Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a locking assembly, and an engagement element, of the door of vehicles.
  • apparatuses which are also known as undersill devices and are adapted to the stably lock the rear door, in a configuration for closing the internal compartment of the body, with which typically such vehicles are provided, in order to allow the storage of the goods to be transported.
  • Such apparatuses thus prevent the accidental opening of the door, but can be actuated by a user who wants to gain access to the compartment.
  • undersill devices are thus provided with a contoured plate, which can be fixed to the body (below the door for example), and a lever, which is rigidly supported by the base of a vertical rod, which is rotatably mounted on the door.
  • the lever when the door is arranged to close the compartment, the lever is arranged proximate to the plate and can be engaged, with one of its ends, with a corresponding retaining element, provided on the plate itself, thus defining the secured configuration of the door.
  • undersill devices also comprise a pawl element, which is in turn rigidly supported by the top of the vertical rod, and which, when the door is pulled to on the body, can be engaged with a further plate (sometimes called a "strike plate") which is anchored to the frame of the vehicle (for example above the door).
  • a pawl element which is in turn rigidly supported by the top of the vertical rod, and which, when the door is pulled to on the body, can be engaged with a further plate (sometimes called a "strike plate" which is anchored to the frame of the vehicle (for example above the door).
  • the user In order to gain access to the compartment, the user simply has to actuate the lever, in order to determine the simultaneous disengagement of the lever and of the pawl element (which is integral with it), respectively from the plate and from the strike plate, and thus be able to rotate the door allowing entry inside the vehicle.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the above mentioned problems, by providing an assembly that ensures the locking of the door of a vehicle in the partially open configuration as well, in which the internal compartment is thus placed in communication with the external environment.
  • an object of the invention is to provide an element that makes it possible to perform the locking of the door of a vehicle in the partially open configuration, in which the internal compartment is thus placed in communication with the external environment.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a locking assembly that ensures the locking of the door in the partially open configuration, with a coupling that is secure and stable, even against shocks and violent stresses brought to bear on the door, without affecting the ease of actuation for the user.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide an engagement element that can be adopted on closure devices of existing doors, without requiring structural modifications to such doors.
  • a still further object of the invention is to provide a locking assembly that ensures a high reliability of operation.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a locking assembly that can be easily implemented using elements and materials that are readily available on the market.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a locking assembly that is low cost and safely applied.
  • an assembly for locking the door of vehicles comprising at least one base plate, which can be coupled rigidly to the chassis of a vehicle, proximate to an opening for access to an internal compartment, and a lever, which is anchored rigidly to a rod that can be supported rotatably by a door for closing the compartment, said plate and said lever being affected by first coupling means, which can be actuated at a first angular position of said lever and with the door arranged in the configuration for closing the compartment, in order to lock the door, and by second coupling means, which can be actuated at at least one second angular position of said lever and with the door partially rotated with respect to the closed configuration, in order to lock the door in at least one partially open configuration, said first coupling means comprising a first, curved end of said lever which can be engaged by interlocking below a crossmember
  • an engagement element for assemblies for locking the door of vehicles comprising at least one base plate, which can be coupled rigidly to the chassis of a vehicle, proximate to an opening for access to an internal compartment, and a lever, which is anchored rigidly to a rod that is supported rotatably by a door for closing the compartment, the plate and the lever being affected by coupling means, which can be actuated at a first angular position of the lever and with the door arranged in the configuration for closing the compartment, in order to lock the door, the coupling means comprising a first, curved end of the lever which can be engaged by interlocking below a crossmember, which is supported in a cantilever manner by the plate, characterized in that it comprises a shell, which defines internally a recess that is shaped complementarily to said second end, for shape mating with said lever, and a contoured surface
  • the reference numeral 1 generally designates a locking assembly of the door A of vehicles B; the vehicles B can be of any type (as can the doors A), while remaining within the scope of protection claimed herein, but according to the preferred application the vehicles B are of the type of vans, trucks, lorries, semi-trailer trucks, trailers and the like and the assembly 1 enables the locking of the rear door A of such vehicles B, which is normally designed for closing an internal compartment used for the storage and transport of different types of goods.
