Abstract

A webbing retracting device that may prevent entering of an end-lock state when a spool rotates in the pull out direction on rebound just after completion of taking up of the webbing belt. A restriction weight is provided on a V gear. The restriction weight moves in the pull out direction relative to the V gear by acceleration when the V gear is rotated in the take up direction, and furthermore, the restriction weight pivots about a support pin under centrifugal force due to rotation of the V gear and attains a contact position. In such a state, even if the inertial mass attempts to displace toward the lock activation direction, the restriction weight interferes with the inertial mass and restricts displacement of the inertial mass toward the lock activation direction.

Description

Webbing retracting device
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Webbing retracting device, this Webbing retracting device is used for rolling and storing the belt strap (webbing belt) that is used for retraining the automotive occupant health that is sitting in the seat.
Background technology
In the Webbing retracting device that constitutes seat belt device for vehicle, be provided with lockout mechanism, this lockout mechanism is used for limiting spool and rotates along pull-out direction when vehicle slows down suddenly, for example described in the flat 05-193441 communique of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (patent documentation 1).The lock gear that constitutes the lockout mechanism described in the patent documentation 1 can be rotated coaxially with respect to spool, and when spool with respect to lock gear when pull-out direction rotates, with this relatively rotates interlock be, the respective teeth of main ratchet and standby ratchet and the internal gearing that is formed on the two side of framework, thus limited the rotation of spool along pull-out direction.Two types the structure that produces relative rotation between spool and lock gear of being used for is arranged, and wherein a kind of structure is the deceleration detecting device.This deceleration detecting device is provided with coasting body, this coasting body leans on inertia motion when vehicle slows down suddenly, and engaging claw that is upwards pushed away by the coasting body of inertia motion and the outer indented joint on the lock gear, thereby the rotation of restriction lock gear, and lock gear is rotated with respect to the spool that just rotates along pull-out direction.

The operation of<the first exemplary embodiment and effect 〉
The operation and the effect of this Webbing retracting device 10 will be described below.
In this Webbing retracting device 10, under belt strap 26 rolled-up states on spool 20, when the power that applies of opposing coil spring 36 was moved belt strap 26 to distal side, along with belt strap 26 is pulled out gradually, spool 20 rotated along pull-out direction.
Like this, the belt strap 26 of pulling out is placed around occupant's health, thereby for example remain in the buckle device that is arranged at vehicle seat side by the hyoplastron that will be arranged on the center on belt strap 26 length directions, realize tightening state, in this tightening state, occupant's health is put on belt strap 26, and occupant's health is retrained by belt strap 26.Under fastened this state of belt strap 26, when vehicle was in the state of rapid deceleration, therefore hard ball 164 rolled, thereby sensor pawl 166 is upwards promoted by hard ball 164.Engaged with the interlocking pawl 152 of sensor gear 124 by the sensor pawl 166 that so upwards promotes, thereby upwards promote interlocking pawl 152.In this case, interlocking pawl 152 and V-gear 66 engagements.
When occupant's health because the inertia during car retardation and along roughly when the direction of vehicle front is moved, belt strap 26 is spurred suddenly by occupant's health.Like this, by the belt strap 26 that is spurred suddenly, turning effort just puts on spool 20 suddenly along pull-out direction.In principle, by the spool 20 that rotates along pull-out direction make torsion shaft 32 and thereby V-gear 66 is rotated along pull-out direction, and W shape pawl 80 and inertial mass body 84 rotate along pull-out direction with V-gear 66.
But, when spool 20 like that unexpected as mentioned above when pull-out direction rotates, inertial mass body 84 does not attempt to keep its position owing to inertia does not rotate, and in this case, inertial mass body 84 is resisted the applying power of retracing spring 88 and relatively swung with respect to V-gear 66.When inertial mass body 84 from state shown in Figure 3 during with respect to V-gear 66 swing, inertial mass body 84 is pushed W shape pawl 80 and is made 80 swings of W shape pawl, in this case as shown in Figure 4, one end motion of W shape pawl 80 near the interior circumferential portion of gear ring 70, and with the interior circumferential portion that is formed on gear ring 70 on the hook tooth engagement.
By making W shape pawl 80 and gear ring 70 engagements, the turning effort of spool 20 is delivered to gear ring 70 by torsion shaft 32, V-gear 66 and W shape pawl 80, thereby gear ring 70 is rotated along pull-out direction with V-gear 66.By gear ring 70 is rotated along pull-out direction, the power of being applied in is pushed and is rotated along pull-out direction with gear ring 70 against the friction spring 112 of gear ring 70 outer peripheral portions.
In this case, when friction spring 112 when pull-out direction rotates predetermined rotational angular, pressing part 116 is pushed sidewall 142 and friction ring 118 is rotated along pull-out direction.By friction ring 118 is rotated along pull-out direction, the pressing part 156 of friction ring 118 is pushed double pointed nail 154 near near the double pointed nail 154, and upwards promotes interlocking pawl 152.In this case, interlocking pawl 152 and V-gear 66 engagements.
