Technical Field

The invention relates to a handle (handhadhabe) as defined in the preamble of claim 1. In particular, the invention also relates to a method for mounting a handle to a motor vehicle.

Background

It is known from the prior art to provide a handle for a motor vehicle via a mounting bracket fixed in the door of the motor vehicleAnd a handle (Griff) disposed on the outer side of the door. This has the disadvantage that there is always the possibility of installation delays and inaccuracies. The reason for this is that certain parts of the handle are difficult to install due to their geometry, and installation is often more complicated, especially due to space constraints.

disclosure of Invention

The object of the present invention is therefore to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages at least in part. In particular, the invention aims to provide a handle which can be mounted on a motor vehicle as easily as possible.

the above-mentioned object is achieved by a handle having the features of claim 1 and by a method having the features of claim 21. Further features and details of the invention are apparent from the respective dependent claims, the description and the drawings. Thus, features and details relating to the handle of the present invention are equally applicable to the mounting method of the present invention and vice versa. Accordingly, the disclosure of the various inventive aspects is always mutually referenced.

the object is achieved in particular by a handle for a motor vehicle, having a mounting bracket which can be fastened on the inside of a motor vehicle door, and having a handle which can be arranged on the outside of the motor vehicle door and is fastened to the mounting bracket. In particular, in this case, the cylinder unit (Schlie β zylindereinheit) is movably mounted on the mounting bracket, so that the cylinder unit can be moved between a pre-mounting position (Vormontagestellung) and a final mounting position (Endmontagestellung). When the cylinder unit is in the pre-installation position, sufficient space is provided for the handle to be secured directly or indirectly to the mounting bracket. When the cylinder unit is in the final mounting position, in particular, the user can access the cylinder unit, recognizing that it is inserted by means of a key. Advantageously, a compact structure of the handle can be achieved by the movable cylinder unit. The pre-installation position avoids undesired collisions with the handle to be installed on the mounting bracket. Advantageously, the mounting bracket with the movable cylinder unit is integrated, which is initially set by the operator on the inside of the door, with the cylinder unit in the pre-mounted position.

The present invention can achieve another advantage when the cylinder unit is pivotally mounted. That is, the rotatable key cylinder unit contributes to the compactness of the handle of the present invention. Furthermore, the cylinder unit is less prone to wear and/or can be structurally reduced to fewer parts in terms of kinematics (Kinematik).

It is also possible within the scope of the invention for the mounting bracket to have a control element (solid) which can be moved from a holding position (Halstellung) to a securing position (Sicherungsteng), wherein the cylinder unit is in a pre-installation position (Vormontagestellung) when the control element is in the holding position and the cylinder unit is in a final installation position (Endmontagestellung) when the control element is in the securing position. The control element is movably disposed on the mounting bracket and is movable between a holding position and a securing position. The control element advantageously acts on the cylinder unit, guiding it into its pre-installation or final installation position. Advantageously, the control element is movably mounted on the mounting bracket, so that an operator can act on the control element to effect a corresponding movement of the cylinder unit.

Furthermore, it is within the scope of the invention for the lock cylinder unit to have a control geometry (steuergeometer) on which the control element acts, in particular the control element having a fastening element (verindungselement) which is operatively connected to the control geometry. For example, the fastening element can be a cam (Nocken), a projection (vorprpung), or a groove (vertieff). During the movement of the control element, the fastening element is moved along the control geometry, whereby a movement of the cylinder unit from the pre-installation position to the final installation position and/or vice versa can be achieved. The fastening element thus exerts a force on the control geometry, which force moves the cylinder unit.

Advantageously, it is also possible for the control geometry to be at least partially curved. The control geometry can likewise have a partially linear section, whereby the movement, in particular the rotational movement, of the cylinder unit can be influenced essentially.

Furthermore, the control element may have an actuatorBy actuation of the actuator, the control element can be moved from the holding position to the fixing position and/or vice versa. The actuator may be in an exposed position so that it is easy for an operator to operate. In this exemplary embodiment, the actuator is a drive (antitriebsmitel) which moves the control element and the cylinder unit accordingly.

It is also possible that the actuator is at least partly outside the mounting bracket. Advantageously, the mounting bracket is first fixed to the inside of the door, whereby it is easy to install the actuator that a user can conveniently operate. Advantageously, the actuators may have corresponding identifiers or colors, thereby improving the ease of installation.

