    TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates generally to curtain rods for vehicles and in particular to guide rods for controlling a crash curtain which is activated and biased upwards. The control rod according to the invention must allow a simplified and fast assembly and can be mounted in tight spaces (adjacent interior details require normal assembly. The invention is especially intended for use in commercial and / or heavy vehicles such as in trucks, buses, etc. The function of the handlebar in particular is to support the front edge of the curtain, seen in the direction of the vehicle.The invention can of course be used for other types of vehicles or in other applications where curtain curtains are used as protection for drivers or passengers in the event of an accident. which a curtain and / or guide rod according to the invention is used.
    BACKGROUND OF THE TECHNOLOGY In most modern passenger cars today, curtain blinds are used as personal protection in the event of an accident, such as in the event of collisions, election accidents or the like. The curtain is usually mounted rolled up at or under the roof panel above the vehicle's side doors and, after activation / inflation, normally covers the entire upper part of the inside of the door or side window, from the front windscreen and arida at the rear to the rear window or luggage compartment. In passenger cars, the front edge or the spirit of the crash curtain is usually mounted a bit down in the car's A-pillar, which is the pillar closest to the windscreen. The A-pillar has such a slope that the crash curtain is usually held in place during the development process without other aids, equipment or control devices.
    On heavy commercial vehicles, curtain curtains have not yet been used for various purposes. But since even heavy commercial vehicles are exposed to accidents, and not least for road accidents, where the driver can be thought to hit the inside or side window of the door, there is reason to now introduce this personal protection even for larger / heavier vehicles.
    In passenger cars, the A-pillar is thus designed with a star open angle in relation to the light side beam, which makes it possible to mount the front part of the curtain of fabric curtain in the actual A-pillar and so that it extends longitudinally with the roof and side beam baked to the next pillar, the sk The B-pillar.
    This means that there are attachment points in the A-pillar that hold the curtain in place during activation / inflation.
    In a heavier truck-type vehicle, the ratio is different and the angle between the cab's A-pillar and the side beam is different enough, ie change 90 degrees, which is why it is black or impossible to implement the same reading for mounting as in a car. The curtain should not have anything that guides it down in a red way and that holds it in place, e.g. in the event of a traffic accident and thus, it can certainly not fulfill its function as a complete personal protection. In order to achieve a vertical control of the curtain in the vertical direction, a solution with two rigid guide struts is required, for example made of steel, which is mounted in the front and rear edge of the curtain and which guides the curtain downwards in the right direction when it is biased up and unfolded and hailed. the curtain in place.
    However, this gives some assembly problems in heavier vehicles because vehicle cabins have a more extensive interior which, moreover, is not easily adapted to the buyer's wishes. For this reason, the interior can look different between different vehicles, even though it is the same basic model. The interior details can be in the carriage for the installation of a crash curtain and its guide rods. An interior detail that can prevent or justify the installation of guide posts Or e.g. a shelf that is placed over the vehicle's windscreen.
    It is also undesirable for the assembly to be carried out in an aesthetically pleasing manner. For example. viii you can easily hide both mounting points and the guide rods themselves behind interior details and trim panels, which creates further problems during installation and makes it difficult for the fitters to come up with tools to e.g. screw to different screw connections.
    A basic need is therefore that the assembly of the curtain and its guide rods should be facilitated and that the mounting of the guide rods should be simple in their construction.
    The problem is to design a type of guide for side-mounted curtain airbags that does not need to be fitted with traditional screw connections, at least not up to date. Such a solution would entail ergonomic advantages during assembly and speed up assembly, thereby creating cost advantages during manufacture.
    The handlebars are usually hidden behind trim panels in the cab and the space for the front handlebar is limited by the truck's entry handle. Each steering column has two attachment points, one at the top which is located in or change the side beam of the cab and one at the bottom which is located near the entry handle. Access to the byre point of entry, located at or above the A-pillar, is usually limited by a roof shelf which by various shells must be mounted in front of the curtain and p.g.a. the roof shelf becomes very narrow and it is not possible to fasten a screw.
    A number of different solutions for control curtains for curtain curtains are already known.
    For example, patent publication WO03037677 discloses a side airbag which is guided by means of guide supports arranged in the front and rear edge of the curtain. The steering rods are equipped with a mounting hall in both parts and are mounted in the vehicle's body / frame preferably by means of screw connections.