When interlocking pawl 152 during with V-gear 66 engagements, as mentioned above, spool 20 is delivered to sensor gear 124 along the turning effort of pull-out direction by torsion shaft 32, V-gear 66 and interlocking pawl 152, sensor gear 124 thereby rotate along pull-out direction.
When the power that applies of sensor gear 124 opposing retracing springs 88 and when pull-out direction turned an angle, the pressing part 148 that is arranged on the sensor gear 124 pressure-locked the claw portion 176 of pawl 170, thereby claw portion 176 is pivoted around axle 172.When claw portion 176 like this when axle 172 pivots, ratchet portions 182 engagements of claw portion 176 and locking pedestal 178, thus restriction locking pedestal 178 along the rotation of pull-out direction, and thereby restriction spool 20 along the rotation of pull-out direction.Therefore, can keep definitely and retrain and attempt towards vehicle occupant's health of the place ahead inertia motion roughly.
Under the state that belt strap 26 is drawn out, when insert through hole 22 by the power that applies of coil spring 36 when roll up direction is rotated, belt strap 26 is rolled-up and be contained on the outer peripheral portion of insertion through hole 22 from the base end side longitudinally of belt strap 26.Here, insert through hole 22 and begin to rotate along roll up direction by this way, V-gear 66 begins to rotate along roll up direction along with the rotation of inserting through hole 22.When V-gear 66 is higher than predetermined acceleration/accel (spin velocity) when roll up direction is rotated, restriction weight 94 is because inertia and lag in turn occurs along roll up direction with respect to V-gear 66, and restriction weight 94 is attempted to resist the applying power of retracing spring 88 and rotated along pull-out direction with respect to V-gear 66.In this case, restriction weight 94 slides up to such position, and in this position, supporting pin 98 is from changing the position in the position of vertical end of elongated hole 96 to the position of its other end.By restriction weight 94 is slided, eliminated the relative status of mating surfaces 100 with composition surface 104.
In addition, because the center-of-gravity position of restriction weight 94 is away from the axle center of spool 20, therefore from the axle center (center of turn) of V-gear 66, the rotation sensitive of 94 pairs of V-gears 66 of restriction weight, and fly out and it is reacted towards the rotation outside radially of V-gear 66 by attempting.Therefore, eliminated the relative status of mating surfaces 100 with composition surface 104, and when V-gear 66 further when roll up direction is rotated because this centnifugal force, restriction weight 94 be positioned at rotation radially the movement outside of the part of roll up direction side with respect to supporting pin 98 towards V-gear 66.In this case, as shown in Figure 5, restriction weight 94 is around near the position of supporting pin 98 pivots mating surfaces 100 is positioned at composition surface 106, and the realization contact position.Like this, by the pivot of restriction weight 94, interference portion 108 is near the contact portion 110 of inertial mass body 84.
Inserting through hole 22, will limit weight 94 by the centnifugal force of V-gear 66 and remain on contact position along under the state of roll up direction rotation.When having finished rolling of belt strap 26, suppose to insert through hole 22 and rotate on a small quantity along pull-out direction suddenly as for rolling the counteraction of finishing by insertion through hole 22.In this case, V-gear 66 and insertion through hole 22 may rotate along pull-out direction is a small amount of suddenly.
In this case, acceleration/accel occurs, and what accompany is that restriction weight 94 is attempted to move along roll up direction with respect to V-gear 66 at the opposite pull-out direction of V-gear 66 upper edges direction up to the present.But, be positioned under the state of reached position at restriction weight 94, restriction weight 94 be positioned at along roll up direction than mating surfaces 100 further from the side end of a side contact with bond pad 102, thereby prevented that restriction weight 94 from along roll up direction or along comprising that the direction of this roll up direction moves, will limit weight 94 thus and remaining on the state of in-position.
In addition, as previously mentioned, when at V-gear 66 places when acceleration/accel appears largely in pull-out direction, in attempt to keep the inertial mass body 84 of its position owing to inertia lag in turn appears, inertial mass body 84 thereby swing along roll up direction with respect to V-gear 66.Here, when inertial mass body 84 swings, as mentioned above, inertial mass body 84 upwards promotes W shape pawl 80, thereby the W shape pawl 80 and the hook tooth of the interior perimembranous office of gear parts 78 are meshed.
But under this state, promptly under the current state that reaches, if inertial mass body 84 is attempted swing, then interference portion 108 contacts with contact portion 110, thereby has limited the swing of inertial mass body 84.Therefore, in this case, inertial mass body 84 does not upwards promote W shape pawl 80, thus W shape pawl 80 not with the hook tooth engagement of the interior circumferential portion of gear parts 78.
Like this, in this Webbing retracting device 10, when having finished rolling of belt strap 26 by insertion through hole 22, prevented the hook tooth engagement of W shape pawl 80 effectively with gear parts 78, " the end lock-out state " of so-called Webbing retracting device 10 appearred in the result.
