Publication number: 20080084074Abstract: Disclosed is an exterior door handle (1) for a motor vehicle, comprising an electromechanical locking system (2) and a manually actuated handle part (3) that can perform a lifting movement in order to open a door (11) lock (8). The lifting movement of the handle part (3) is subdivided, a device (9) generating an increased actuation resistance and a switch (20) electrically opening the door lock (8) at the end of a first lifting distance (21). The handle part (3) can travel an additional lifting distance (23) beyond the first lifting distance (21) in case the electric power supply is interrupted or the electric locking system (2) breaks down, said additional lifting distance (23) mechanically opening the door lock (8).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2005Publication date: April 10, 2008Inventors: Stefan Monig, Dirk Muller, Manfred Rohlfing

Publication number: 20080028885Abstract: The invention relates to a device for operating locks (16) on doors or hatches of vehicles. A fixed support (10) is a arranged on the door. A moving unit (20) is mounted (11, 12), such as to pivot on the support (10), belonging to which is at least one handle (21). Spring loading (25, 26) ensures the unoperated moving unit (20) is held in a flat rest position on the support (10). On operating the handle, the moving unit (20) must be pivoted against said spring loading, whereby the lock (16) is operated. A damping unit (30) ensures that the returning moving unit (20) pivoting action is decelerated. According to the invention, a reliable, economical damping unit (30) is obtained, whereby an elastic body (31) is arranged in at least one position on the moving unit (20) which extends outwards with a projection (32). On the return movement (39) into the rest position the extending projection (32) is deformed against a fixed counter-surface (40), whereupon the movement energy is largely dissipated.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2005Publication date: February 7, 2008Applicant: HUF HUELSBECK & FUERST GMBH & CO.

Publication number: 20060277954Abstract: An actuating device for a door or hatch of a vehicle includes a carrier for moving a slide between a locking position and a release position for locking a turret to be inserted into an opening of the carrier in a desired inserted position. The slide is provided on its front side in the pull-out direction with a lobe which includes a radially outer surface pointing away from the inserted turret. The turret has an opposing lobe facing the insertion direction, wherein the opposing lobe is arranged at a radial distance from the adjacent circumferential zone of the turret and includes a radially inner surface facing the turret. When the turret is moved into the locking position, the lobe travels into a radial distance from the slide and is moved behind the opposing lobe where the lobe rests with its radially outer surface on the radially inner surface of the opposing lobe.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2004Publication date: December 14, 2006Inventors: Mensur Velicanin, Stefan Monig

Publication number: 20050029868Abstract: The invention relates to a handle comprising a stationary handle part (10, 20) located in a recess in the outer surface of the door (40) and a movable handle part serving as actuating element (30) that is mounted therein. In order to improve operating comfort, an electrode of a capacitor is arranged in the area of the handle part, said electrode generating an electrical field. An electronic device monitors the electrical field. When the hand of a human being approaches the actuating element (30), the electronic device is actuated and carries out a given function in the motor vehicle, e.g. it unlocks the door-lock. In order to ensure universal application of said handle, the electrode of the capacitor is integrated into an additional housing (16), which is arranged, if necessary, on the surface of the handle parts (10). By mounting or removing said additional housing (16), the handle can be converted into a luxury configuration with surveillance or a standard configuration without surveillance.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2002Publication date: February 10, 2005Inventors: Stefan Monig, Martin Witte

Publication number: 20030122385Abstract: A door fitting has the grip (15) on one side and the support (25) on the other of the opposing sides (34, 36) of the external skin (35) of a door. The support has the bearing axle (40). The arms (11, 12) of the grip are threaded through two openings (37, 38) in the outer skin (35) of the door and connected to the bearing arms (21, 22) by means of couplings (41, 51) and the fit secured by means of a screw. According to the invention, in order to be able to use the fitting with any shapes of door, the interconnection of the couplings (41, 51) between the grip and the bearing arms (11, 12; 21, 22) occurs at both ends in one and the same coupling plane, which runs essentially perpendicular to the plane (35) of the door. The one type of couplings are thrust members (41), which on gripping permit a rotation (46) of the grip (15) in the coupling plane, about a rotation axis (45), running essentially perpendicular to the coupling plane.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2002Publication date: July 3, 2003Inventor: Stefan Monig
