Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a locking mechanism for a glove compartment lid according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a locking mechanism for a glove compartment lid is known from prior use and is shown in Fig. 1, where a cam 3 having two opposite arms 6 is rotatable around a point 7 in a housing 2 which, in turn, is attached to the glove compartment lid (not shown) .
  • Each arm 6 is engaged in a groove 8 on a locking rod 1, so that the rod 1 slides back and forth between two end positions when the cam 3 is rotated back and forth, the rod 1 being slidingly held by two support points 10, 11 and urged by a spring 9 towards the locked position .
  • a boss 4 which passes through an opening 11 in the housing 2, the locking rod 1 and boss 4 together forming a unit which is comparable to a spring bolt in a conventional locking mechanism.
  • the boss 4 engages a recess or hole (not shown) in the dashboard construction (not shown) surrounding the glove compartment lid so that the two locking rods 1 thus prevent the opening of the lid in the locked position of the rods 1.
  • the cam 3 on its support 7 and the arms 6 on the cam are, however, left free to rattle against the support 7 and the insides of the grooves 8 in the locking rods 1, respectively, because the spring force of the springs 9 is 5 not large enough to keep the cam under tension.
  • Stiffer springs cannot solve this problem and would also make it inconvenient to operate the lock knob (not shown), used to transmit a turning motion to the cam 3 or a sliding motion to the rod 1, which cannot be too large owing to size 10 restrictions dictated by safety and other reasons.
  • Fig. 2 shows a locking mechanism for a glove compartment lid (not shown), in accordance with the present invention, which comprises a cam 3 having preferably two opposed arms 6a/6b.
  • the cam 3 is rotatable around an axis 7 in a housing 2 which, in turn, is attached to the glove compartment lid.
  • Each arm 6a/6b is engaged in a groove 8 defined by two side walls in a respective locking rod 1, so that the rod 1 slides back and forth between two end positions when the cam 3 is rotated back and forth, the rod being slidingly held by at least two support points 10, 11 and urged by a spring 9 towards the locked position .
  • a boss 4 which passes through an opening 11 in the housing 2 which opening also serves as a support point for the rod.
  • the locking rod 1 and boss 4 together form a unit which is comparable to a spring bolt in a conventional locking mechanism.
  • the boss 4 engages a recess or hole (not shown) in the dashboard construction (not shown) surrounding the glove compartment lid so that the two locking rods 1 thus prevent the opening of the lid in the locked position of the rods 1.
  • the mechanism of the present invention makes use of a lip 13 on the cam 3 for each rod.
  • the lip 13 serves as a stop so that the boss 4 is prevented from exiting too far out from the housing 2.
  • the lip 13 forces the arm 6a/6b into contact with a side wall of the groove 8 on the locking rod 1, thus effectively prohibiting any vibration induced rattling between the cam arms 6a/6b and the rod 1.
  • the spring 9 which is weak enough to facilitate the turning of the lock knob, imparts sufficient tension to the cam/locking rod system to hold it in the locked position.
  • Fig. 3 shows the application of a handle 14 which engages a stop 16 on the locking rod 1 so that when the handle 14 is tilted around the axis 15 the lever arm 17 is pushed against the stop 16 thus propelling the locking rod 1 in a direction to compresses the spring 9.
  • the rod 1 thus rotates the cam 3 via the arm 6a and the cam 3, in turn, moves the other rod via the other, opposed arm 6b.
  • cam is intended to encompass an element which is used to transfer either the rotary movement of a lock knob to a linear movement of the locking rods, via the cam arms engaging the locking rod grooves or the rocking/tilting motion of a lever arm or handle, which moves one of the rods back so that the spring is compressed, this rod thus rotates the cam and the cam, in turn, moves the other rod.
  • the mechanism may be used on any other type of lid which may be subject to vibrations.

Claims (3)

  1. Schließvorrichtung für einen Handschuhfach-Deckel oder dergleichen, mit einem Steuerprofil (3), das wenigstens einen sich radial erstreckenden Arm (6a, 6b) aufweist, wobei der Arm (6a, 6b) sich in Eingriff mit einer Nut (8) befindet, die von zwei Seitenwänden in einer Schließstange (1) gebildet ist, welche einen Vorsprung (4) zum Eingriff mit einem Aufnahmeelement außerhalb des Deckels aufweist, wobei die Stange mittels wenigstens zwei Lagerpunkten (10, 11) derart gleitend verschiebbar gehalten ist, dass die Stange (1) zwischen den beiden Endstellungen beim Drehen des Steuerprofils (3) in Vorwärts- und Rückwärtsrichtung vor und zurück verschiebbar ist, wobei die Stange mittels einer Feder (9) in Richtung auf die verjüngte Stellung gedrückt ist und wobei in der verriegelten Stellung ein Keilwinkel (13) auf dem Steuerprofil (3) den Arm (6a, 6b) unter Wirkung der Feder (9) in Berührung mit einer Seitenwand der Nut (8) in der Schließstange (1) drückt, dadurch gekennzeichnet,
    dass der Keilwinkel (13) auf dem Steuerprofil (3) einen Abschnitt der Schließstange (1) kontaktiert und als ein Anschlag derart fungiert, dass der Vorsprung (4) an einem zu weiten Austreten aus dem Gehäuse (2) gehindert ist.
  2. Schließvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1,
    dadurch gekennzeichnet,
    dass das Steuerprofil (3) zwei radial gegenüberliegende Arme (6a, 6b) besitzt, die jeweils mit einer entsprechenden Schließstange (1) zusammenwirken.