In addition, as mentioned above, after the swing of inertial mass body 84 has been limited, restriction weight 94 rotates along roll up direction around supporting pin 98 owing to the applying power of retracing spring 88, and restriction weight 94 slides up to such position, that is: supporting pin 98 is in an end place longitudinally of elongated hole 96, limits weight 94 in this case and turns back to non-contacting position with inertial mass body 84.Like this, turn back to non-contacting position, removed restriction the swing of inertial mass body 84 by making restriction weight 94.
Like this, be under the state of non-contacting position at restriction weight 94, if V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly, then centnifugal force also acts on the restriction weight 94.But even V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly, restriction weight 94 can not slide as follows, that is: the position of supporting pin 98 changes to its other end from the vertical end in elongated hole 96.Therefore, in this case, do not eliminate the relative status of mating surfaces 100 and composition surface 104, and attempt when supporting pin 98 pivots when restriction weight 94, composition surface 104 contacts with mating surfaces 100, thereby has prevented the pivot of restriction weight 94.Like this, even V-gear 66 rotates suddenly,, then limit weight 94 and can not move to the position that is arrived from non-contacting position if should rotate along pull-out direction.Therefore, under this state, interference portion 108 can not contact with contact portion 110, thereby has limited the swing of inertial mass body 84.
That is to say, in this Webbing retracting device 10, when slowing down fast, can not hinder under the situation that locks the function of inserting through hole 22, can prevent " end lock-out state " such as top Webbing retracting device 10.
And, because this Webbing retracting device 10 is configured to activate the mechanism that is used to prevent to enter the end lock-out state by the turning effort and the centnifugal force that use V-gear 66, be used to therefore prevent that the mechanism of end locking from can make compact.
In addition, in this Webbing retracting device 10, each member that is used to prevent to enter the mechanism of end lock-out state all is installed in the V-gear 66 in the gear parts 78.Therefore, even can realize above-mentioned excellent effect, also preventing the size increase of Webbing retracting device 10 and can limiting this size extremely effectively increases.
In addition, in this Webbing retracting device 10, as mentioned above, owing to be configured such that W shape pawl 80 and fixed part 90 are by retracing spring 88 application of forces, therefore compare with W shape pawl 80 wherein and the structure that limits all separated force application part application of force of weight 94, can reduce the number of components.Follow this minimizing, also reduced the quantity of member assembling process.In this case, can realize that cost reduces, and help to prevent or suppress the size increase of this Webbing retracting device 10 widely.

The bond pad 102 of V-gear 66 has the general triangular shape, and is formed with on the spool 20 center axis edges of bond pad 102: the first face of joint 102A that is positioned at the pull-out direction side; With the second face of joint 102B, this second face of joint is positioned at the roll up direction side of the first face of joint 102A and the outer circumferential side of the more close spool 20 of the ratio first face of joint 102A.Bond pad 102 is inserted into engaging groove 206 inside, and restriction weight 94: when being arranged in spool 20 center axis, be arranged in the noncontact part, wherein, engaging groove 206 the side on the roll up direction and bond pad 102 at the contacts side surfaces on the roll up direction side (non-contacting position when the first opposed face 206B also faces (joint) second face of joint 102B in the face of (joint) first face of joint 102A and the second opposed face 206C); And as shown in Figure 9, when being arranged in spool 20 outer circumferential sides, be arranged in contact position, wherein, engaging groove 206 the side on the pull-out direction and bond pad 102 the contacts side surfaces on the pull-out direction side (when the first face of joint 102A in the face of (charging into) opening portion 206A and the first opposed face 206B contact position during also in the face of (joint) second face of joint 102B).
End as the retracing spring 208 of force application part anchors to restriction weight 94, and retracing spring 208 is the coil springs that are formed with coil shape fixed part 208A on it.Fixed part 208A anchors on the set pin 210 that is formed on the V-gear 66, and the other end of retracing spring 208 anchors to V-gear 66.In this case, retracing spring 208 to the restriction weight 94 from contact position along the direction application of force towards non-contacting position so that the restriction weight 94 be arranged in non-contacting position.
Roll up direction lateral edge portion office at restriction weight 94 is provided with circular bar shape turning cylinder 212, and this turning cylinder 212 stretches out to its V-gear 66 sides from restriction weight 94.
Be at V-gear 66 between the roll up direction lateral edge portions of the pull-out direction lateral edge portions of inertial mass body 84 and restriction weight 94 and be supported with rotationally as being construed as limiting the tabular bar 214 of roughly annular arrangement of the limiting part of unit.Connect at the part place of restriction weight 94 sides of bar 214 and to be formed with rotation hole 216.This rotation hole 216 is elongated hole, the turning cylinder 212 of restriction weight 94 passes this elongated hole, and when restriction weight 94 was arranged in non-contacting position, turning cylinder 212 was arranged in the end of inertial mass body 84 sides of rotation hole 216, thereby bar 214 is arranged in non-contacting position.In addition, when restriction weight 94 from non-contacting position when contact position moves, dwang 212 moves to the end of restriction weight 94 sides of rotation hole 216, and the rotation by bar 214, bar 214 is arranged in contact position (referring to Fig. 9).