  • the assembly 1 comprises at least one base plate 2, which can be rigidly coupled to the chassis C of the vehicle B, proximate to an opening for access to the internal compartment, and a lever 3, which is anchored rigidly to a rod 4 that can be supported rotatably by the door A for closing the compartment.
  • first coupling means 5 which can be actuated (manually by a user) at a first angular position of the lever 3 and with the door A arranged in the configuration for closing the compartment (shown in Figures 1 , 2 and 3 ), in order to lock the door A, guarding against its accidental opening and preventing unwanted access to the compartment.
  • the first coupling means 5 can comprise a first, curved end 3a of the lever 3 which can be engaged by interlocking below a crossmember 6, which is supported in a cantilever manner by the plate 2 (for example thanks to two mutually parallel side walls 7 which extend from the plate 2).
  • the plate 2 and the lever 3 are affected by second coupling means, which can in turn be actuated (by a user) at at least one second angular position of the lever 3 and with the door A partially rotated with respect to the closed configuration (as in Figure 4 ), in order to lock the door A in at least one partially open configuration, in order to allow at least a change of air between the internal compartment and the external environment.
  • the locking assembly 1 can also comprise an abutment plate 8 (also called a "strike plate”), which in turn can be coupled rigidly to the chassis C of the vehicle B, usually above the door A (and substantially in vertical alignment with the plate 2).
  • abutment plate 8 also called a "strike plate”
  • the plate 8 comprises detachable anchoring means 9 for a pawl element 10, which in turn can be rigidly keyed for example on the top of the rod 4, i.e. at the opposite end to the lever 3 and to the plate 2.
  • such detachable anchoring means 9 can comprise a contoured end nose 10a of the pawl element 10, which is adapted to engage with a sort of bracket 8a, which is supported by the plate 8.
  • the rotation of the lever 3 integrally determines the movement of the pawl element 10, which, while the lever 3 engages with the plate 2 thanks to the first coupling means 5, couples with the plate 8 by way of the detachable anchoring means 9, thus consolidating the stable locking of the door A in the configuration for closing the compartment.
  • the plate 8, the pawl element 10 and the detachable anchoring means 9 can be made according to different methods, including conventional (and for example according to what can be seen in the accompanying figures), and we will therefore not discuss such components further.
  • the second coupling means comprise a contoured engagement element 11, which is anchored externally to a second end 3b of the lever 3, which is opposite the first end 3a; such contoured element 11 can engage by elastic forcing with the crossmember 6, when the lever 3 is arranged in the second angular position and when the door A is partially rotated with respect to the closed configuration, so as to ensure the locking of the door A in the partially open configuration as well.
  • the contoured engagement element 11 comprises a shell 12, preferably made of a polymeric material, which defines internally a recess 13, which is shaped complementarily to the second end 3b of the lever 3, so as to enable the shape mating of the contoured element 11 with the lever 3.
  • the shell 12 has a contoured surface portion, which defines an elastic accommodation seat 14 for the crossmember 6, so as to prevent further rotations of the door A and thus achieving the set objective.
  • the contoured surface portion comprises a substantially non-elastic expansion 15 of the shell 12, which can be inserted (as shown in Figure 4 ) below the crossmember 6 at the second angular position of the lever 3 (and when the door A is partially rotated with respect to the closed configuration).
  • the contoured surface portion of the shell 12 comprises a tab 16, which, together with the expansion 15 which it is placed opposite, delimits the seat 14.
  • the tab 16 is elastically deformable, in order to allow, by elastic forcing, the accommodation in the seat 14 of the second end 3b of the lever 3, and subsequently the extraction.
  • the shell 12 comprises two half-shells 12a, 12b which have a mutually mirror-symmetrical shape (see for example Figure 6 ): each half-shell 12a, 12b thus has a respective half-recess 13a, 13b, for their keying on opposite sides (according to the respective directions for mounting shown schematically in Figure 2 ), on the second end 3b of the lever 3.
