the outside of the door in the Counter coupling parts of the rocker can be coupled. In the invention the swing arm is the inside of the door "companion" of the handle, which is a form-fitting, the bearing pin has all-round bearing bore. With that the Prefabricate the beam with the swing arm as a structural unit and on the inside of the door Fasten. The swing arm is supported in the carrier without play. Belief means can the completed engagement between the two clutch and Fix counter coupling parts.

The swivel mobility is smooth. Because the one leading to the closure Outlet is located on the swing arm end facing away from the bearing, the result is Connection with the lock regardless of the handle assembly already at the Attachment of the assembly.

The closures of the present type are partly in line with the state of the art Technology matching structure. Therefore, to designate analog Components the same reference numerals are used, but to differentiate the Device according to the invention compared to the prior art in the prior art Technique can also be designated with an apostrophe (').

The known closure 10 'comprises a carrier 11' which is in section on one recognizable outer door panel 14 'is attached from the inside 12' of the door. The handle 20 ', on the other hand, is mounted from the outside of the door 13'. The handle 20 ' has at its handle ends 21 ', 22' lugs, of which the one handle end 21 ' serves to form a bearing point 15 'relative to the carrier 11'. It's located in In this case, an open bearing point 15 ', in which the handle end 21' a fork-shaped recess 23 'and the carrier 11' have a bearing pin 16 '.

The bearing point 15 'is only created when the handle 20' is installed. In addition, the Exterior door trim 14 'two openings 17', 18 'through which both handle end 21 'on the bearing side and the opposite handle end 22' be put through. During assembly, the outside of the door 13 'is not closed recognize whether the bearing components 23 ', 16' are properly engaged. The same applies to the other handle end 22 ', which is used in this assembly come into contact with an outlet leading to the lock in the door got to. This outlet is illustrated in FIG. 1 by an arrow 24 '. Concrete can do this by means of a lever arm 24 "of a linkage happen in a fork-shaped recess marked 22 "on Projection of the handle end 22 'engages there. When operating the handle 20 ' the closure is opened via the outlet 24 'when an unlocking position in the Closure is present.

After this assembly of the handle 20 'on the carrier 11' is in the area of the opening 18 'a locking cylinder 40' is inserted into the carrier 11 'next to the handle end 22' and attached there. A head region 41 'of this locking cylinder 40' comes next the handle 20 'to lie. The locking cylinder 40 'also has an arrow 44 'clarified the outlet, which when the lock cylinder 40' is actuated Closure acts and locks or unlocks it.

After the assembly of the handle 20 'and the locking cylinder 40', one from FIG. 1 is created with 49 'marked gap, because of the open deposit 15' and because the manufacturing tolerances can have different gap widths. The handle 20 ' has an undesirably large game in all three spatial directions. It arises with the known closure 10 'a relatively high friction, if one Handle 20 'between the drawn rest position and the dot-dash line clarified work situation. That is undesirable.

As can best be seen from FIGS. 3 and 5, the present invention Device 10 a special assembly 50 from a carrier 11 and another Swing arm 30 to be described in more detail. This assembly 50 comes as a result condition that one end 31 of the rocker 30 is a closed bearing 35 Carrier 11 forms. As can be seen from Fig. 3, a bearing pin 36 passes through two Bores 34 of the rocker 30 and is located with its two pin ends in bearing receptacles 19 from the carrier 11. In the distance between the two Bearing holes 34 may be arranged a return spring 45, which with their Windings encloses the central region of the bearing pin 36 and with their two Spring legs 46, 47 are illustrated by the force arrow 42 in FIG. 5 Restoring force exerts on the rocker 30.

This assembly 50 is attached to the inside of the door 12 and arrives on the inside the outer door panel 14 to lie. Although the handle 20 is still removed, it lies through the rocker 30 his bearing 35 already fixed in the carrier 11. Also lies with removed handle 20 be also shown in FIG. 2 by an arrow 24 Exit to the lock already fixed. The outlet 24 namely takes effect on the of the closed bearing 35 opposite rocker end 32. The handle 20 is only attached to the rocker 30 of the assembly 50, namely from the outside of the door 13, which is explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 5.