Be formed with rectangular plate shape hook 218 at the part place of inertial mass body 84 sides of bar 214, and hook 218 stretches out from the opposition side of bar 214 towards V-gear 66 as restricted part.When bar 214 is arranged in non-contacting position, hook 218 separates from the lock slots 20 of inertial mass body 84, when bar 214 is arranged in contact position, hook 218 stretches in the lock slots 204, and can limit the swing (referring to Fig. 9) of inertial mass body 84 along the locking direction of actuation by the hook 218 and the joint (contact) of lock slots 204.
Here, when car retardation and because inertia makes occupant's health along roughly when the direction of vehicle front is moved, suddenly spur belt strap 26, spool 20 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly, and V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly with W shape pawl 80, inertial mass body 84 and bar 214.But because inertia, inertial mass body 84 does not rotate with respect to V-gear 66, and attempts to keep its position, and inertial mass body 84 is resisted the power that applies of compression coil springs 202 and swung with respect to V-gear 66.In this case, inertial mass body 84 is swung with respect to V-gear 66 from state shown in Figure 7, inertial mass body 84 is pushed W shape pawl 80 and is made 80 swings of W shape pawl, and for this reason, as shown in Figure 8, near the interior circumferential portion of the nearly gear ring 70 of one termination of W shape pawl 80, and with the interior circumferential portion that is formed on gear ring 70 on hook tooth engagement.
When belt strap 26 rolled-up on the outer peripheral portion of spool 20 and spool 20 by the power that applies of wind spring 36 when roll up direction is rotated, V-gear 66 rotates along roll up direction with W shape pawl 80, inertial mass body 84 and bar 214.When V-gear 66 with greater than predetermined acceleration/accel (cireular frequency) when roll up direction is rotated, then because inertia, restriction weight 94 is with respect to V-gear 66 hysteresis that rotates, thereby the power that applies of restriction weight 94 opposing retracing springs 208 and with respect to V-gear 66 swings, and restriction weight 94 is also because centnifugal force and to the outer circumferential side motion of V-gear 66.In this case, as shown in Figure 9, restriction weight 94 moves to contact position from non-contacting position, bar 214 rotates to contact position from non-contacting position, thereby the hook 218 of bar 214 stretches in the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84, has limited the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation.Therefore, under the state that spool 20 rotates along roll up direction, restriction weight 94 is owing to centnifugal force keeps its contact position.
When spool 20 is rolled belt strap 26 fully, spool 20 and V-gear 66 rotate with hoot suddenly along pull-out direction owing to resilience, thereby V-gear 66 acceleration/accel occurs along pull-out direction, and restriction weight 94 is attempted to move along roll up direction with respect to V-gear 66.At this moment, as mentioned above, restriction weight 94 is arranged in contact position (contacts side surfaces of the side of the pull-out direction side of the engaging groove 206 of restriction weight 94 and the pull-out direction side of bond pad 102), prevented that restriction weight 94 is with respect to the motion of V-gear 66 towards roll up direction, kept wherein limiting weight 94 and bar 214 is in the state of contact position, and kept the hook 218 of its king-rod 214 to stretch into state in the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84.
Therefore, as mentioned above, even V-gear 66 occurs than high acceleration along pull-out direction, and inertial mass body 84 attempts along the locking direction of actuation with respect to V-gear 66 swings, and above-mentioned hook 218 stretches into lock slots 204 and limited the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation.Therefore, inertial mass body 84 can upwards not promote W shape pawl 80, and W shape pawl 80 also not can with the hook tooth engagement of the interior circumferential portion of gear parts 78, therefore can prevent effectively that Webbing retracting device 200 from entering so-called " end lock-out state ".
In addition, after restriction weight 94 prevented inertial mass body 84 swings, restriction weight 94 and bar 214 turned back to non-contacting position owing to the applying power of retracing spring 208 from contact position, thereby removed the restriction to inertial mass body 84 swings.
Like this, be under the state of non-contacting position,, then also have centrifugal action on restriction weight 94 if V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly at restriction weight 94 and bar 214.But, even V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly, (the first opposed face 206B of restriction weight 94 engages with the first face of joint 102A of bond pad 102 because restriction weight 94 is in non-contacting position, and the second opposed face 206C of restriction weight 94 also engages with the second face of joint 102B of bond pad 102), therefore prevented restriction weight 94 owing to centnifugal force and with respect to V-gear 66 and towards the motion of V-gear 66 outer circumferential sides, thereby restriction weight 94 and bar 214 still are arranged in non-contacting position.Therefore, can prevent the restriction of inertial mass body 84 towards the swing of locking direction of actuation.
In the above described manner, except since retracing spring 88 to the effect of the W shape pawl 80 and restriction weight 94 application of forces, this exemplary embodiment can show and the similar effect of above-mentioned first exemplary embodiment.
