Türfeststeller der eingangs genannten Art sowie deren Haltergehäuse sind in vielfältigen Ausgestaltungen aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. So ist bspw. aus der DE 20120 271 U1 ein Türfeststeller bekannt, bei dem eine mit Rastnuten versehene Türhaltestange einerseits schwenkbar an einer Fahrzeugkarosserie und andererseits in dem an der Fahrzeugtür befestigten Haltergehäuse verschiebbar angeordnet ist. Beim Verschwenken der Fahrzeugtür gleitet eine mit den Rastnuten ausgestattete Seitenfläche der Türhaltestange auf einem starren Rastnocken der Rasteinheit ab und arretiert so die Fahrzeugtür in vorgegebenen Öffnungspositionen. Auf der den Rastnuten gegenüberliegenden, im Wesentlichen ebenen Seite der Türhaltestange wird diese durch einen federbelasteten Nocken in Richtung auf das Rastelement gedrückt. Vergleichbare Türfeststeller, die zudem ein Haltergehäuse mit identischen Gehäusehälften aufweisen, werden in der DE 103 02 554 A , der EP 1 728 949 A1 und der US 2008/0184525 A1 offenbart.Door retainers of the type mentioned and their holder housing are known in various configurations from the prior art. So is, for example, from the DE 20120 271 U1 a door arrester is known in which a detent provided with door retaining rod on the one hand pivotally mounted on a vehicle body and on the other hand slidably mounted in the bracket attached to the vehicle door housing. When pivoting the vehicle door equipped with the locking grooves side surface of the door retaining rod slides on a rigid locking cam of the locking unit and thus locks the vehicle door in predetermined opening positions. On the latching grooves opposite, substantially flat side of the door retaining bar this is pressed by a spring-loaded cam in the direction of the locking element. Comparable door retainers, which also have a holder housing with identical housing halves, are in the DE 103 02 554 A , of the EP 1 728 949 A1 and the US 2008/0184525 A1 disclosed.

Die Ausgestaltung der Haltergehäuse derartiger Türfeststeller mit einer Durchtrittsöffnung für die Türhaltestange weist den Nachteil auf, dass diese aus einer Vielzahl von Bauteilen hergestellt sind, was insbesondere aufgrund der damit einhergehenden Montagekosten zu hohen Kosten des gesamten Türfeststellers führt.The design of the holder housing such door lock with a passage opening for the door retaining rod has the disadvantage that they are made of a variety of components, which leads in particular to the associated installation costs at high cost of the entire door arrester.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein einfach montierbares Haltergehäuse für einen Türfeststeller und somit einen kostengünstig herstellbaren Türfeststeller bereitzustellen.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a simple mountable holder housing for a door arrester and thus a cost-producible door arrester.

Die Erfindung löst die Aufgabe durch ein Haltergehäuse mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 sowie einen Türfeststeller mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 9. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.The invention solves the problem by a holder housing with the features of claim 1 and a door lock with the features of claim 9. Advantageous developments are indicated in the dependent claims.

Kennzeichnend für das erfindungsgemäße Haltergehäuse mit zwei identischen Gehäusehälften und mit einer Durchtrittsöffnung für eine Türhaltestange ist, dass die Gehäusehälften Kontaktflächen aufweisen, mit denen die Gehäusehälften aneinander anliegen. Das Haltergehäuse lässt sich in besonders einfacher Weise, allein durch die Verwendung von zwei Gehäusehälften bilden, welche nur in einer vorgegebenen Weise zusammengesetzt werden müssen. Auf eine umständliche Ausrichtung unterschiedlicher Bauteile zueinander oder mehrerer Montageschritte zur Bildung des Haltergehäuses kann gemäß der Erfindung verzichtet werden.Characteristic of the holder housing according to the invention with two identical housing halves and with a passage opening for a door retaining bar is that the housing halves have contact surfaces with which the housing halves abut each other.

Dabei sind die Kontaktflächen über Absätze miteinander verbunden, die bei der Montage als Anschlagflächen und Positionierhilfen dienen und eine Ausrichtung der Gehäusehälften zueinander erleichtern. Vorzugsweise weisen die Gehäusehälften mindestens zwei, vorteilhaft drei parallel zueinander versetzt angeordnete Gehäusehälften auf. Besonders vorteilhafterweise ist dabei vorgesehen, dass die Kontaktflächen derart versetzt zueinander angeordnet sind, dass die die Kontaktflächen verbindenden Absätze senkrecht und/oder parallel zur Längsachse der Durchtrittsöffnung verlaufen. Gemäß dieser Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird erreicht, dass zwischen den Gehäusehälften ein Formschluss hergestellt wird. So wird bspw. bei einem senkrecht zur Längsachse der Durchtrittsöffnung verlaufenden Absatz in Längsachsenrichtung der Türhaltestange und somit in deren Bewegungsrichtung eine sichere Positionierung der Gehäusehälften aneinander gewährleistet. Hierdurch wird die Stabilität des aus den beiden Gehäusehälften gebildeten Haltergehäuses in ergänzender Weise gesteigert sowie die Montage erleichtert, nachdem eine besonders einfache und zuverlässige Ausrichtung der Gehäusehälften zueinander möglich ist.According to the invention it is provided that the contact surfaces, ie the surfaces with which the housing halves abut each other, are not arranged only in a plane which is parallel to a plane defined by the longitudinal axis of the passage opening and a pivot axis of the door retaining rod level, but that the housing halves have mutually staggered contact surfaces. In this case, the contact surfaces are connected to each other via shoulders, which serve as stop surfaces and positioning aids during assembly and facilitate alignment of the housing halves to one another.

