  • a rear part of the body 27 is covered with a cover 43 having an outer shape substantially corresponding to the outer shape of the collar portion 27b of the body 27, and this cover 43 is mounted on the collar portion 27b.
  • a circular window 44 is provided in the cover 43, part of the cap 35 at the rear end of the rotor 28 being fitted into the circular window 44.
  • a lid lock mechanism 22 is provided between the box portion 17a of the leg shield 17 and the lid 18, that is, in this embodiment between the lid 18 and the rotor 28 supported on the body 27 fixed to the lid 18, the lid lock mechanism 22 releasing engagement with the box portion 17a side so as to enable the lid 18 to be opened in response to the rotor 28 of the cylinder lock 20 pivoting to the open position P3.
  • the lid lock mechanism 22 includes a slider 45 running slidably through a through hole 50 provided in the body cover 31 and having at the outer end an engagement portion 45a detachably engaging with the box portion 17a side of the leg shield 17, a spring 46 provided in a compressed state between the slider 45 and the body main portion 27a so as to spring-bias the engagement portion 45a so that it projects outward in the radial direction of the body main portion 27a, an abutment arm 47 that projects toward the rotor 28 side from an inner end part of the slider 45 and that is provided integrally with the slider 45, and a restricting projection 48 and a pressing projection 49 that are provided integrally with the front end of the rotor 28 and that can abut against the abutment arm 47.
  • the slider 45 is slidably fitted into a guide recess 51 provided in an inner face at the front end of the body main portion 27a along one diameter of the body main portion 27a, and the spring 46, which is in a coiled form, is provided in a compressed state between the body main portion 27a and the slider 45 so as to surround a pin 52 projectingly and integrally provided on the body main portion 27a while facing the inner end of the slider 45.
  • the restricting projection 48 is projectingly provided on the rotor 28 so as to be coaxial therewith, and in a state in which the rotor 28 is at the locked position P1 as shown in FIG. 6 and in a state in which the rotor 28 is at the unlocked position P2 as shown in FIG. 7 , the restricting projection 48 abuts against the abutment projection 47 of the slider 45 from a direction opposite to that in which it is urged by the spring 46, thus determining a projection end position for the slider 45.
  • the pressing projection 49 is projectingly provided at the rear end of the rotor 28 at a position offset from the pivot center of the rotor 28; when the rotor 28 is at the locked position P1 shown in FIG. 6 , the pressing projection 49 does not abut against the abutment projection 47, but when the rotor 28 is pivoted to the unlocked position P2 shown in FIG. 7 the pressing projection 49 abuts against the abutment projection 47 from a direction opposite to that in which it is urged by the spring 46, and when the rotor 28 is pivoted from the unlocked position P2 shown in FIG. 7 to the open position P3 shown in FIG.
  • a pressing force acts on the abutment projection 47, thus making the slider 45 slide toward the side on which the slider 45 is housed within the body main portion 27a against the spring bias force of the spring 46, and thereby releasing an engaged state of the lid 18 with the box portion 17a and enabling the lid 18 to be opened.
  • a notch 53 is provided in a lower part of the cover 43 mounted on the rear part of the body 27, and an upper part of the operating knob 21 is inserted within the cover 43 via the notch 53 so that it can slide in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the rotor 28.
  • a pair of guide grooves 54 and 54 are provided in a face of the collar portion 27b of the body 27 on the cover 43 side, the guide grooves 54 and 54 extending vertically on opposite sides of the cylinder hole 29, and stoppers 55 and 55 are integrally provided so as to project rearward from the lower ends of the guide grooves 54.
  • the operating knob 21 can slide in a vertical direction perpendicular to the pivot center of the rotor 28 while being guided by the guide grooves 54 and the two guide portions 27c of the body 27, and a return spring 56 is provided in a compressed state between the body 27 and the operating knob 21, the return spring 56 exhibiting a spring force in a direction in which the operating knob 21 is pushed downward.
  • the downwardly moving end of the operating knob 21 is restricted by the operating knob 21 abutting against the two stopper portions 55 from above.
  • a pressure-receiving portion 60 and a restricting portion 61 are projectingly provided on the rotor 28, the pressure-receiving portion 60 and the restricting portion 61 being spaced in the peripheral direction and projecting radially outward so as to be in sliding contact with the collar portion 27b of the body 27 from the rear, and first and second pressing portions 62 and 63 are provided with a gap therebetween on the operating knob 21 in a portion corresponding to the outer periphery of the rotor 28.
  • the pressure-receiving portion 60 and the restricting portion 61 therefore have outer peripheral faces that follow a first imaginary circle C1 with the same radii and the center at the pivot center of the rotor 28, and when the rotor 28 is at the unlocked position P2, the restricting portion 61 extends substantially horizontally from the rotor 28 to the left-hand side in FIG. 9 , and the pressure-receiving portion 60 is disposed at a position extending obliquely from the rotor 28 to the lower left-hand side at a position spaced from the restricting portion 61 in the anticlockwise direction in FIG. 9 .
  • a substantially V-shaped valley portion 64 is thus formed on the outer periphery of the rotor 28 between the pressure-receiving portion 60 and the restricting portion 61.
  • the first pressing portion 62 of the operating knob 21 is disposed beneath the rotor 28 on the left-hand side so as to face the pressure-receiving portion 60 when the rotor 28 is at the locked position P1, and an arc-shaped pressing face 65 is formed at the extremity of the first pressing portion 62; this pressing face 65 is formed so as to follow a second imaginary circle C2 having its center at the pivot center of the rotor 28 when the operating knob 21 is in a non-pushing-in operation state, and the radius of the second imaginary circle C2 is set so as to be slightly larger than the radius of the first imaginary circle C1.
  • the second pressing portion 63 of the operating knob 21 is disposed at a position that faces the rotor 28 from the lower right so that the extremity of the second pressing portion 63 is on the second imaginary circle C2 when the operating knob 21 is in the non-pushing-in operation state, and a side face of the second pressing portion 63 on the first pressing portion 62 side is formed as a flat restricting face 66 against which the restricting portion 61 of the rotor 28 can abut.
  • Pushing in the operating knob 21 when the rotor 28 is at the locked position P1 makes the pressing face 65 at the extremity of the first pressing portion 62 of the operating knob 21 abut against the outer periphery of the extremity of the pressure-receiving portion 60 of the rotor 28, thus preventing a pushing-in operation of the operating knob 21 and making a pressing force directed toward the pivot center side of the rotor 28 act on the rotor 28.
  • Pivoting the rotor 28 from the locked position P1 to the unlocked position P2 by operation of the key moves the pressure-receiving portion 60 of the rotor 28 to a position slightly beyond the second pressing portion 63 of the operating knob 21 as shown in FIG.
  • the rotor 28 is provided with the pressure-receiving portion 60, against which the first and second pressing portions 62 and 63 provided on the operating knob 21 abut in response to a pushing-in operation of the operating knob 21; the first pressing portion 62, the second pressing portion 63, and the pressure-receiving portion 60 are formed so that, when the rotor 28 is at the locked position P1 and the operating knob 21 is pressed, a pressing force directed toward the pivot center side of the rotor 28 acts from the operating knob 21 on the rotor 28, and when the rotor 28 is at the unlocked position P2 and the operating knob 21 is pushed in, a force pivoting the rotor 28 from the unlocked position P2 to the open position P3 side acts from the operating knob 21 on the rotor 28.
  • the rotor 28 can be pivoted in one step from the locked position P1 via the unlocked position P2 to the open position P3 by operation of the key, and by so doing the lid 18 can be opened.