5 and 3, the handle 20 has at both ends 22 each have a coupling part 51, 52, the complementary mating coupling parts 61, 62 are assigned to the rocker 30. How particularly good from Fig. 5 to can be seen, there are those marked with 51 and 52 Coupling parts on brackets extending from the two ends 21, 22 of the handle 20 out. In the case of coupling, these brackets protrude from those shown in FIG. 5 Openings 17, 18 in the outer door panel 14. This results from the Coupling state of the handle 20 with the rocker 30 according to FIG. 2. The Coupling part 51 here consists of a protruding pin on one end of the handle 21, into a counter-coupling part 61 of the rocker 30 designed as a pin hole intervenes. This engagement of 51, 61 takes place in the direction of extension of the handle 20 or the swing arm 30.

The other coupling part 52 consists of an attachment at the handle end 22 extending web, which in the coupling case, as can be seen from Fig. 3, in a complementary web holder engages at the rocker end 32. This intervention can be secured. In the present case, this is used in the swing end 32 screwable locking screw 25 which has a bore 26 or a slot in the Web 52 penetrates. When tightening the locking screw 25, the engagement of the Coupling or counter-coupling parts 51, 52, 61, 62 fixed.

Fig. 2 shows the handle 20 in its rest position relative to the assembly 50 what is illustrated by the auxiliary line 20.1. This closure 10 is also a Lock cylinder 40 mounted in the carrier 11 according to FIG. 2. Because of the closed Bearing 35 there are no significant play tolerances, which is why now defined, narrow gap 49 between the handle 20 and the head region 41 of the Lock cylinder 40 is formed.

All this allows a very smooth handle operation, which is shown in Fig. 4 by the Swivel arrow 27 is illustrated. When actuated, the handle 20 comes into its 4 illustrated by the auxiliary line 20.2 in Fig., together with the rocker 30. The above-described bearing 35 of the rocker 30 is at the same time Bearing of the handle 20. Therefore, the rocker 30, together with the Handle 20 in its working position illustrated by the auxiliary line 30.2 in Fig. 4.

The handle 20 and the rocker 50 are because of the coupling described above jointly pivotable in the direction of arrow 27, thus forming one in FIG. 4 60 marked jointly pivotable assembly 60. This assembly 60 is also under the common action of the above-described return spring 45. The described restoring force 42 also applies to the handle 20. That is why the handle 20 endeavors to return to its rest position 20.1 of FIG. 2.

As indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 5, there are electrical or in the handle 20 electronic components 33, which have contacts 28 on the end 21 of the bearing are connected. In the present case, these consist of plug contacts which are in a with the handle 20 connected plug-in half 29 are summarized. this Contacts 28 are assigned to counter contacts 38 located on the rocker 30, which in the present case consist of plug-in receptacles. The counter contacts 38 are via electrical cables with control means or voltage sources in the Vehicle connected. The mating contacts 38 are also in a mating half 39 integrated and will be used in the creation of the electrical connection with the contacts 28 of the plug-in half 29 in engagement brought. This intervention is shown in FIGS. 2 and 4. In the recognizable in Fig. 4 described pivoting movement 27 of the assembly 60 are also with each other connected plug and mating halves 29, 39 pivoted with. To this end it is useful to make the electrical line 37 flexible.

The electrical engagement of the contacts 28 in the counter contacts 38 takes place in this closure 10 simultaneously with the mechanical engagement of the Coupling and counter-coupling parts 51, 52; 61, 62 between handle 20 and swing arm 30. These parts are engaged by two phases of movement having a retracting movement of the handle 20 compared to that on the door already attached assembly 50. The rocker 30 can be in a defined Are assembly position, which are marked in Fig. 5 by the 30.3 Guide line is illustrated. This assembly position 30.3 can by locking means be given in the schematic. Drawings are not shown. The Coupling takes place via the steering movement 55 of the handle 20 and can be divided into two different phases of movement illustrated by arrows 56, 57 in FIG. 5 divided.

When the handle 20 is coupled, the arrow 57 in FIG. 5 first finds it marked insertion phase instead. The contacts 28 are in this insertion phase 56 aligned with the mating contacts 38. The insertion phase ends with the electrical contact between the plug-in half 29 on the handle 20 and the Mating half 39 on the rocker 30. This insertion phase 56 takes place in substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the rocker 30 or the handle 20. When Further execution of the domes is then followed by arrow 57 in FIG. 5 illustrated displacement phase, which is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rocker 30 or the handle 20 is oriented. Then the pin comes from the coupling part 51 into the mortise of the counter coupling part 61 and the web from the other Coupling part 52 into the web receptacle of the associated mating coupling part 62. Then the described locking screw 25 is tightened. This is in the Mounting position 30.3 of Fig. 5 conveniently possible because the actuating end of the Locking screw 25 is accessible from the outside of the door 13.

