- the lever wire holds at its end facing away from the carrier a float following the fuel level.
- the carrier usually has an angling as storage in the carrier and further bends, which allow unhindered pivoting of the lever wire in the most twisted fuel tanks.

Description
Verfahren und Vorrichtung zur Herstellung eines gebogenen Hebeldrahtes. Vorrichtungen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 6 sind z.B. aus der
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Hebeldrahtes eines zur Anordnung in einem Kraftstoffbehälters eines Kraftfahrzeuges vorgesehenen Füllstandssensors durch einen Drahtvorschub bis zu einem zuvor eingegebenen Sollwert und einem anschließenden Biegevorgang des Drahtes um einen vorgesehenen Winkel. Weiterhin betrifft die Erfindung eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung eines gebogenen Hebeldrahtes eines zur Anordnung in einem Kraftstoffbehälter eines Kraftfahrzeuges vorgesehenen Füllstandssensors mit einer Vorschubeinrichtung und mit einer Biegeeinrichtung.The invention relates to a method for producing a lever wire of a provided for arrangement in a fuel tank of a motor vehicle level sensor by a wire feed to a previously entered setpoint and a subsequent bending operation of the wire by a predetermined angle. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for producing a bent lever wire of a provided for arrangement in a fuel tank of a motor vehicle level sensor with a feed device and with a bending device.
Füllstandssensoren zur Erfassung eines Füllstandes an Kraftstoff in heutigen Kraftstoffbehältern weisen in der Regel einen an einem Träger angeordneten Potentiometer auf, welcher den Neigungswinkel eines in dem Träger gelagerten Hebeldrahtes erfasst. Der Hebeldraht hält an seinem dem Träger abgewandten Ende einen dem Kraftstoffspiegel folgenden Schwimmer. Dabei weist der Träger meist eine Abwinklung als Lagerung in dem Träger und weitere Biegungen auf, welche ein ungehindertes Verschwenken des Hebeldrahtes in den meist verwinkelten Kraftstoffbehältern ermöglichen.Level sensors for detecting a level of fuel in today's fuel tanks usually have a arranged on a support potentiometer, which detects the inclination angle of a lever wire mounted in the carrier. The lever wire holds at its end facing away from the carrier a float following the fuel level. In this case, the carrier usually has an angling as storage in the carrier and further bends, which allow unhindered pivoting of the lever wire in the most twisted fuel tanks.
Bei dem aus der Praxis bekannten Verfahren zur Herstellung von Hebeldrähten für Füllstandssensoren werden zunächst sämtliche Biegungen im Hebeldraht erzeugt. Hierbei addieren sich die Toleranzen der einzelnen Arbeitsgänge zu einer sehr großen Abweichung der Positionen der Drahtenden zueinander. In einem aufwändigen Nachkalibrierungsarbeitsgang erfolgt ein Nachbiegen des Hebeldrahtes von Hand. Hierdurch gestaltet sich die Fertigung des Hebeldrahtes jedoch sehr aufwändig und kostspielig.In the method known from practice for the production of lever wires for level sensors, all bends are initially generated in the lever wire. Here, the tolerances of the individual operations add up to a very large deviation of the positions of the wire ends to each other. In a complex recalibration operation, the lever wire is bent by hand. As a result, however, the manufacture of the lever wire is very complicated and costly.
Der Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art so weiterzubilden, dass eine Nachkalibrierung des Hebeldrahtes vermieden wird. Weiterhin soll eine Vorrichtung zur möglichst einfachen und genauen Fertigung des Hebeldrahtes geschaffen werden.The invention is based on the problem, a method of the type mentioned in such a way that a recalibration of the lever wire is avoided. Furthermore, a device for the simplest and most accurate manufacture of the lever wire to be created.
Das erstgenannte Problem wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst.The first problem is solved according to the invention by a method according to
Durch diese Gestaltung wird vorzugsweise nach jedem einzelnen Biegevorgang oder bereits vor dem Biegevorgang nach dem Drahtvorschub der Istwert ermittelt und mit dem vorgesehenen Sollwert verglichen. Damit kann frühzeitig eine mögliche Abweichung in der Biegung des Hebeldrahtes erfasst und gegebenenfalls korrigiert werden. Hierdurch gestaltet sich die Fertigung des Hebeldrahtes besonders einfach und wirtschaftlich. Eine aufwändige Nachkalibrierung lässt sich hierdurch vermeiden.By this design, the actual value is preferably determined after each individual bending operation or even before the bending process after the wire feed and compared with the intended target value. This allows early detection of a possible deviation in the bending of the lever wire and, if necessary, corrected. As a result, the manufacture of the lever wire is particularly simple and economical. A complex recalibration can be avoided thereby.
Die Erfassung des Messwertes erfordert gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung einen besonders geringen Aufwand, wenn der Messwert optisch ermittelt wird.The detection of the measured value requires according to an advantageous development of the invention, a particularly low cost when the measured value is optically determined.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ermöglicht die Herstellung eines mehrfach gebogenen Hebeldrahtes, wenn nach einem erfolgten ersten Biegevorgang ein weiterer Drahtvorschub und ein weiterer Biegevorgang erfolgen.The method according to the invention makes it possible to produce a multiply bent lever wire if, after a first bending operation has taken place, a further wire feed and a further bending operation take place.