Aufgrund der im montierten Zustand parallel zueinander versetzt verlaufenden Kontaktflächen 5a, 5b, 5c der Gehäusehälften 4 wird überdies ein Formschluss der Gehäusehälften 4 hergestellt, wobei die rechtwinklig zueinander verlaufenden, die Kontaktflächen 5a, 5b, 5c verbindenden Absätze 8a, 8b einen Formschluss der Gehäusehälften 4 sowohl in Längsachsenrichtung der Durchtrittsöffnung 20 als auch senkrecht zu dieser gewährleisten.The housing halves 4 of the holder housing 3, which are produced by injection molding of a plastic, are of identical construction and have all the functions necessary for operation, so that additional components for forming the holder housing 3 can be dispensed with. To connect the housing halves 4, these integrally formed with the housing halves 4 pin body 9, which are arranged in the assembled state in accordance with trained pen body 10 shots. The connection of the housing halves 4 by thermal riveting or ultrasonic welding of the pin body 9 leads to a dimensionally stable holder housing 3. Due to the parallel in the mounted state mutually offset contact surfaces 5a, 5b, 5c of the housing halves 4, a positive connection of the housing halves 4 is also made, wherein the right angles mutually extending, the contact surfaces 5a, 5b, 5c connecting paragraphs 8a, 8b ensure a positive connection of the housing halves 4 both in the longitudinal axis direction of the passage opening 20 and perpendicular to this.

An den Gehäusehälften 4 ist ferner ein Rastschwingenlager 13 zur schwenkbaren Aufnahme einer Rastschwinge 15 angeordnet, so dass auf weitere Lagermittel verzichtet werden kann. Die Rastschwinge 15 ist durch ein Federelement 14 in Richtung auf die Durchtrittsöffnung 20 vorgespannt, wobei das Federelement 14 einenends an dem Haltergehäuse und anderenends an der Rastschwinge 15 anliegt, so dass diese im montierten Zustand mit einer in der Durchtrittsöffnung 20 angeordneten Türhaltestange 2 mit einem Rastelement 16 an einer der einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten 17a, 17b der Türhaltestange 2, die über einen Bolzen 7 gelenkig an einer hier nicht dargestellten Fahrzeugkarosserie anordbar ist, anliegt und mit Rastnuten 18 in Eingriff bringbar ist.On the housing halves 4, a latching rocker bearing 13 is also arranged for pivotally receiving a latching rocker 15, so that can be dispensed with further storage means. The latching rocker 15 is biased by a spring element 14 in the direction of the passage opening 20, wherein the spring element 14 abuts one end of the holder housing and the other end of the latching rocker 15, so that these in the assembled state with a arranged in the passage opening 20 door retaining bar 2 with a latching element 16 on one of the mutually opposite sides 17a, 17b of the door retaining bar 2, which is articulated via a bolt 7 to a vehicle body, not shown here, abuts and with locking grooves 18 is engageable.

Ferner im Rahmen des spritzgusstechnischen Herstellungsprozesses der Gehäusehälften 4 mit ausgebildet sind eine Einspritzmutter 12 sowie Anschlagpuffer 11, wobei die Einspritzmutter 12 zur Befestigung des Haltergehäuses an einer hier nicht dargestellten Kraftfahrzeugtür und die Anschlagpuffer 11 im Bereich der Endlage des Türfeststellers 1 mit einem Anschlagkörper 19 der Türhaltestange 2 zusammenwirkt.Furthermore, as part of the injection molding manufacturing process of the housing halves 4 are formed with an injection nut 12 and stop buffer 11, wherein the injection nut 12 for attachment of the holder housing to a motor vehicle door not shown here and the stop buffer 11 in the region of the end position of the door arrester 1 with a stop body 19 of the door retaining bar 2 interacts.

Zur Montage des Türfeststellers 1 bzw. des Haltergehäuses 3 sind die identischen Gehäusehälften 4 nach deren Ausrichtung zueinander derart, dass die Stiftkörper 9 gegenüberliegend zu den entsprechenden Stiftkörperaufnahmen 10 angeordnet sind, zusammenzustecken und können anschließend durch thermisches Nieten oder Ultraschallschweißen dauerhaft verbunden werden.To assemble the door arrester 1 and the holder housing 3, the identical housing halves 4 are aligned with one another in such a way that the pin bodies 9 are arranged opposite the corresponding pin body receptacles 10 and can then be permanently connected by thermal riveting or ultrasonic welding.