The actuator may also be manually operated. The actuators may also be operated by corresponding tools. Furthermore, the actuator can also be a screw member which acts on the mounting bracket and on the control element.

alternatively, the mounting bracket may have a cavityA control element is disposed in the cavity. Wherein the cavity is arranged such that the control element is movable within the cavity between a retaining position and a fixed position. For example, the cavity may determine the boundaries of movement of the control element. Furthermore, it is also possible that the cavity is at least partially adapted toThe geometry of the control element thereby ensures that the control element is reliably guided within the cavity between the holding position and the fixing position. Advantageously, the control element is simply placed in the cavity. Connecting the control element to the mounting bracket, for example by means of an actuator, prevents the control element from falling out of the cavity.

The control element can also have a receptacle (Aufnahme) in which the cylinder unit is arranged. In particular, the cylinder unit is partially covered by the control element. In one aspect, the control device provides protection for the cylinder unit. On the other hand, this makes it possible to achieve good support (lagerig) of the cylinder unit on the control element.

Another advantage of the invention is that the control element has two fixed sides (Sicherungsseiten) and one actuating sideThe actuating side connects two oppositely arranged fastening sides, between which the cylinder unit is arranged. Advantageously, the cylinder unit can be surrounded by at least three sides of the control element. Advantageously, an actuator is provided on the actuating side to move the control element accordingly. Advantageously, the control element is designed in a U-shape. The rotational axis of the cylinder unit may extend through at least one of the two fixed sides. A compact handle can be achieved if the fixing side is designed with a longer extension than the actuating side.

Another advantage is that the control element has a rib (Rippe) on at least one side thereof, whereby a reliable guidance is achieved during the movement of the control element on the mounting bracket. In particular, at least one fixing side has a rib. The ribs may be in contact with the wall of the cavity, whereby the path of movement of the control element is predetermined. Furthermore, the ribs facilitate that during movement of the control element, the latter does not twist or tilt. Preferably, the rib extends along the entire length of the control element, in particular on the fastening side. Advantageously, the control element and the rib form a single, common and/or homogeneous integral part. It is also possible to provide the control element with ribs on several sides, respectively. The direction of elongation of the ribs corresponds to the direction of movement of the control element, which is advantageous for guidance in the cavity.

It is also possible that the control element is arranged in the mounting bracket such that the control element is linearly movable between the holding position and the fixing position. The linear movement of the control element facilitates a simple implementation of the kinematics of the cylinder unit.

It is also possible that the control element has a receiving region (Aufnahme) and the cylinder unit has a shaft body through which the shaft passes. The shaft is disposed in the receiving area. In particular, during the movement of the control element, the shaft body moves relatively within the receiving region. The receiving area of the control element serves as a bearing to ensure reliable movement of the cylinder unit. Advantageously, during the movement of the control element, only the cylinder unit is moved rotationally about its axis. This means that the cylinder unit does not perform a linear movement. When the control element is moved, the receiving area extends accordingly, in order to provide a reliable support for the shaft body.

it is also possible that the receiving region has an inner region (inner Bereich) and an edge region (Randbereich), wherein the receiving region is provided as an openingThe opening becomes smaller the second time from the inner region to the edge region. When the control element is in the holding position, the shaft body is located in the inner region, and when the control element is in the securing position, the shaft body is located in the edge region. The advantage of a receiving region which is open on one side is that the cylinder unit can be easily mounted with its spindle in the receiving region. The edge region and the inner region provide a corresponding displacement space for the spindle body, thereby ensuring the movement of the displacement control element and the cylinder unit. Advantageously, the inner region can form a stop (Anschlag) for the shaft body.

Another advantage of the invention is that when the shaft body is designed cylindrically, the side surface of the shaft body at least partially has at least one flat surface which, when the control element is in the securing position, is in contact with the wall of the receiving area. Advantageously, the cylindrical design of the shaft body facilitates a reliable rotational movement of the lock cylinder unit about its axis. The flat surface can rest on a flat wall of the receiving region, in particular on a peripheral region of the receiving region, when the control element is in the securing position and when the cylinder unit is in the final mounting position. Thereby, the cylinder unit is locked in the final mounting position. Preferably, since the flat surface of the shaft body and the receiving portion area of the control element overlap each other, the final mounting position of the cylinder unit is reliably maintained.