Der Messwert könnte beispielsweise nach jedem Biegevorgang an einer neuen Stelle am Hebeldraht ermittelt werden. Jedoch lässt sich die Gesamttoleranz zwischen den beiden Enden des Hebeldrahtes gemäß der Erfindung besonders gering halten, wenn der Messwert jeweils an dem freien Ende des Hebeldrahtes ermittelt wird.The measured value could, for example, be determined after each bending process at a new location on the lever wire. However, the total tolerance between the two ends of the lever wire according to the invention can be kept particularly low if the measured value is determined in each case at the free end of the lever wire.
Bei mehreren, aufeinander folgenden Biegevorgängen könnte beispielsweise bei einer Abweichung im ersten Biegevorgang die Abweichung im zweiten Biegevorgang ausgeglichen werden. Der Hebeldraht weist jedoch gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung eine besonders hohe Formgenauigkeit auf, wenn nach einer Feststellung einer Abweichung über einer vorgesehenen Toleranz im Soll/Istwertvergleich ein erneuter Biegevorgang oder ein erneuter Drahtvorschub erfolgt. Durch diese Gestaltung wird jede einzelne Biegung bei einer festgestellten Abweichung korrigiert. Hierdurch werden Einzeltoleranzen in den Biegungen des Hebeldrahtes ausgeglichen, so dass eine enge Gesamttoleranz des fertig gebogenen Hebeldrahtes eingehalten werden kann.In the case of a plurality of successive bending processes, for example, in the case of a deviation in the first bending process, the deviation in the second bending process could be compensated. However, the lever wire according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention has a particularly high dimensional accuracy, if after a determination of a deviation above a predetermined tolerance in the setpoint / actual value comparison, a renewed bending process or a renewed wire feed takes place. This design corrects each individual bend for a detected deviation. As a result, individual tolerances are compensated in the bends of the lever wire, so that a tight overall tolerance of the finished bent lever wire can be maintained.
Die Toleranzen des Hebeldrahtes hängen sehr stark von dessen Materialeigenschaften oder der beim Biegen herrschenden Temperatur ab. Nach einem Wechsel des Materials oder einer Änderung der Temperatur lässt sich zumindest der zweite Hebeldraht mit einer besonders geringen Anzahl an Korrekturen fertigen, wenn aus dem Sollwert und der im Soll/Istwertvergleich ermittelten Abweichung ein Korrekturwert für den Biegevorgang ermittelt und für den Biegevorgang des folgenden Hebeldrahtes abgespeichert wird.The tolerances of the lever wire depend very much on its material properties or the temperature prevailing during bending. After changing the material or changing the temperature, at least the second lever wire can be finished with a particularly small number of corrections if a correction value for the bending process is determined from the desired value and the deviation determined in the desired / actual value comparison and for the bending process of the following lever wire is stored.
Das zweitgenannte Problem, nämlich die Schaffung einer Vorrichtung zur möglichst einfachen Fertigung des Hebeldrahtes wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 6 gelöst.The second-mentioned problem, namely the creation of a device for the simplest possible manufacture of the lever wire is achieved by a device having the features of
Durch diese Gestaltung lässt sich jeder Biegevorgang bei der Fertigung des Hebeldrahtes erfassen und damit frühzeitig die Biegeeinrichtung und/oder die Vorschubeinrichtung so einstellen, dass der Hebeldraht wie vorgesehen gebogen wird. Damit lässt sich eine besonders enge Gesamttoleranz des Hebeldrahtes nach der Fertigung erreichen. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ermöglicht daher eine besonders einfache Fertigung des Hebeldrahtes.By this design, each bending process can be detected in the manufacture of the lever wire and thus early adjust the bending device and / or the feed device so that the lever wire is bent as intended. This allows a particularly close overall tolerance of the lever wire reach after production. The device according to the invention therefore enables a particularly simple production of the lever wire.
Nach der Eingabe der vorgesehenen Sollwerte der Biegungen lassen sich Toleranzen der Biegungen einfach ausgleichen, wenn die Recheneinrichtung zur Berechnung eines Korrekturwertes zum Ansteuern der Vorschubeinrichtung und/oder der Biegeeinrichtung ausgebildet ist.After entering the intended setpoint values of the bends, tolerances of the bends can be easily compensated if the computing device is designed to calculate a correction value for actuating the feed device and / or the bending device.
Der Messpunkt lässt sich gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung mit besonders geringem baulichen Aufwand erfassen, wenn die Überwachungseinrichtung zumindest ein in vorgesehenen Raumachsen längsverschiebliches, visuelles Erfassungsgerät aufweist. Bei einer räumlichen Biegung des Hebeldrahtes werden vorzugsweise jeweils ein Erfassungsgerät auf den drei Raumachsen eingesetzt. Alternativ dazu kann auch ein einziges Erfassungsgerät in den vorgesehenen Raumachsen zur Erfassung des Messpunktes verfahrbar sein.According to an advantageous development of the invention, the measuring point can be detected with particularly low constructional outlay if the monitoring device has at least one visual detection device which is longitudinally displaceable in provided spatial axes. In the case of a spatial bending of the lever wire, preferably one detection device each is used on the three spatial axes. Alternatively, a single detection device in the space axes provided for detecting the measuring point can be moved.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung gestaltet sich gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung konstruktiv besonders einfach, wenn das Erfassungsgerät oder die Erfassungsgeräte als Kamera ausgebildet ist/sind.The inventive device designed according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention structurally particularly simple when the detection device or the detection devices is designed as a camera / are.
