Definitions

  • the present invention is based on the object to simplify a door holder of the described generic type structurally and thereby reduce the manufacturing and assembly costs as well as the total weight.
  • An inventive door holder 1 consists on the one hand of a rigid, rod-shaped or strip-shaped door-tether 2 and on the other hand of a holding part 12.
  • the tether 2 is at one end to an only partially indicated vehicle axle 4 articulated via a pivot bearing 6, d. H. pivotable about a pivot axis 8, fastened, while the holding part 12 in the region of a so-called door head of a likewise indicated only vehicle door 10 is to be fastened such that it is stationary relative to the door 10 (rigid).
  • the tether 2 extends relatively movable through the holding part 12 and with its free, the pivot bearing 6 opposite end 14 with variable length movement over the holding part 12 also into a cavity of the door 10 into it.
  • the holding part 12 has at least one latching element 18, which is acted upon by a force accumulator 20 in the direction of the tether 2 out with a spring force F and cooperates with locking points 22 of the tether 2.
  • the holding part 12 also has a holding portion 24.
  • the holding part 12 only has a single latching points 22 formed as recesses or recesses on only one longitudinal edge 28 of the catching strap 2 cooperating locking element 18.
  • the holding part 12 additionally has an opposing abutment element 30 (see in particular FIGS. 8 to 10), which supports the tether 2 against the detent spring force F generated by the force accumulator 20.
  • the abutment element 30 is arranged offset in the longitudinal direction of the tether 2 somewhat in the direction of its free end 14 with respect to the detent element 18.
  • the spring portion 34 thus extends substantially parallel to the latching element 18 forming end portion 32 of the molding 26, wherein the connecting portion 36, the tether 2 crosses.
  • the aforementioned abutment element 30 is in this case formed by a voltage applied to the tether 2 portion of the spring portion 34.
  • acting as a torsion spring portion 34 is guided in its the lever-like connecting portion 36 proximate (upper) area in an abutment 38 against transversely directed to its longitudinal deflection movements.
  • the abutment 38 of the other, the latching element 18 forming end portion 32 opposite end portion 40 of the wire-bending molding 26 is formed by this end portion 40 is bent like a loop, that it wraps around the spring portion 34 in its region to be supported. This is preferably done indirectly with an intermediate arrangement of an annular bearing part 42, which expediently consists of a suitable plastic.
  • the holding portion 24 is formed of two sections of the wire-shaped part 26, namely two flat embossed or compressed portions 24 a and 24 b. These sections each have a threaded element 44 for the door-side attachment.
  • each threaded member 44 is designed as a threaded bore, but it may alternatively be a set threaded bolt.
  • the two sections 24a, 24b are connected to each other via an intermediate portion 46 of the molding 26.
  • one (upper) section 24a merges into the anvil 38 and the other (lower) section 24b into the spring section 34.
  • FIGS. 2 and 5 to 7 the attachment of the holding part 12 in the door head area in the vehicle door 10 by mounting screws 48, which engage through holes in the door panel into the threaded holes 44.
  • the intermediate section 46 connecting the sections 24a, 24b of the holding section 24 directly to each other can be rectilinear in the area between two bends of approximately 90 ° (see the embodiments according to FIGS. 11 to 14, FIGS. 17 and 18 as well as FIGS. 21 to 26) ). However, in the embodiments according to FIGS. 1 to 10 and FIGS. 15 and 16 as well as 19 and 20, it is provided that the intermediate section 46 has a region 50 which is bent like a bead in the direction of the tether 2.
  • the latching element 18 is advantageously arranged relative to the holding section 24 (or relative to the sections 24 a, 24 b) in such a manner that when mounted with the vehicle door 10 Connected state of the holding part 12, the locking element 18 in a outside of the vehicle door 10 between this and the vehicle's vertical 4 lying gap, ie in front of the so-called door head, is arranged. This is achieved by a corresponding bending shaping of the holding part 12.
  • This advantageous feature contributes to a very short design of the tether 2.
  • the holding part 12 has two opposing latching elements 18 with opposite directions of action.
  • the two locking elements 18 then act together with latching points formed on opposite longitudinal edges of the tether (not shown).
  • the two locking elements 18 are formed by two free, mutually substantially parallel end portions 32 of the molded part 26.
  • Each locking element 18 is connected via an associated, the force accumulator 20 forming spring portion 34 with the holding portion 24 and one of the two sections 24a, 24b.
  • each spring portion 34 acts as an elongated bending spring and / or as a torsion spring, depending on the bending waveform. This should be easy to understand on the basis of the illustrations.
  • the latching element 18 thus has a superficial metal surface and the tether 2 in the area of the longitudinal edge 28 having the latching points 22 on the surface of a plastic, so that it is a metal in each case with sliding friction relative to one another Plastic mating acts.
  • a superficial metal surface and the tether 2 in the area of the longitudinal edge 28 having the latching points 22 on the surface of a plastic, so that it is a metal in each case with sliding friction relative to one another Plastic mating acts.
  • the pivot bearing 6 is formed by a one-piece shaped bearing member 64 which on one side to be fastened to the vehicle body 4 mounting portion 66 and on the other hand a rivet-like, directly to the tether 2 pivotally connected and engaging in a bearing opening 68 of the tether 2 Storage section 70 has.
  • the bearing portion 70 is seated with a cylindrical shaft within the bearing opening 68, wherein the tether 2 between a ring web-like bearing edge 72 and a rivet head 74 is substantially free of play and thereby guided against tilting. As shown in FIG.
  • the invention is not limited to the illustrated and described embodiments, but also includes all the same in the context of the invention embodiments.
  • a reverse arrangement in the vehicle is possible by the holding part 12 is attached to the vehicle axle 4, while the tether 2 is articulated via the pivot bearing 6 on the door 10 in the door head area.
  • the invention has hitherto not been limited to the feature combination defined in claim 1, but may also be defined by any other combination of specific features of all individually disclosed individual features. This means that in principle virtually every individual feature of claim 1 can be omitted or replaced by at least one individual feature disclosed elsewhere in the application. In this respect, the claim 1 is to be understood only as a first formulation attempt for an invention.