It is also possible that the cylinder unit has at least one locking element (ratchet) which engages with a counter-locking element (Gegeneraselocking) of the control element when the control element is in the securing position and is released from the counter-locking element when the control element is in the retaining position. In particular, the locking element and/or the counter-locking element are provided as ribs. Advantageously, an additional position assurance function of the cylinder unit in the final mounting position can thereby be achieved. Thereby, the control member not only has a function of moving the cylinder unit, but also reliably ensures that the cylinder unit is in the final mounting position. The securing of the lock cylinder unit in the final mounting position is achieved on the one hand by the above-described counter-locking element and on the other hand by a special geometric design of the receiving region in which the spindle body can be mounted displaceably.

Furthermore, a movable activation element (Aktivierungselement) can also be arranged on the mounting bracket. When in the holding position, the control element acts on the activation element, whereby the activation element is held in the mounting position, whereby the mounting of the handle is simplified. When in the secured position, the control element is released from the activation element. Advantageously, the activation element is pivotally mounted on the mounting bracket. The closing and/or opening action of the motor vehicle door can be triggered by moving the activation element. For example, the activation element triggers the opening process of a lock provided on the door by its movement. The activation of the respective action by the activation element may be done mechanically and/or electrically or wirelessly. Since the handle is operatively connected to the activation element, the user can activate corresponding actions for opening and/or closing the motor vehicle door by actuating the handle.

the invention also relates to a method for mounting a handle for a motor vehicle, in particular the handle of the invention described above, having: a mounting bracket fixable at an inner side of a door of a motor vehicle; a handle which can be arranged on the outer side of the motor vehicle door and is fixed on the mounting bracket; and a cylinder unit movably mounted on the mounting bracket. In this case, the cylinder unit is moved from the pre-installation position to the final installation position by movement of a control element which is arranged on the mounting bracket and is operatively connected to the cylinder unit. The method of the invention therefore has the same advantages as the handle of the invention described in detail. Furthermore, the method is suitable for reliably fixing the handle on the activation element, while the control element holds the activation element in its mounting position. After installation, the control element is in the fixed position, the handle rests directly against the door and the activation element continues to deviate from the installation position (Montagestellung) to the operating position (Betriebsstellung).

it is also possible that the handle is arranged on the mounting bracket, in particular on an activation element which is movable on the mounting bracket, when the cylinder unit is arranged in the pre-mounting position, and that the control element is then moved from the holding position to the securing position. Advantageously, the pre-mounted position of the handle provides sufficient mounting space for a reliable fixation of the activation element.

Preferably, it is also possible that in the retaining position the control element retains the activation element in the mounting position, and during the movement of the control element to the securing position the control element is released from the activation element, which is moved to the operating position. The control element has a plurality of functions, on the one hand it effects a displacement of the cylinder unit from the pre-installation position into the final installation position and/or vice versa. On the other hand, the control element holds the activation element in its mounting position, so that the handle is easily mounted on the activation element. When the control element is moved to the fixed position, the operative connection between the control element and the activation element is released.

further advantages of the invention, as well as the characteristics and details of the product to which the invention relates, will become apparent from the following description. In the following description, examples of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The features mentioned in the claims and in the description may be combined individually or in other desired combinations and are in accordance with the invention. The description is as follows:

In the following drawings, different technical examples having the same technical features are given the same reference numerals.

Fig. 1 to 12 show a handle 1 according to the invention, which is attachable to a door 2 of a motor vehicle, the handle 1 having a mounting bracket 30, the mounting bracket 30 being fixed on the inside of the door 2, and on the outside of the door 2 the handle 1 having a handle 10, which handle 10 is operated by a user, in particular, it can be pulled. As shown in fig. 1, the handle 10 is a hand grip (Ziehgriff), and the handle 10 is rotatably attached to the mounting bracket 30 on the right side thereof, but is not shown. On its left side, the handle 10 has a ridge 11, as shown in fig. 5, so that by a pulling action of the user the ridge 11 in the mounting bracket 30 triggers a defined kinematic action, and then according to the exemplifying example the handle 10 is operatively connected with an activation element 60, which means that a locking system in the motor vehicle can be triggered by the movement of the activation element 60. For example, it is conceivable that the opening operation and/or the closing operation of the vehicle door 2, etc. can be achieved by movement of the activation element 60. In this example, the activation element 60 may be rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 30 about a bearing 63. The activation element 60 has an attachment area 62(Befestigungszone), in which the free end 12 of the spine 11 is held firmly, and the activation element 60 also has an attachment receptacle 64(Befestigungsaufnahme), as shown in fig. 7, in which, for example, a Bowden cable can be fixed, which can then be pulled by a corresponding movement of the activation element 60, thereby mechanically initiating the triggering action.

furthermore, it is also possible for the activation element 60 to have a mass balancer (Massenausgleich)65, as shown in fig. 3. The mass balancer 65 serves to prevent the door handle 10 from opening outward in the outside of the door 2 due to acceleration force in the event of a collision.

