Description
1 2368095 ACTUATOR UNIT This application is divided from Application No
0031123 3.
The present invention relates to a motorized actuator unit particularly although not exclusively for displacing a lock lever of a vehicle door latch apparatus between a locked position and an unlocked position.
Conventionally, various actuator units which are known for displacing a change-over member between a first position and a second position by motor power.
One which is closely related to that of the present invention is shown in FIGS 15 to 17 This actuator unit A is provided with a cylindrical worm D attached to a motor shaft C of a motor B, and a worm wheel E engaged with the cylindrical worm D (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No 08-144602 and US 5,564,308) An example of the change-over member is a lock lever of a vehicle door latch apparatus which is displaced between a locked position and an unlocked position.
The actuator unit A of this type includes a cam groove G defined on a top surface of the worm wheel E, and a rotational lever J fixed to an output shaft F and having a contact pin H engaged with the cam groove G for transmitting a rotational force of the worm wheel E to the output shaft F The worm wheel E is normally held in a neutral position by a spring force of a return spring (not shown) The cam groove G and the contact pin H also function as a clutch mechanism which does not transmit rotation of the rotational lever J to the worm wheel E when the worm wheel E is located on the neutral position.
A lock lever K is fixed to an outer end of the output shaft F which projects outside a housing M of the unit.
The conventional actuator unit A has the disadvantage that the arc of movement of the rotational lever J is rather small The available movement of the contact pin H of the rotational lever J is limited by the width of the cam groove G which is not longer than the radius of the worm wheel E In FIG 15, when the diameter of the worm wheel E is considered to be " 40 ", the width of the cam groove G is about " 12 " and the width of the contact pin H is about " 3 " Therefore, the moving amount of the contact pin H is about " 9 " which is merely a quarter of the diameter of the worm wheel E, and the arc of movement of the rotational lever J is considered to be about 1120 degrees" If the worm wheel E and the rotational lever J are coupled to each other using a tooth gear coupling, it is possible to set the moving amount of the rotational lever J independently of the diameter of the worm wheel E, but the function of the clutch mechanism is lost.
Further, the conventional actuator unit A involves a second disadvantage that it is troublesome to couple the rotational lever J located inside the housing M and a lock lever (output lever) K located outside the housing M That is, the lock lever K is coupled to the exposed outer end of the output shaft F by using a typical fixing means such as a screw, an adhesive, ultrasonic welding or the like.
Further, the conventional actuator unit A involves a third disadvantage that the shape of the housing M is not appropriate The vehicle door latch apparatus and the actuator unit are mounted in a narrow space of the door or the vehicle body, so that it should be compact.
Especially, the actuator unit A to be mounted on either one of a tailgate (back door/boot lid) and a cargo space (boot) should be formed more compact FIGS 16 and 17 show the relation between a door latch apparatus N and a wall assembly P of the tailgate The wall assembly P is configured by an inner metal panel Q usually facing to the cargo space, and an outer metal panel R facing to the outside of the vehicle The thickness thereof is about cm The inner panel Q has a mounting hole T which has the size of a latch body S of the door latch apparatus N.
The latch body S is provided with a bracket V to which operation levers W such as an open lever and a lock lever or the like and the actuator unit A are attached.
The door latch apparatus N with the actuator unit A is inserted into an inside space Y of the wall assembly P through a service hole X formed in the inner panel Q, and the latch body S except flanges thereof projects to the outside via the mounting hole T, and then the latch body S is fixed to the inner panel Q by screws or the like.
the service hole X is covered by a trim panel Z Most of the above assembly operation is performed blindly and it is very troublesome.
On the contrary, if the door latch apparatus N is not provided with the actuator unit A, the latch apparatus N is capable of being directly mounted on the mounting hole T by inserting the bracket V and the lever group W into the inner space Y through the mounting hole T, so that the assembly operation becomes very easy.
This means that the shape and size of the conventional actuator unit A are not suitable to pass through the mounting hole T.
An object of one aspect of the present invention is to provide an actuator unit which is capable of setting a moving amount (rotational amount) of a rotational lever independents of the of a worm wheel.
An object of another aspect of the present invention is to provide an actuator unit which is capable of coupling a rotational lever located inside a housing and a lock lever located outside the housing, without using a fixing means such as a screw, an adhesive or ultrasonic welding.
An object of yet a further aspect of the invention is to provide an actuator unit which has a shape suitable for passing through a mounting hole of a wall assembly.