In addition, compression coil spring 202 is to inertial mass body 84 application of forces, and retracing spring is also 84 to restriction weight 94 application of forces.Therefore, inertial mass body 84 and restriction weight 94 all can be applied in sizeable power.
And from the motion of non-contacting position to contact position, bar 214 moves to contact position from non-contacting position by restriction weight 94, thereby has prevented that by bar 214 inertial mass body 84 is towards the swing of locking direction of actuation.Therefore, by the rotation of V-gear 66, restriction weight 94 is suitably moved to contact position from non-contacting position, and can suitably limit the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation by bar 214 towards roll up direction.

The structure of<the three exemplary embodiment 〉
In Figure 10, illustrate the structure of relevant portion of the Webbing retracting device 300 of the 3rd exemplary embodiment by exploded perspective, and in Figure 11, show the structure of the relevant portion of Webbing retracting device 300 by front elevation according to the present invention.
, except following difference, have basically and the identical structure of top first exemplary embodiment according to the Webbing retracting device 300 of this exemplary embodiment.
In Webbing retracting device 300, in turning feeler mechanism 68, in the second top exemplary embodiment, W shape pawl 80 is provided with double pointed nail 80A, inertial mass body 84 is provided with conjugate foramen 84A and lock slots 204, and compression coil spring 202 is across between inertial mass body 84 and V-gear 66.
But, set pin 92, supporting pin 98 and the bond pad 102 of retracing spring 88 in top first exemplary embodiment, restriction weight 94, V-gear 66 are not set.
Near the part place of the V-gear 66 pull-out direction lateral edges of inertial mass body 84 has been wholely set circular bar shape supporting pin 302, and supporting pin 302 stretches out from V-gear 66.
Thereby the periphery of supporting pin 302 is provided with bar 304 and can rotates in limited range, and bar 304 is elongated and is the arm type of rectangular plate shape substantially.
Bar 304 is formed with the hook 306 as the crooked rectangular plate shape of restricted part at the part place of its inertial mass body 84 sides, and hook 306 stretches out from the opposition side of bar 304 to V-gear 66.Here, when bar 304 is in non-contacting position (in this position, it is arranged in the turned position towards the opposition side of inertial mass body 84) time, hook 306 separates from the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84, and when bar 304 is in contact position (in this position, it is arranged in the turned position towards inertial mass body 84 sides) time, hook 306 stretches in the lock slots 204, thereby can limit the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation by the hook 306 and the joint (contact) of lock slots 204.
Bar 304 is formed with a pair of rectangular plate shape connecting panel 308 as connecting bridge at the part place of the opposition side that is positioned at inertial mass body 84, and this stretches out from the opposition side of bar 304 to V-gear 66 connecting panel 308.A central side that is arranged in V-gear 66 in the connecting panel 308, and in the connecting panel 308 another is arranged in the outer circumferential side of V-gear 66, and this is arranged parallel to each other connecting panel 308.
Be supported on the center of supporting pin 302 rotationally as an end of the roughly U-shaped bar friction spring 310 of the friction force application part that constitutes the friction force production part, and the other end of friction spring 310 bends to U-shaped.From an end of friction spring 310 on the direction of its other end, friction spring 310 stretches out (referring to Figure 14) gradually towards the direction opposite with V-gear 66, and friction spring 3 10 have towards turning cylinder to the power that applies.Friction spring 310 part at one end stretches into a connecting panel place on the outer circumferential side that is positioned at V-gear 66 in connecting panel 308, and stretch into another connecting panel place on the central side that is positioned at V-gear 66 in connecting panel 308, and be installed on the bar 304, in this case, friction spring 310 and bar 304 can rotate each other integratedly.
The shaft-like lid 312 of essentially rectangular (cap) as the coating member that constitutes the friction force production part is installed in the part place of the other end that is positioned at friction spring 310, and is positioned at the shaft-like central side towards V-gear 66 of part semicircular in shape that covers 312 far-end and stretches out.Shown in Figure 15 is detailed, be formed with insertion groove 314 in the office, inside of lid 312, and insertion groove 314 is to V-gear 66 side openings.The part that is arranged in friction spring 310 other ends is assembled to covers 312 insertion groove 314, and in this case, lid 312 is assembled on the friction spring 310.At lid 312 places, be formed with the jut 316 of predetermined quantity (being four in this exemplary embodiment) at the part place of the both sides of the opening of insertion groove 314, and jut 316 stretches out to the open side of insertion groove 314, and friction spring 310 is anchored at jut 316 and sentences and prevent to cover 312 and drop from friction spring 310.
As shown in figure 14, lid 312 contacts with the surface (plane) of V-gear 66 sides of gear ring 70 by the power that applies of friction spring 310 in the part of far-end, and when V-gear 66 rotates, between the surface of V-gear 66 sides of the described part of lid 312 far-end and gear ring 70, produce friction, thereby cover 312, friction spring 310 and bar 304 rotate integratedly.In this case, as shown in figure 12, when V-gear 66 when pull-out direction rotates, bar 304 is arranged in non-contacting position, the hook 306 of bar 304 separates from the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84, and as shown in figure 13, when V-gear 66 when roll up direction is rotated, bar 304 is arranged in contact position, and the hook 306 of bar 304 stretches in the lock slots 204.