After completion of the first insertion phase 56 of the restricting movement 55 Contact and counter-contact parts 28, 38 in electrical engagement, as already mentioned was, and the associated male and female half 29, 39 are from there agile together. The latter also applies to the second movement phase mentioned 57 when coupling handle 20 and rocker 30.

In the present case, the plug-in half 29 sits rigidly on the handle end 21. It could be here there is also an articulated connection. The plug-in half 29 is with the handle 20th even in one piece and therefore movable with the handle 20 in the direction of arrow 57. This displacement movement 57 can, however, also easily be carried out with the Execute slide 30 connected mating half 39, although here a stationary, immovable bearing 35 of the rocker 30 on the carrier 11 is present. In which Closure 10 is namely the mating half 39 relative to the handle 30 in the sense of Arrow 63 displaceable when the position of FIG. 5 with that of FIG. 2nd or 4 compares.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, the mating connector half 39 sits on one in the web 30 provided longitudinal guide 43. This longitudinal guide 43 enables the common Pivotal movement 27 of the entire assembly 60, to which also the one in Engagement male and female halves 29, 39 belong. In the described insertion movement 56 in the course of the coupling process 55 from the handle 20 the mating connector half 39 remains in its position because the longitudinal guide 43 is transverse this insertion movement 56 is oriented. This aligned position of the Mating half 39 can be temporarily fixed by locking means.

The plug-in half 29 and the mating plug-in half 39 need not only on the handle side or swing-side end 21, 31 according to FIG. 2. You could alternatively or additionally also in the area of the opposite ends 22, 32 of the Swing arm or the handle can be arranged. This is straightforward in the invention possible because, as has been mentioned, the handle 20 and the rocker 30 have one in common Form pivotable assembly 60. For this reason, the invention a better and more diverse electrification of the handle 20 compared to the prior art Technology possible.

In the present case, the carrier 11 has the shape of a peripheral frame, the Swing arm 30 is arranged in the frame interior 48. 2 and 3 apparent rest position 20.1 of the handle 20 are the support frame and the Swing 30 in matching planes. Alternatively, it would also be possible to use one Arrange the rocker in a level behind the beam. Doing so then recesses are provided in the carrier, which lead through the mentioned coupling and / or counter coupling halves between the handle and Enable swing arm.

After coupling the handle 20 to the rocker 30, as already described the locking screw 25 in the direction of arrow 53 into the threaded bore 54 of the counter coupling part 62 shown in FIG. 5 and inserted there screwed. Then the handle 20 is secured to the assembly 50. You can Not shown, already mentioned locking means that the rocker 30 first in hold their described mounting position 30.3 of Fig. 5 set ineffective become. Due to the restoring force 42, the entire assembly 60 is then in the Frame 11 pivoted back until the handle 20 again its apparent from FIG. 2 Has reached rest position 20.1. Then, like the insertion arrow 58 in FIG. 5 illustrates the locking cylinder 40 in the receptacle 59 provided for it Carrier 11 inserted and fixed there.

As can be seen from the mounting position shown in FIG. 5, the Mating coupling part 61 on the inside of the door 12 behind the outer door panel 14. The other mating coupling part 62 located at the free swing end 32 protrudes through the opening 18 of the outer door panel 14 substantially out and is located on the outside of the door 13. As a result, both the coupling part 52 and the counter-coupling part 62 is clearly visible when engaging. The Coupling movement can be performed just as reliably as the final one Activation of the securing means 25. But also the engagement of the bearing side Coupling and counter-coupling parts 51, 61 is foolproof. After this Insert 56 of the male half 29 into the mating male half 39 which runs Displacement phase 57 by the described longitudinal displacement 63 Mating connector 39 reliably by itself.

In the rest position of the handle, as shown in FIG. 2, both are in engagement Coupling and counter-coupling parts 51, 61; 52, 62 on the inside of the door, behind the outer door panel 14.

The described closed bearing 35 according to the invention could also in one 3 modified manner. So could the bearing pin Be part of the swing arm while the associated bearing hole in the beam is arranged.