According to the example of fig. 1 to 12, the handle 1 has a control element 40, which control element 40 is operatively connected to a fixing element 80 (schecherungselement) arranged on the outside of the vehicle door 2. The control element 40 can be moved from the holding position 5 shown in fig. 3 to 6 and 8 to 10 into the fixing position 6 shown in fig. 2, 7, 9, 11, in which case the control element 40 has different functions, which are explained below. As shown in particular in fig. 10, 11, the distance between the fixing element 80 and the control element 40 is reduced by the movement of the control element 40 from the holding position 5 to the fixing position 6. In this case, the fastening element 80 has a locking device 81 (arrestiermittel) which engages in a counter-locking device 50 (gegenarremitteltel) of the control element 40.

as can be seen from the other figures, the fixing element 80 comprises an attachment area 82 on the opposite side of the locking device 81, the attachment area 82 being provided on the mounting bracket 30. When the control element 40 is moved from the holding position 5 into the fixing position 6, the fixing element 80 pivots about the rotation axis 83, wherein the rotation axis 83 extends through the attachment region 82. As can be seen from fig. 5, the control element 40 is moved linearly to the left (see double arrow), while the securing element 80 is pivoted in the clockwise direction about the rotation axis 83 passing through the attachment area 82. At this point, the fixing element 80 and its locking device 81 perform a certain lifting movement in the direction of the control element 40, which is less than 2 mm. Advantageously, the fastening element 80 has a seal 85(Dichtung) on the side 84 facing the control element 40, which seal is not illustrated.

In order to make it possible for the fastening element 80 to be moved in the direction of the door 2 by moving the control element 40 in the direction of the fastening point 6, the locking device 81 of the fastening element 80 has an active surface 87the reaction surface 87 is located on the reaction surface 51 of the control element 40And (6) jointing. The active surface 87 and the reaction surface 51 interact with each other such that the locking means 81 is pulled towards the counter-locking means 50 upon movement of the control element 40 in the direction of the fixing position 6. The upward arrow shown in fig. 10 shows the lifting direction of the fixing member 80, and the fixing member 80 is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 83 at opposite sides.

The control element 40 has an actuator 42, which, upon actuation of the actuator 42, can trigger the control element 40 to move from; movement of the holding position 5 to the fixing position 6 and/or vice versa. The actuator 42 is disposed on the exterior of the mounting bracket 30 so that the installer can advantageously operate the actuator 42, the actuator 42 being a threaded member that is manually operable, the actuator 42 acting on the mounting bracket 30 and on the controller 40.

The mounting bracket 30 has a cavity 31, and the control member 40 is movably disposed in the cavity 31. The control element 40 also has ribs 43 on its fastening sides 45.1 and 45.2, respectively, which ribs 43 can serve as guides during the movement of the control element 40 on the mounting bracket 30. The fixed side 45.1 is opposite 45.2. As the control element 40 moves, the rib 43 slides on the inner wall 32 of the cavity 31.

when the control element 40 is in the retaining position 5, the control element 40 acts on the activation element 60, as a result of which the activation element 60 is retained in the mounting position 7. As a result, a simplified mounting of the handle 10 on the activation element 60 can be achieved.

The control element 40 has a holding region 49, which holding region 49 engages on a contact surface 61 of the activation element 60 in the holding position 5 of the control element 40.

Fig. 5 shows the contact of the ridge 11 of the handle 10 with the safety area 82 of the fixing element 80. In addition, the figure shows that the handle 1 contains a key cylinder unit 20. However, all the embodiments of the present embodiment are also applicable to the handle 1 not including the key cylinder unit 20. In this example, a handle 1 is shown with a cylinder unit 20 movably mounted on a mount bracket 30. The cylinder unit 20 can thus be located between a pre-mounting position 3 and a final mounting position 4, in which the cylinder unit 20 is rotatably mounted about an axis 21. When the control element 40 is in the retaining position 5, the cylinder unit 20 is in its pre-loading position 3. When the control element 40 is in the locking position 6, the cylinder unit 20 is in its final mounting position 4. In the final mounting position 4, the cylinder unit 20 can be keyed by the user. If the handle 10 is not activated on the door 2The handle 10 completely covers the head area (kopfbergeich) of the key cylinder unit 20.