In addition, as mentioned above, friction spring 310 is in the described part at other end place is inserted in a described connecting panel 308 on the outer circumferential side of V-gear 66 of bar 304, and be inserted in described another connecting panel 308 on the central side of V-gear 66 of bar 304, and be installed on the bar 304, so bar 304 can be along contacting to the direction of V-gear 66 sides with V-gear 66 opposition sides with friction spring 310.In this case, the power that applies of friction spring 310 can be along the turning cylinder of friction spring 310 and bar 304 to being delivered to bar 304, can be suppressed between friction spring 310 and the bar 304 and to produce friction, thereby can suppress by the power that applies of friction spring 310 obstruction to the rotation of friction spring 310 and bar 304.
Here, when car retardation and because inertia makes occupant's health along roughly when the direction of vehicle front is moved, spur belt strap 26 suddenly, spool 20 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly, and V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly with W shape pawl 80, inertial mass body 84, bar 304 and friction spring 310 (comprise and cover 312).Because inertia, inertial mass body 84 do not rotate with respect to V-gear 66, inertial mass body 84 attempts to keep its position, thereby inertial mass body 84 is resisted the power that applies of compression coil springs 202 and swung with respect to V-gear 66.In addition, as shown in figure 12, between the surface of V-gear 66 sides of the described part of lid 312 far-end and gear ring 70, produce friction, and unitary rotation by friction spring 310 (comprise and cover 312) and bar 304, make bar 304 be arranged in non-contacting position, and the hook 306 of bar 304 is from lock slots 204 separation of inertial mass body 84.In this case, allow inertial mass body 84 with respect to V-gear 66 swings, and when inertial mass body 84 is swung with respect to V-gear 66, inertial mass body 84 is pushed W shape pawl 80 and is made 80 swings of W shape pawl, near the interior circumferential portion of the nearly gear ring 70 of one termination of W shape pawl 80, and with the interior circumferential portion that is formed on gear ring 70 on hook tooth engagement.
But, when belt strap 26 rolled-up on the outer peripheral portion of spool 20 and spool 20 by the power that applies of wind spring 36 when roll up direction is rotated, V-gear 66 rotates along roll up direction with W shape pawl 80, inertial mass body 84, bar 304 and friction spring 310 (comprise and cover 312).Inertial mass body 84 does not rotate with respect to V-gear 66 because inertia attempts to keep its position, and inertial mass body 84 attempts to resist the power that applies of compression coil spring 202 and with respect to V-gear 66 swings.In addition, as shown in figure 13, between the surface of V-gear 66 sides of the described part of lid 312 far-end and gear ring 70, produce friction, and friction spring 310 (comprise and cover 312) and insertion groove 314 unitary rotation, bar 304 is arranged in contact position, and the hook 306 of bar 304 stretches in the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84.In this case, limited the swing of inertial mass body 84 with respect to V-gear 66.
When spool 20 is rolled belt strap 26 fully, even spool 20 and V-gear 66 rotate with hoot suddenly along pull-out direction owing to resilience, bar 304 also is held in place in the state of contact position, and the hook 306 of bar 304 remains on the state in the lock slots 204 that stretches into inertial mass body 84.
Therefore, as mentioned above, even V-gear 66 produces than high acceleration along pull-out direction, and inertial mass body 84 is owing to inertia is attempted to swing with respect to V-gear 66 along the locking direction of actuation, and above-mentioned hook 306 inserts lock slots 204 and also limited the swing of inertial mass body 84 along the locking direction of actuation.Therefore, inertial mass body 84 can upwards not promote W shape pawl 80, and since W shape pawl 80 not can with the hook tooth engagement of the interior circumferential portion of gear parts 78, therefore can prevent effectively that Webbing retracting device 300 from entering so-called " end lock-out state ".
Pass through said structure, except be configured to turning effort by V-gear 66 and action of centrifugal force prevent to enter the end lock-out state mechanism effect and by retracing spring 88 to the effect of the W shape pawl 80 and restriction weight 94 application of forces, this exemplary embodiment also can have and the similar effect of above-mentioned first exemplary embodiment.
In addition, in this Webbing retracting device 300, since use the turning effort of V-gear 66 and cover 312 and the friction force of gear ring 70 be configured for preventing to enter the mechanism of end lock-out state, therefore can will be used to prevent that the mechanism that enters the end lock-out state from making compact.
And, bar 304 by cover 312 and gear ring 70 between friction force and move to contact position from non-contacting position, and by bar 304 restriction inertial mass bodies 84 towards the swing of locking direction of actuation.Therefore, bar 304 can suitably move to contact position from non-contacting position along the rotation of roll up direction by V-gear 66, and can suitably limit the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation by bar 304.
