Fitting for motor-vehicle interior
The invention relates to a fitting ( 10 ) for a vehicle interior comprising a base ( 11 ) and comprising a pivotable part ( 12 ) that is pivotable relative to the base about a pivot axis (a) between a first position and a second position, comprising a brake ( 20 ) with a first sliding structure ( 23 ) on the base ( 11 ) having at least one first slide surface ( 21 ) and a second sliding structure ( 25 ) on the arm support ( 12 ) having at least one second slide surface ( 22 ), wherein the second slide surface ( 22 ) is motion-connected to the arm support ( 12 ). The particular feature is that the first slide surface ( 21 ) and/or the second slide surface ( 22 ) is formed at least partially as a ramp ( 24 ).
1. A fitting for a vehicle interior, the fitting comprising:
a base;
a part pivotable relative to the base about a pivot axis between an upper position and a lower position;
a first sliding structure on the base and having a first slide surface;
a second sliding structure on the part and having a second slide surface coupled to the part, one of the slide surfaces being formed with a projection and also being configured at least partially as a ramp;
another projection on the other of the slide surfaces; and
a spring urging the other projection of the other slide surface against the one slide surface or ramp, the other projection riding on the ramp and braking movement of the part on movement from the upper position to the lower position such that in a region of movement of the part, the projections are in direct engagement.
2. The fitting according to claim 1 , wherein the one slide surface forms a sliding track on which rides the projection of the other sliding structure during movement of the pivotable part between the upper position and the lower position.
3. The fitting according to claim 1 , wherein, in a region of movement of the part, the projection of the first slide surface and the ramp of the one slide surface are in direct engagement.
4. The fitting according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a controller for controlling a normal force acting between the slide surfaces and comprising at least one axially displaceable first control structure rotationally connected to the part having at least one first control surface and a second control structure that is rotationally fixed relative to the base having at least one second control surface that cooperates with the first control surface.
5. The fitting according to claim 4 , wherein the first slide surface at least partially forms the second control surface and the second slide surface at least partially forms the first control surface.
6. The fitting according to claim 4 , wherein the first control structure or the second control structure is on a control member for adjusting deflection of the spring.
7. The fitting according to claim 6 , wherein the control member is formed by the pivotable part.
8. The fitting according to claim 1 , wherein the slide surfaces are coaxial with the pivot axis.
9. The fitting according to claim 1 , wherein the fitting forms an armrest and the part is an arm support pivotable between an upright position and a horizontal position.
10. A fitting for a vehicle interior, the fitting comprising:
a base;
a part pivotable relative to the base about a pivot axis between an upper position and a lower position;
a first sliding structure on the base and having a first slide surface;
a second sliding structure on the part and having a second slide surface coupled to the part, one of the slide surfaces being configured at least partially as a ramp;
a projection on the other of the slide surfaces; and
a spring urging the projection of the other slide surface against the one slide surface or ramp, the projection riding on the ramp and braking movement of the part on movement from the upper position to the lower position such that in a region of movement of the part, the projection of the other slide surface and at least one zero level of the one slide surface are in direct engagement.