The cylinder unit 20 has a geometry 22 in the form of a control element, the control element 40 acting on the control geometry 22. The control element 40 thus has a fastening element 41, the fastening element 41 forming a projection-like shape and being operatively connectable with the control geometry 22. The control geometry 22 is at least partially curved so that a rotational movement about the axis 21 is facilitated.

The control element 40 has a receptacle (Aufnahme)44, in which receptacle 44 the cylinder unit 20 is arranged, the cylinder unit 20 thus being partially surrounded by the control element 40. In the present example, the control element 40 has two fixed sides 45.1, 45.2 and an actuating side 45.3. The actuation side 45.3 connects the two opposite fixing sides 45.1 and 45.2, the cylinder unit 20 being located between the fixing sides 45.1 and 45.2 and the actuator 42 being located at the actuation side 45.3.

The control element 40 has a receiving region (Aufnahmebereich)46, and the cylinder unit 20 has a shaft body 23, wherein the shaft 21 extends through the shaft body 23. The shaft body 23 is arranged in a receiving region 46, wherein during a movement of the control element 40 the shaft body 23 moves within the receiving region 46.

As shown in fig. 5, 6, 7, the receiving region 46 has an inner region (inner Bereich)46.1 and an edge region (Randbereich)46.2, and the receiving region 46 is provided as an opening so that the shaft body 23 is easily mounted. As shown in fig. 7, when the control element 40 is in the holding position 5, the shaft body 23 is located in a left inner region 46.1 of the receiving region 46. When the control element 40 is in the fastening position 6, the shaft body 23 is located in the edge region 46.2. The shaft body 23 is provided in a cylindrical shape, but the shaft body 23 has two flat surfaces 24 on its side surface. When the control element 40 is in the securing position 6, the flat surface 24 abuts against the flat inner wall 47 of the receiving region 46, thus achieving a secure locking effect of the cylinder unit 20 on the control element 40.

the cylinder unit 20 can also have a locking element (ratchet) 25, which locking element 25 engages with a counter-locking element (Gegenbackstem) 48 of the control element 40 when the control element 40 is in the securing position 6, as shown in fig. 12. Conversely, when the control element 40 is in the retaining position 5, the locking element 25 is released from the counter-locking element 48, but this is not illustrated. In the following examples, the locking element 25 and the counter-locking element 48 are rib-shaped.

The fixing element 80 has an opening 86 for accessing the cylinder unit 20. For safety reasons, the control element 40 is preferably made of metal, and the fixing element 80 may be made of steel material. In a further alternative, not explicitly shown, the fixing element 80 is provided in a closed form, in this example the handle 1 without the cylinder unit 20, where the control element 40 can be made of plastic.

the handle 1 of the invention is characterized in particular in that the mounting method of the handle 1 to the motor vehicle is greatly simplified. First, the mounting bracket 30 is mounted on the inside of the vehicle door 2 together with the control member 40. It is contemplated that the cylinder unit 20 may be integral with the mounting bracket 30, or the mounting bracket 30 may be provided without the cylinder unit 20. Subsequently, the fixing member 80 is fixed from the outside of the door 2, wherein the door 2 is reached from the outside of the handle 10 with the ridge 11 and fixed to the door 2. At this point, the ridge 11 is guided in the direction of the mounting bracket 30, while the activation element 60 is in the mounting position 7. While the control element 40 keeps the activation element 60 in the mounting position 7. When the spine 11 is arranged on the activation element 60, the worker may act on the actuator 42 and rotate it, so that the movement of the control element 40 in the direction of the fixing position 6 is initiated. The activation element 60 loses contact with the control element 40, so that the activation element 60 moves away from the mounting position 7 autonomously in the direction of the operating position 8. By moving the control element 40 in the direction of the fastening point 6, a force is introduced into the fastening element 80, and the fastening element 80 is pulled about its axis of rotation 83 in the direction of the control element 40. At the same time, a force is exerted on the mounting bracket 30, as a result of which the mounting bracket 30 is pressed more strongly against the vehicle door 2, so that an effective tension of the handle 1 against the vehicle door 2 is achieved.

If the handle 1 contains a cylinder unit 20, the cylinder unit 20 is moved from the pre-installation position 3 to the final installation position 4 by the control element 40 being moved to the securing position 6. When the final mounting position 4 is reached, the locking element 25 will act together with the counter-locking element 48 of the control element 40, so that a locking position of the cylinder unit 20 is achieved.

The description of the exemplary form set forth above merely describes the invention within an exemplary framework. The individual features of the examples can be freely combined with one another as far as technically feasible without departing from the scope of the invention.