In addition, the part of the far-end of lid 312 contacts with gear ring 70, and produces friction between lid 312 and gear ring 70.Therefore, can between lid 312 and gear ring 70, carry out surface and contact, thereby can between lid 312 and gear ring 70, carry out level and smooth and stable relative motion, can suppress thus owing to covering 312 and the caused by relative motion noise of gear ring 70.
In this exemplary embodiment, structure is for like this, that is: the lid 312 that is installed on the part at another distolateral place of friction spring 310 contacts with gear ring 70, needn't be installed on the described part at another distolateral place of friction spring 310 but cover 312, can be so that the other end of friction spring 310 contacts with gear ring 70.

The structure of<the four exemplary embodiment 〉
In Figure 16, illustrate the structure of relevant portion of the Webbing retracting device 400 of the 4th exemplary embodiment by exploded perspective, and in Figure 17, show the structure of the relevant portion of Webbing retracting device 400 by front elevation according to the present invention.
Except following difference, has identical with first exemplary embodiment basically structure according to the Webbing retracting device 400 of this exemplary embodiment.
In Webbing retracting device 400, at turning feeler mechanism 68 places, with with second exemplary embodiment in identical mode, W shape pawl 80 is provided with double pointed nail 80A, inertial mass body 84 is provided with conjugate foramen 84A and lock slots 204, and compression coil spring 202 is also across between inertial mass body 84 and V-gear 66.
But, set pin 92, supporting pin 98 and the bond pad 102 of retracing spring 88 in top first exemplary embodiment, restriction weight 94, V-gear 66 are not set.
V-gear 66 has been wholely set cylindrical support pin 402 in the vicinity of the marginal portion of the pull-out direction side of inertial mass body 84, and supporting pin 402 stretches out to V-gear 66 sides.
Bar 404 is supported on the periphery of supporting pin 402, thereby can rotate in preset range, and bar 404 is the sliding-type bars that form long and essentially rectangular shape.
Bar 404 is formed with the hook 406 as the crooked rectangular plate shape of restricted part at the part place of its inertial mass body 84 sides, and hook 406 stretches out from the opposition side of bar 404 to V-gear 66.By bar 404 is arranged in towards with the rotational position of inertial mass body 84 side opposition sides, hook 406 is separated from the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84, and as shown in figure 19, by bar 404 being arranged in as contact position to the turned position of inertial mass body 84 sides, hook 406 stretches in the lock slots 204, thereby can limit the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation by the hook 406 and the joint (contact) of lock slots 204.
Bar 404 is formed with the drive plate 408 of rectangular plate shape at the part place of the opposition side of inertial mass body 84, and drive plate 408 stretches out from the opposition side of bar 404 to V-gear 66.
V-gear 66 is provided with the tabular sliding part 410 that conduct constitutes the link of friction force production part in the pull-out direction side of bar 404.The guide protrusion 412 that constitutes the crooked rectangular plate shape of guide member stretches out from the surface of V-gear 66 sides of sliding part 410, and guide protrusion 412 is along the circumferential skewing of V-gear 66.Guide protrusion 412 is charged in the bullport 414 and is contacted (referring to Fig. 2, Figure 20 and Figure 21) with sensor frame 62, and by guide protrusion 412 is slided (motion) along bullport 414, sliding part 410 can be along the circumferential slip (motion) of V-gear 66.
Connect sliding part 410 and be formed with the drive hole 416 that constitutes drive part in the part of bar 404 sides, and thereby sliding part 410 and bar 404 link together by the drive plate 408 of charging into the bar 404 that can move rotationally therein in the drive hole 416, and, bar 404 is rotated by making the circumferential slip of sliding part 410 along V-gear 66.
Be supported on the surface that is positioned at V-gear 66 opposition sides of sliding part 410 rotationally as an end of the roughly U-shaped bar friction spring 418 of the friction force application part that constitutes the friction force production part, and the other end of friction spring 418 bends to roughly U-shaped.Friction spring 418 is arranged in another distolateral described part than the opposition side of the more close V-gear 66 of described part of side at one end, and friction spring 418 have towards turning cylinder to the power that applies.On the surface that is positioned at V-gear 66 opposition sides of sliding part 410, be formed with the insertion groove 420 of waveform slit-shaped, and friction spring 418 inserts in this insertion groove 420 in described one distolateral part, thereby prevent that friction spring 418 from rotating with respect to sliding part 410.Place, bottom surface at insertion groove 420 is formed with square column type supporting projections 422, and supported projection 422 supports the part of friction spring 418 at a described end place at the surface thereof place.
As Figure 20 and shown in Figure 21, the other end of friction spring 418 is because the power that applies of friction spring 418 and contacting with the surface (plane) of V-gear 66 sides of gear ring 70, and by between the surface of V-gear 66 sides of the described other end of friction spring 418 and gear ring 70, producing friction force, friction spring 418 and sliding part 410 circumferentially slide with respect to V-gear 66 one along V-gear 66, thereby bar 404 rotates.In this case, as shown in figure 18, when V-gear 66 when pull-out direction rotates, bar 404 is arranged in non-contacting position, thereby the hook 406 of bar 404 separates from the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84, and when V-gear 66 when roll up direction is rotated, as shown in figure 19, bar 404 is arranged in contact position, and the hook 406 of bar 404 inserts in the lock slots 204.
