TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] Present disclosure relates to locking systems. Particularly, the present disclosure relates to a steering lock of a vehicle that ensures smooth locking and unlocking operation of a steering of the vehicle.
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
[002] The information in this section merely provides background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art(s) for the present disclosure.
[003] Vehicles such as, but not limited to, two-wheelers such as bikes, scooters, mopeds, and the like are provided with at least one steering lock to lock the steering of the vehicle. The steering lock comprises a lock unit and a key. The lock unit is provided to lock or unlock the steering of the vehicle upon receiving input from a user by means of the key. Conventionally, the key is inserted in a keyhole to operate the lock unit for locking and unlocking of the steering of the vehicle.
[004] In recent times, developments in the steering lock of the vehicles have been growing at a rapid pace, leading to the development of an automated steering lock. The automated steering lock includes an electronic key which is not required to be inserted in the keyhole to operate the steering lock. The electronic key generates electronic signals by receiving input from the user by pressing a button of the electronic key and transferring it to a lock unit of the automated steering lock to perform an operation of locking or unlocking the steering lock. The lock unit mainly includes an electric motor, a planetary gear unit, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is operated based on the electronic signals received from the electronic key to slide a locking bar of the lock unit to lock or unlock the steering. However, the planetary gear unit includes a plurality of gears that require large space for their operation in the vehicle. Further, the assembly of the electronic motor, the planetary gear unit, and the electronic control unit are enclosed by the housing that increases the overall size of the automated steering lock. Also, manufacturing the planetary gear unit and the other parts of the conventional steering lock unit is a complex task and it incurs high costs, which is undesired.

The slider (150) engaged with a lock bar (170) that
may be adapted to linear displacement in response to the linear displacement of the slider (150). When the cam (130) rotates, the slider (150) displaces linearly relative to the cam profile (134) of the cam (130) and further displaces the lock bar (170) to lock the steering of the vehicle. The slider (150) may be biased towards the cam (130) through a resilient member (160). The resilient member (160) has one end coupled to the lower casing (10) and the other end may be coupled to the slider (150). The resilient member (160) may be a “Conical” type spring. When the cam (130) actuates the slider (150), the slider (150) slides against the biasing force of the resilient member (160) and displaces the lock bar to selectively lock the steering of the vehicle. The lock bar (170) further engages with a steering portion to lock the steering of the vehicle. The structure and provision of the cam (130) and slider (150) of the steering lock (500) ensure smooth operations of the locking and unlocking of the steering of the vehicle.
[0042] Referring to Figure 8, the steering lock (500) has a detection unit. The detection unit may be configured to detect the position of the slider (150). The detection unit comprises a magnet (180) and a plurality of sensing elements (190). The magnet (180) may be disposed within a cavity formed on the slider (150) and the plurality of sensing elements (190) may be disposed proximal to the slider (150) on the PCBA (printed circuit board) The magnet (180) may be movable with the movement of the slider (150). One sensing element of the plurality of sensing elements (190) may be positioned space apart from the other sensing element of the plurality of sensing elements (190). The sensing elements (190) may be configured to generate an output signal corresponding to detection of the magnetic flux generated by the magnet (190) in response to displacement of the slider (150) between the first position and the second position. The output signal corresponds to the position of the slider (150) in one of the first position and the second position. In an embodiment, the sensing elements (190) may be hall effect sensors. The hall sensors (190) detect the position of the magnet (180), generate electronic signals, and transfer the generated signals to the electronic control unit. Based on the electronic signals and received inputs from the user, the electronic control unit operates the steering lock (500) to lock and unlock the steering of the vehicle.
[0043] In an operation, when the user provides input in the form of electronic signals, the electronic control unit detects the authentication of the user. On successful authentication, the electronic control unit operates the electric motor (40) that in turn
rotates the output shaft (50) and the output gear (70). Based on the rotation of the output gear (70), the first and second rotary members (110, 120) actuate the cam (130). The cam (130) further actuates the slider (150) against the biasing force of the resilient member (150) in order to displace the lock bar (170). Due to the displacement of the lock bar (170), the locking operation of the steering may be performed. To unlock the steering, the user provides inputs in the form of electronic signals, the electronic control unit detects the position of the slider (150) and accordingly operates the electric motor (40) for the movement of the output shaft and the output gear in a reverse direction. Based on the rotational motion of the electric motor (40), the first and second rotary members operate the cam. Due to the movement of the cam, the slider (150) returns to its biased position, and accordingly the lock bar displaces in a reverse direction, thereby the unlocking operation of the steering may be performed.
[0044] In accordance with the present disclosure, the steering lock (500), as explained in the above paragraphs, ensures smooth locking and unlocking operations of the steering of the vehicle, even at low temperature (e.g. -20°C). Further, the steering lock (500), of the present disclosure ensures the performing locking and unlocking operations of the steering of the vehicle, quickly. Further, the steering lock (500) of the present disclosure requires less space for mounting within the vehicle. Furthermore, the steering lock (500) of the present disclosure may be simple, easy to manufacture, and economical.