The rotational lever 13 is rotated by the motor power of the motor 3 between the locked position L shown in FIG 1 and the unlocked position U shown in FIG 4 In this rotational range, a direction of the T-shaped recess 23 of the rotational lever 13 is not identical with the direction of the T-shaped shaft hole 24 of the housing 2 in order to prevent the T-head 21 from being left of f the recess 23 '.
The housing 2 has a coupler 27 surrounding an exposed terminal 26 or the like connected to the motor 3 or the like.
The coupler 27 Is located on an opposite side of the cylindrical worm 5 with respect to the motor 3.
FIG 13 shows a door latch apparatus 29 which is designed to be attached to a wall assembly 28 (FIG 14) of either one of a cargo room (trunk room) and a tailgate (back door/trunk lid) of a vehicle As commonly known, the door latch apparatus 29 has a latch (not shown) for keeping the tallgate in a closed state by being engaged with a striker (not shown) fixed on the other of the cargo room and the tailgate, a ratchet (not shown) for holding the engagement between the latch and the striker by being engaged with the latch, and an open lever (not shown) for releasing the ratchet from the latoh so as to open the tailgate The wall assembly 28 of the cargo room or the tailgate comprises an inner metal panel 30 facing to the cargo room and an outer metal panel 31 facing the outside of the vehicle.
The latch apparatus 29 has a bracket 34 which is inserted into an inside space 33 of the wall assembly 28 through a mounting hole 32 formed on the inner metal panel 30 of the wall assembly 28 The bracket 34 is provided with a lock lever 35 which is displaceable between the looked position for disenabling an opening operation of the open lever and the unlocked position for enabling the opening operation of the open lever The actuator 1 is also attached to the bracket 34.
The lock lever 35 is coupled to the output lever 19 of the actuator 1, S O that the lock lever 35 can be displaced between the locked position and the unlocked position by the rotation of the output lever 19 Alternatively, it is also possible that the output lever 19 and the lock lever 35 are united to form a single component.
As shown in FIGS 1 and 11, the housing 2 has a narrow portion in width in which the motor 3 is accommodated, and the housing is generally inflectional in a circular arc or a crescent On this account, the housing 2 has a hollow portion 36 which is concave toward the motor 3 This shape is obviously different from the shape of the conventional housing M shown in FIG 15 The shape of the housing 2 according to the present invention Is achieved by disposing the attaching shaft 14 (the output shaft 20) of the rotational lever 13 on the opposite side of the wheel shaft 7 of the worm wheel 6 with respect to the cylindrical worm 5.
When assembling the actuator unit 1, at first, the motor 3, the cylindrical worm 5, the worm wheel 6 and the rotational lever 13 or the like are attached to the base case 2 A of the housing Z Next, the T-head 21 of the output lever 19 (lock lever 35) is inserted into the T-head shaft hole 24 formed on the cover case 2 B of the housing 2, and after the output lever 19 is rotated so as to match the direction of the T-head 21 with that of the T-head recess 23, the cover case 2 B is attached to the base case 2 A Thereby, the T-head 21 is engaged with the T-head recess 23 of the rotational lever 13, and at the same time the output lever 19 is prevented from being left off the cover case 2 B by engagement of the protrusions 22, 22 of the T-head 21 and the cover case 2 B. Accordingly, the output lever 19 is completely coupled to the rotational lever 13 On this account, a traditional fixing means such as a screw an adhesive and a supersonic deposit means or the like is not needed in order to couple the output.
lever 19 and the rotational lever 13 Then, as shown in FIG.
13, the actuator unit 1 is fixed to the bracket 34 of the door latch apparatus 29, and the output lever 19 is coupled to the lock lever 35 of the door latch apparatus 29.
The actuator unit 1 assembled as described above, has a circular arc shape having the hollow portion 36 as a center.
Therefore, by inserting the coupler 27 in the mounting hole 32 of the wall assembly 28 as shown in FIG 14 and rotating the actuator unit 1 around the hollow portion 36, it is possible to pass the actuator unit 1 through the mounting hole 32 without many difficulties even if the mounting hole 32 is rather small.
Thus, since the actuator unit 1 has a shape which is suitable for passing through the rather small mounting hole 32, the door latch apparatus 29 is capable of being inserted in the inside space 33 of the wall assembly 28 without difficulties through the mounting hole 32 of the wall assembly 28 even after the actuator unit 1 is attached to the door latch apparatus 29.
