ABSTRACT:
Swivel-sliding door system for a vehicle, having a door leaf situated in the vehicle wall in the closed state, and situated on the outside in front of the vehicle wall in the open state, and having drive means, transverse guide means and longitudinal guide means which make possible a swivel-sliding movement of the door leaf. The longitudinal guide means comprise a bearing rail which extends over the width of the door opening and which is coupled to drive members which can cause the bearing wheel to execute a movement transversely to the vehicle wall (3). The bearing rail is provided with a first set of rollers (62,63) which run in the bearing rail and which are mounted on a coupling member (65) which is provided with a second set of rollers (66,67) which are situated in a lower position and which interact with a door rail (6) attached to the top of a door leaf (1,2).
However, the drive means comprise a drive lever driven by the housing of a motor and lead screws which are driven by the spindle of the motor and which support nut members coupled to the door leaves.
The motor is mounted on a mounting plate whose bottom supports, moreover, a guide rail and roller guide members. The roller guide members interact with roller supports which are linked to the bearing rail and which are actuated by the drive lever. The spindle of the drive lever also actuates a lowermost swivel arm, coupled to the door leaf, via a vertical rod.
