Control mechanism for lock pawl

A car seat lock, comprising an electric motor mounted in a housing that is connected with a seat backrest, the electric motor having an output shaft with a worm gear, the worm gear engaging with a spur gearing of a transmission gear, the transmission gear being mounted rotatably on a transmission pivot, the transmission gear having on a frontal surface an eccentric selector pivot arranged eccentrically for controlling a pawl of the car seat lock, the pawl mounted on a pawl pivot for swinging between a blocking position, in which the pawl blocks a rotary ratchet of the car seat lock from releasing a catch eye connected with car bodywork, and an unlocking position, in which the pawl releases the rotary ratchet to release the catch eye, the pawl having a radial selector arm, the radial selector arm in the blocking position of the pawl interfering with a circular trajectory of the eccentric selector pivot for engagement of the eccentric selector pivot with the radial selector arm, the pawl having a radial control arm, the radial control arm angled against the radial selector arm and interfering in the unlocking position of the pawl with the circular trajectory of the eccentric selector pivot to block movement of the selector pivot, the pawl comprising a selector sleeve with a selector arm and a control sleeve with a control arm, both the selector sleeve and the control sleeve being mounted rotatably side by side on the pawl pivot and linked together with a link torsion spring, wherein an angular distance between the control sleeve and the selector sleeve is adjustable.

A car seat lock comprising an electric motor mounted in a housing that is connected with a seat backrest and having an output shaft with a worm gear engaging with a circumferential gearing of a transmission gear rotary-mounted on a transmission pivot, the transmission gear having on a frontal surface a selector pivot activating a pawl, swing-mounted on a pawl pivot between a blocking position, in which the pawl blocks a rotary ratchet from releasing a catch eye connected with car bodywork, and an unlocking position in which the pawl releases the rotary ratchet to release the catch eye, wherein the pawl has a radial arm and a blocking arm, the radial arm in the blocking position of the pawl interfering with a circular trajectory of the selector pivot to allow engagement with the selector pivot, and the blocking arm in the unlocking position of the pawl interfering with a circular trajectory of the selector pivot to block the movement of the selector pivot, wherein the blocking arm has a blocking protrusion protruding in a tangential direction from the blocking arm and has a stop area blocking movement of the selector pivot, and where the pawl comprises a selector sleeve with a selector arm and a control sleeve with a control arm, both the selector sleeve and the control sleeve being mounted rotatably side by side on the pawl pivot and linked together with a link torsion spring.

A car seat lock, comprising an electric motor mounted in a housing that is connected with a seat backrest, the electric motor having an output shaft with a worm gear, the worm gear engaging with a spur gearing of a transmission gear, the transmission gear being rotatably mounted on a transmission pivot, the transmission gear having on a frontal surface an eccentric selector pivot for controlling a pawl of the car seat lock, the pawl mounted on a pawl pivot for swinging between a blocking position, in which the pawl blocks a rotary ratchet of the car seat lock from releasing a catch eye connected with a car bodywork, and an unlocking position, in which the pawl releases the rotary ratchet to release the catch eye,

• the pawl having a radial selector arm, the radial selector arm in the blocking position of the pawl interfering with a circular trajectory of the eccentric selector pivot for engagement of the eccentric selector pivot with the radial selector arm,
• the pawl having further a radial control arm, the radial control arm angled against the radial selector arm and interfering in the unlocking position of the pawl with the circular trajectory of the eccentric selector pivot to block movement of the selector pivot, and
• a blocking arm is rotatively mounted in the housing, the blocking arm having an end, the end being fastened in a stop area of the radial control arm to prevent the return of the pawl from the unlocking position into the blocking position after the ratchet is tilted for releasing the catch eye, and
• the blocking arm is disengaged by the ratchet from the stop area of the radial control arm for releasing the pawl into the blocking position.