Next, the operation of the actuator unit 1 will be explained FIGS 1 and 9 show the state where the worm-wheel 6 is held on the neutral position by the spring force of the return spring 8 and the rotational lever 13 is located on the locked position L In this state, the first motor side gear tooth 10 of the output gear 9 abuts against the first lever side gear tooth 16 B of the rotational lever 13, but the second.
and third motor side gear teeth 11 A, 11 B, 12 A, 12 B of the output gear 9 are away from the rotational locus of the toothed portion 15 Therefore, when rotating the rotational lever 13 counterclockwise, in the states shown in FIG 1 and 9, by moving the lock lever 35 (output lever 19) in the unlocking direction, the rotational lever 13 is displaced to the unlocked position U shown in FIGS 4 and 5 without rotating the output gear 9 (worm wheel 6) In FIGS 4 and 5, when the rotational lever 13 is rotated in the locking direction, the rotational lever 13 is displaced to the locked position L without rotating the output gear 9 Such a mechanism Is a clutch mechanism of the actuator unit 1.
FIGS 5 to 9 show changes of the engagement state between the output gear 9 and the toothed portion 15 by turns when the worm wheel 6 is rotated in the locking direction by the motor 3 In the unlocked state in FIG 5, when rotating the worm wheel 6 counterclockwise by the locking rotation of the motor 3, the first motor side gear tooth 10 of the output gear 9 pushes the first lever side gear tooth 16 A to rotate the rotational lever 13 clockwise slightly, the second motor side gear tooth li B then abuts against the second lever side gear tooth 17 to further rotate the rotational lever 13 clockwise, as shown in FIG 6 Then, as shown in FIG 7, the third motor side gear tooth 12 B of the output gear 9 comes into contact with the third lever side teeth 18 to rotate the rotational lever 13 clockwise, thereby the rotational lever 13 is switched to the locked position L as shown In FIG 8 When deenergizing the motor 3 by the completion of the Oisplacement of the rotational lever 13 to the looked position L, the worm wheel 6 is reversely rotated by the spring force of the return spring 8 to be returned to the neutral position as shown in FIG 9, and the first motor side gear tooth 10 abuts just against the first lever side gear tooth 16 B. FIGS 1 to 4 show changes of the engagement state between the output gear 9 and the toothed portion 15 by turns when the worm wheel 6 is rotated in the unlocking direction by the motor 3 In the locked state in FIG 1, when rotating the worm wheel 6 clockwise by the unlocking rotation of the motor 3, the first motor side gear tooth 10 of the output gear 9 pushes the first lever side gear tooth 16 B to rotate the rotational lever 13 counterclockwise slightly, the third motor side gear tooth 12 A then abuts against the third lever side gear tooth 18 to further rotate the rotational lever 13 counterclockwise, as shown in FIG 2 Then, the second motor side gear tooth 11 A abuts against the second lever side gear tooth 17 to displace the rotational lever 13 to the unlocked position U, as shown in FIG 3 When deenergizing the motor 3 by the completion of the displacement of the rotational lever 13 to the unlocked 14 position U the worm wheel 6 is reversely rotated by the spring force of the return spring 8 to be returned to the neutral position as shown in FIG 4, and the first motor side gear tooth 10 abuts just against the first lever side gear tooth 16 A.
As being obvious from the above explanation, the worm wheel 6 and the rotational lever 13 of the actuator unit 1 according to the present invention, are coupled each other by two gear members 9 and 15 Therefore, it is possible to set the moving amount (rotational amount) of the rotational lever 13 without depending on the diameter of the worm wheel 6.
However, it is noted that the diameter of the worm wheel 6 influences on magnitude of the torque to rotate the rotational lever 13 The actuator unit 1 shown in FIG 1 is designed in consideration of the rotational torque of the rotational lever 13 In the actuator unit 1 of FIG 1, when the diameter of the worm wheel 6 is U 40 m, the moving amount of the rotational lever 13 becomes about 012 and the rotational angle of the rotational lever 13 becomes about " 29 degrees However, the diameter of the worm wheel 6 is capable of being changed without influencing on the rotational amount of the rotational lever 13 so that the estimated values of the rotational angle and the rotational amount of the rotational lever 13 with respect of the worm wheel 6 are only served as a reference.