  • the shell 12 thus comprises means of mutual fixing of the half-shells 12a, 12b, upon their keying on the second end 3b of the lever 3.
  • the mutual fixing means comprise a pair of screws (or the like), which can be inserted in respective pairs of female screw seats 14a, 14b which are mutually aligned and are provided in each one of the half-shells 12a, 12b.
  • the lever 3 is made of steel, preferably selected of the type of forged steel, while the plate 2 is made of sheet metal, but it should be noted that the possibility is not ruled out of providing the lever 3, the plate 2 (and every other component of the assembly 1 according to the invention) in any material, according to specific requirements, while remaining within the scope of protection claimed herein.
  • assemblies 1 for locking the door A of vehicles B of the type of vans, trucks, lorries, semi-trailer trucks, trailers and the like, is indicated for use on assemblies 1 which comprise at least one base plate 2, which can be coupled rigidly to the chassis C of the vehicle B, proximate to an opening for access to an internal compartment, and a lever 3, which is anchored rigidly to a rod 4 that is supported rotatably by a door A for closing the compartment.
  • the plate 2 and the lever 3 are affected by coupling means (for example the first coupling means 5 mentioned previously), which can be actuated at a first angular position of the lever 3 and when the door A is arranged in the configuration for closing the compartment, in order to lock the door A.
  • coupling means for example the first coupling means 5 mentioned previously
  • the coupling means can thus comprise a first, curved end 3a of the lever 3 which is engaged by interlocking below a crossmember 6, which is supported in a cantilever manner by the plate 2.
  • the engagement element comprises a shell 12, which defines internally a recess 13 which is shaped complementarily to the second end 3b of the lever 3, for shape mating with it, and a contoured surface portion, which defines an elastic accommodation seat 14 for the crossmember 6, at at least one second angular position of the lever 3 and when the door A is partially rotated with respect to the closed configuration, so as to determine the locking of the door in at least one partially open configuration.
  • the lever 3 makes it possible to lock the door, thus ensuring its coupling to the chassis C and guarding against the danger of accidental opening.
  • the lever 3 When in fact the door A is arranged in the closed position, the lever 3 can be laid on the base 2 (thus arranging it substantially in parallel with the base and with the door A, in the above mentioned first angular position) and the first end 3a of the lever 3 can thus be inserted below the crossmember 6, opposing the rotation of the door A and thus preventing access to the compartment (optionally, together with the action of the pawl element 10 coupled to the plate 8).
  • the user wants to gain access to the compartment, he/she can grip the lever 3 (at the opposite end with respect to the first end 3a) and impose a rotation upon it, in order to disengage it from the plate 2 and thus be able to move the door A at will.
  • the user can rotate the lever 3 until it is brought to the second angular position, so that the second end 3b, and the engagement element 11 which is anchored externally to it, are proximate to the plate 2, and more precisely until elastic forcing results in the accommodation of the crossmember 6 in the seat 14.
  • the engagement element 11 (and as a consequence the locking assembly 1) according to the invention can be effectively adopted on existing levers 3 (and plates 2) and/or which are already on the market, in that it is sufficient to conveniently shape the recess 13 of the shell 12 in order to ensure the coupling of the element 11 to the lever 3, without requiring structural modifications of the lever or of the plate 2.
  • the locking assembly and the engagement element according to the invention fully achieve the set aim, in that the ability to anchor the engagement element externally to the second end of the lever associated with the door and to engage it by elastic forcing with the crossmember coupled to the chassis of the vehicle makes it possible to achieve the locking of the door in the partially open configuration, in which the internal compartment of the vehicle is thus placed in communication with the external environment.
  • lever 3 linking it to a button 17 that is elastically pivoted to the plate 2 and is usually arranged in interference with respect to the rotation of the lever 3, and which can be manually actuated in order to release it, so as to give the assembly 1 further assurances against the accidental unlocking of the door A (when this is arranged in a partially open configuration).
  • the materials employed, as well as the dimensions, may be any according to requirements and to the state of the art.