    Patent publication DE430717 discloses a variant of a side airbag and its guide rods. It is also shown here how control struts can be arranged in the front and rear edge of the curtain. How the steering rods are mounted in the vehicle body / frame is not shown further.
    The patent publication EP1510416 shows a further variant of a side airbag and its mounting. At least one control rod, hidden behind a panel, is used to control the curtain at one end thereof, preferably at its rear edge. The steering column is equipped with mounting brackets at the top and bottom and is mounted in the vehicle body / frame preferably with the help of screw connections.
    Kdnd technology does not show any curtain with guide struts that can be mounted in really tight spaces and without the use of screws.
    There is a need for a new and improved construction that allows easy installation of curtain and guide rods and where the guide rods are compact and take up as little space as possible and with a design so that they can easily be mounted even in narrow spaces.
    SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and to provide a guide rod for a crash curtain which makes it possible to mount the guide rod in narrow spaces and which at the same time facilitates and speeds up the assembly.
    A further damper part of the invention is that the control rod should be able to be hooked in a first and kept in the first place temporarily without further aids such as e.g. a screw connection.
    A further damper part with the invention is that the guide rod should be able to be inserted against the foot from the side and hooked in place.
    A further damper part of the invention is that the guide rod should be able to be loaded in the front with the aid of a bayonet socket.
    A further damper part of the invention is that the guide rod should be able to be mounted in a more ergonomic way for the fitter and which offers a so-called "third hand solution".
    A further object of the invention is that the steering column and its head must be so stable that they can handle all load cases that may occur in the event of an accident.
    A further aspect of the invention is that the mounting of the handlebar in its adjacent point of attachment is substantially concealed after the final assembly and during use of the vehicle and gives an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
    A further object of the invention is that the guide rod should be as simple as possible for its construction and clamed to be cost-effective to manufacture.
    A further object of the invention is that the guide rod and its attachments should be concealed.
    These and further features and advantages are obtained according to the invention with a guide rod which has the features set forth in the characterizing part of claim 1.
    The invention thus generally relates to a crash curtain for vehicles and in particular to the design of the crash curtain guide rod and its first way that the assembly is simplified and accelerated and can take place without problems even in narrow spaces. The invention is achieved by designing the guide rod so that it can be hooked into a special recess in the vehicle body and then the recess and the guide rod Or sd designed that the connection is also stored in the mechanical openings that can occur in the event of an accident. In order to further secure the connection, the recess in the cab frame can be designed as a suspended hall, which can serve as a bayonet socket for the outer part of the handlebar. The guide rod is then designed with one or more disposable flaps which are pressed into the recess, after which the guide rod is rotated so that a charge arises. Then a screw connection or the like is mounted in the lower end portion of the guide rod. Due to the construction according to the invention, the disadvantages of prior art are eliminated and a much more easily mounted guide rod is obtained. The mounting concept makes it possible to mount a crash curtain and its guide rods. For example, if a roof shelf or similar has already been mounted in the vehicle. The invention furthermore comprises a so-called third-hand solution for the fitter as the guide rod is retained in place by itself as soon as it is hooked into the recess.
    The invention can of course also be used in other types of vehicles or in other applications where control of a crash curtain is necessary and where the space for mounting a control rod Or is limited.
    The invention also relates to a vehicle in which a steering rod with a fastener as above is used.
    The construction according to the invention eliminates the disadvantages of prior art and a more spiritually appropriate, functional and above all easily mounted guide rod is obtained.
    Further features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following, more detailed description of the invention, and from the accompanying drawings and other claims.
    BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The invention is described in more detail below in some preferred embodiments, with reference to the accompanying drawing figures.

    Figure shows the same view as figure 10 but with a handlebar equipped with a corresponding wing-shaped bayonet socket mounted.
    DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The invention thus relates generally to a crash curtain 1 for vehicles and in particular to the design of the crash curtain guide rod 2 and its upper fixed 3 so that the assembly is simplified, accelerated and can take place in really tight spaces.
