Tie-up point for a lid drive in a motor vehicle
View Patent ↗A body-side tie-up point for a drive of a lid for a body aperture of a vehicle. The tie-up point has an inner reinforcing plate which is fastened on the outside to a sealing duct laterally adjacent to the body aperture, and an outer reinforcing plate which is fastened to the inner reinforcing plate on a side facing away from the sealing duct. A strengthening element is provided which bears against the sealing duct and the inner reinforcing plate in a contact zone on a side facing away from the inner reinforcing plate. The outer reinforcing plate directly or indirectly supports the strengthening element in a region spaced apart from the contact zone.

a sealing duct disposed laterally adjacent to the body aperture;
an inner reinforcing plate fastened on an outside of said sealing duct;
an outer reinforcing plate fastened to said inner reinforcing plate on a side facing away from said sealing duct;
a strengthening element penetrating through said sealing duct and said inner reinforcing plate and bearing at a contact zone against a side of said sealing duct which faces away from said inner reinforcing plate; and
said outer reinforcing plate one of directly and indirectly supporting said strengthening element in a region spaced apart from said contact zone.
2. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , further comprising a bush into which said strengthening element is inserted, said bush is fastened to said inner reinforcing plate and to said outer reinforcing plate.
3. The tie-up point according to claim 2 , wherein said strengthening element has a threaded portion with an external thread, said bush has an internal thread complementary to said external thread, said strengthening element being screwed into said bush.
4. The tie-up point according to claim 2 , wherein said bush penetrates through said outer reinforcing plate.
5. The tie-up point according to claim 2 , wherein said bush is closed on one end.
6. The tie-up point according to claim 2 , wherein said bush is welded to said inner reinforcing plate.
7. The tie-up point according to claim 2 , wherein said bush is welded to said outer reinforcing plate.
8. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , wherein said inner reinforcing plate is welded to said sealing duct.
9. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , wherein said outer reinforcing plate is welded to said inner reinforcing plate.
10. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , wherein said sealing duct is configured for receiving a seal which seals the lid with respect to said sealing duct in a closed position of the lid.
11. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , wherein said sealing duct is configured for receiving the drive which extends within said sealing duct in a closed position of the lid.
12. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , wherein said outer reinforcing plate is supported on said inner reinforcing plate peripherally with respect to said strengthening element.
13. The tie-up point according to claim 1 , wherein said inner reinforcing plate is shaped, on a side facing said sealing duct, complementarily to a side of said sealing duct which faces said inner reinforcing plate, and bears against said sealing duct over a given area.
14. The tie-up point according to claim 6 , wherein said bush is projection-welded to said inner reinforcing plate.
15. The tie-up point according to claim 7 , wherein said bush is MAG-welded to said outer reinforcing plate.
16. The tie-up point according to claim 8 , wherein said inner reinforcing plate is spot-welded to said sealing duct.
17. The tie-up point according to claim 9 , wherein said outer reinforcing plate is spot-welded to said inner reinforcing plate.
18. A vehicle, comprising:
a body having at least one body aperture formed therein;
at least one lid for closing said body aperture;
at least one drive for driving said lid;
a body-side tie-up point for supporting said drive on said body, said body-side tie-up point containing:
a sealing duct disposed laterally adjacent of said body aperture;
an inner reinforcing plate fastened on an outside to said sealing duct;
an outer reinforcing plate fastened to said inner reinforcing plate on a side facing away from said sealing duct;
a strengthening element penetrating through said sealing duct and said inner reinforcing plate and bearing at a contact zone against a side of said sealing duct which faces away from said inner reinforcing plate; and
said outer reinforcing plate one of directly and indirectly supporting said strengthening element in a region spaced apart from said contact zone.