Here, when car retardation and because inertia makes occupant's health along roughly when the direction of vehicle front is moved, spur belt strap 26 suddenly, spool 20 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly, and V-gear 66 rotates along pull-out direction suddenly with W shape pawl 80, inertial mass body 84, bar 404, sliding part 410 and friction spring 418.Because inertia, inertial mass body 84 do not rotate with respect to V-gear 66, but attempt to keep its position, inertial mass body 84 is resisted the power that applies of compression coil springs 202 and is swung with respect to V-gear 66.In addition, as shown in figure 18, between the surface of V-gear 66 sides of the described other end of friction spring 418 and gear ring 70, produce friction force, thereby by making friction spring 418 and sliding part 410 circumferentially sliding along V-gear 66 with respect to V-gear 66, bar 404 rotates, thereby bar 404 is arranged in non-contacting position, and the hook 406 of bar 404 separates from the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84.In this case, inertial mass body 84 can be with respect to V-gear 66 swings, and inertial mass body 84 is with respect to V-gear 66 swings, inertial mass body 84 pushes W shape pawl 80 so that 80 swings of W shape pawl, near the interior circumferential portion of the nearly gear ring 70 of one termination of W shape pawl 80, and with the interior circumferential portion that is formed on gear ring 70 on hook tooth engagement.
But, when belt strap 26 rolled-up on the outer peripheral portion of spool 20 and spool 20 when the power that the applies lower edge of wind spring 36 roll up direction is rotated, V-gear 66 rotates along roll up direction with W shape pawl 80, inertial mass body 84, bar 404, sliding part 410 and friction spring 418.Therefore, because inertia, inertial mass body 84 does not rotate with respect to V-gear 66 but attempts to keep its position, and the power that applies of inertial mass body 84 opposing compression coil springs 202 and with respect to V-gear 66 swings.In addition, as shown in figure 19, between the surface of V-gear 66 sides of the described other end of friction spring 418 and gear ring 70, produce friction force, by making friction spring 418 and sliding part 410 circumferentially sliding along V-gear 66 with respect to V-gear 66, bar 404 rotates, thereby bar 404 is arranged in contact position.The hook 406 of bar 404 is charged in the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84.In this case, limited the swing of inertial mass body 84 with respect to V-gear 66.
When spool 20 is rolled belt strap 26 fully, even spool 20 and V-gear 66 rotate with hoot suddenly along pull-out direction owing to resilience, bar 404 also remains in the state of contact position, and the hook 406 of bar 404 keeps stretching into the state in the lock slots 204 of inertial mass body 84.
Therefore, as mentioned above, even V-gear 66 acceleration/accel largely occurs towards pull-out direction, and inertial mass body 84 is owing to inertia is attempted along the locking direction of actuation with respect to V-gear 66 swings, because above-mentioned hook 406 is charged into lock slots 204, also can limit the swing of inertial mass body 84 along the locking direction of actuation.Therefore, inertial mass body 84 can upwards not promote W shape pawl 80, and since W shape pawl 80 not can with the hook tooth engagement of the interior circumferential portion of gear parts 78, therefore can prevent effectively that Webbing retracting device 400 from entering so-called " end lock-out state ".
Pass through said structure, except be configured to turning effort by V-gear 66 and action of centrifugal force prevent to enter the end lock-out state mechanism effect and by retracing spring 88 to the effect of the W shape pawl 80 and restriction weight 94 application of forces, this exemplary embodiment also can have and the similar effect of above-mentioned first exemplary embodiment.
In addition, because being used to of Webbing retracting device 400 prevents that the mechanism that enters the end lock-out state is configured to operate by the turning effort of V-gear 66 and the friction force between friction spring 418 and the gear ring 70, therefore can will be used to prevent that the mechanism that enters the end lock-out state from making compactness.
And bar 404 moves to contact position from non-contacting position by the friction force between friction spring 418 and the gear ring 70, and by the swing of bar 404 restriction inertial mass bodies 84 towards the locking direction of actuation.For this reason, bar 404 can suitably move to contact position from non-contacting position along the rotation of roll up direction by V-gear 66, and can suitably limit the swing of inertial mass body 84 towards the locking direction of actuation by bar 404.
In addition, because therefore the simple shape of bar 404 and sliding part 410 can improve stack-mounted comformability and processibility, and can cost-cutting.
In this exemplary embodiment, structure is for like this, that is: the other end of friction spring 418 and gear ring 70 contact with each other, but can be as in the 3rd exemplary embodiment, the part of friction spring 418 at another distolateral place can be equipped with covers 312, and can make and cover 312 and contact with gear ring 70.