    Figure 1 shows a part of a cab frame in a heavy vehicle 4 from the inside and how a rolled up curtain 1 Or mounted in the cab frame Over one, left, trembling (not shown) and how a roof shelf 5 at least partially blocks access to the lower fixed point 3, arranged in the vehicle's A-pillar 6. A rear guide rod 7 is also arranged at the vehicle's B-pillar 8 with a corresponding fixed point 3. The guide rods 2,7 are intended to guide the crash curtain 1 when it is activated and biased up (developed crash curtain is indicated by 9) in the event of an accident said that it takes a correct position and can protect the driver. The guide rods 2.7 are mounted at their lower duck portions with the help of screw connections. The rear handlebar 7 may be slightly longer and the front handlebar 2 is limited at the bottom by the cab entry handle 10. Through the handlebars 2.7 the developed curtain curtain 9 remains in the intended place inside the side window to prevent the driver from hitting the window or being thrown out through the window.
    Figure 2 shows in more detail an lower fastening 3a in the form of a recess 11 designed as a keyhole and arranged at the Astolpen (or B-post) 6 in the vehicle. The circular adhesive part of the recess 11 allows the guide rod 2 to hook into the recess 11, after which the guide rod 2 is pressed downwards by the fitters so that the guide rod 2 is read laterally. A pressing of the cabin frame plate around the recess 11 strengthens the fastening 3a.
    Figure 3 shows in more detail a first embodiment of the guide rod 3b of the guide rod 2. The guide rod 2 has a bend at the top which results in the lyre spirit of the guide rod 2 being substantially at a 90 degree angle to the main part of the guide rod 2. Two flanges 12a, b are arranged forming a gap 13 therebetween.
    Figure 4 shows in more detail the guide rod 2 according to figure 3 hooked and depressed and thus anchored in the key neck-shaped recess 11. The guide rod 2 can only be moved upwards in this layer which is prevented in the final mounted layer by a screw connection arranged in its second lower spirit (not shown) .
    Figure shows in more detail an alternative design of the fastening 3 where an elongate recess 14 in the cab body is arranged obliquely. Precisely that the recess 14 is elongate, it is possible to provide a bayonet socket which makes the guide rod 2 attachable to the fastening 14, provided that the fixed fixed point of the guide rod 2 is also formed with a corresponding elongate element or flange.
    Figure 6 shows in more detail a solution where the guide rod 2 itself is provided with a higher two-part elongated flange 15. The loading is achieved by fitting the flange 15 of the guide rod 2 into the recess 14 by turning the guide rod 2 slightly, part of a vary, to a layer where the flange 15 can be pushed into, fits into the recess 14 and then rotates back to a length where the guide rod 2 hangs substantially vertically and is loaded in the recess 14.
    Figure 7 shows in more detail an alternative embodiment of a recess 16, has a substantially but slightly deformed T-shaped hl, which enables a welding function with bayonet socket but where the recess 16 also ensures that the exact final length of the guide rod 2 can be determined by shifted down into the groove 16b (see Figure 7).
    Figure 8 shows the same view as figure 7 but with a guide rod 2 provided with a corresponding bayonet socket mounted. The elongate flange 17 of the guide rod 2 is clearly visible after mounting.
    Figure 9 shows in more detail an alternative embodiment of a recess 18, with an additional substantially T-shaped hal. Baffles 19, 20 or bulges are provided in the plate to change the recess 18 and help to fix and hold the guide rod 2 in place when it is rotated, in order to avoid play and that the guide rod 2 should slip out of its fastening 3 during the assembly phase.
    Figure shows the same view as figure 9 but with a guide rod 2 provided with corresponding wing-shaped or propeller-shaped flaps 21a, b mounted to achieve a bayonet socket. The inner and outer flaps 21a, b are slightly offset mounted at the end of the guide rod 2 to achieve an optimal loading and 11 lighter mounting. The outer flange 21b is slightly smaller than the inner flange 21a, and the inner flange 21a is thus slightly larger than the recess 18, so that the outer flange 21b can fit into the recess 18 but so as not to bathe the flanges 21a, b by mistake. pushed into the recess 18 during assembly. At least one flange, e.g. the inner flange 21a, or somewhat resiliently designed so that the fastener 3 is put into mechanical tension when the guide rod 2 is rotated in place and the inner flange 21a is pressed against the bolts 19,20. The above description is primarily intended to facilitate the understanding of the invention. The invention is, of course, not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, but other variants of the invention are possible and conceivable terms within the scope of the inventive concept and the scope of protection of the appended claims. For example, the design of the fastener 3 can be made inverted, ie a flange (not shown) can be mounted in, and protrude from, the cab body and a corresponding recess can be formed in the guide rod 2 itself, preferably in its outer part. A control rod according to the invention can of course also be used and mounted in the various posts of the vehicle. 12
