Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、自動車などに使用されるスライド操作部材の安全作動機構に関し、例えばAT車のシフトレバーを安全性よく作動させるためのものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
このようなスライド操作部材の安全作動機構としては、スライド操作部材と、このスライド操作部材のスライド方向と略直交方向に突出及び後退可能にされており、バネにより突出方向に付勢され通電により前記バネの突出付勢方向に逆らって後退するプランジャをもつソレノイドとを備え、前記ソレノイドへの通電時に前記プランジャの先端は前記スライド操作部材と干渉せず、前記ソレノイドへの非通電時に前記プランジャの先端は前記スライド操作部材と干渉するものが普通である。そしてこの機構により、プランジャの通電時にのみスライド操作部材の押し込み操作を可能としている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、前記例では、スライド操作部材の押し込み操作を行いたいときに、あらかじめブレーキを踏むと、その踏み込みと連動して通電動作されるソレノイドの作動音(カチッという音)が気になるものである。この音はソレノイドのプランジャがソレノイドを構成するヨークなどに衝突する際に発生する金属的な衝撃音である。この衝撃音を和らげるためにゴムなどの緩衝材をプランジャに装着する静音ソレノイドが存在するが、衝撃音を和らげることはできても完全に排除することは困難であった。本発明はこのような解決すべき課題を鑑み、通常の操作ではソレノイド作動音が発生しないスライド操作部材の安全作動機構を提供することを目的とする。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明を要約すると、段差が形成されたスライド操作部材と、前記段差側と対向配置され前記スライド操作部材のスライド方向と略直交方向に突出及び後退可能にされており、バネにより突出方向に付勢され通電により前記バネの突出付勢方向に逆らって後退するプランジャをもつソレノイドとを備え、前記ソレノイドへの通電時に前記プランジャの先端は前記段差と干渉せず、前記ソレノイドへの非通電時に前記プランジャの先端は前記段差と干渉するものであって、前記段差の低部側は前記スライド操作部材の押し込み方向において徐々に前記プランジャ側に近づく傾斜面として形成されたスライド操作部材の安全作動機構である。
【0005】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に、本発明の実施形態を説明するが、それはあくまで本発明に基づいて採択された例示的な実施形態であり、本発明をその実施形態に特有な事項に基づいて限定解釈してはならず、本発明の技術的範囲は、請求項に示した事項さらにはその事項と実質的に等価である事項に基づいて定めなければならない。
【0006】
図示の実施形態は、段差1が形成されたスライド操作部材2と、前記段差1側と対向配置され前記スライド操作部材2のスライド方向(矢印方向)と略直交方向に突出及び後退可能にされており、バネ3により突出方向に付勢され通電により前記バネ3の突出付勢方向に逆らって後退するプランジャ4をもつソレノイド5とを備え、前記ソレノイド5への通電時に前記プランジャ4の先端は前記段差1と干渉せず、前記ソレノイド5への非通電時に前記プランジャ4の先端は前記段差1と干渉するものであって、前記段差1の低部側は前記スライド操作部材2の押し込み方向において徐々に前記プランジャ4側に近づく傾斜面1aとして形成されたスライド操作部材の安全作動機構である。
【0007】
さらに詳述すれば、スライド操作部材2は例えば図外の解除ボタンを押し込むと矢印方向に動こうとする。プランジャ4の先端寄りには鍔部6があり、鍔部6とソレノイド5のヨークとなる磁性金属製のケース7の前面との間に前記バネ3が挟み込まれる。そして、ケース7の内部にはコイル8がプランジャ4を囲むように配置されている。また、図2(B)に示すように、スライド操作部材2の両側はガイド部材9、9でガイドされている。
【0008】
図1(A)はスライド操作部材2の非操作時を示す。この状態ではプランジャ4は傾斜面1aの最高面にて押し込まれて後退している。ここで、スライド操作部材2の押し込み操作を行いたいときに、あらかじめブレーキを踏むことによりソレノイド5に通電されても、プランジャ4はすでに押し込まれた状態であるので、その作動音が発生しない。次に、スライド操作部材2を押し込むと、プランジャ4は通電により押し込まれた状態のままであるため、プランジャ4の先端は段差1(の壁)とは干渉せず、図1(B)の状態になる。
【0009】
図1(A)の状態で、ブレーキを踏まずにスライド操作部材2の押し込み操作を行おうとした場合は図2(A)の状態になる。すなわち、プランジャ4の先端はバネ3の突出付勢力で傾斜面1aを滑って前進するため、段差1(の壁)と干渉してしまい、スライド操作部材2の押し込み操作ができなくなるという安全性が発揮される。なお、図2(A)の状態でブレーキを踏み込むとソレノイド5の作動音は発生するが、そのような場合はよほど慌てて使用している時以外は有り得ないものである。
【0010】
かくして本実施形態によれば、通常の操作ではソレノイド作動音が発生しないスライド操作部材の安全作動機構を提供できた。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a safe operation mechanism of a slide operation member used for an automobile or the like, and for example, to operate a shift lever of an AT car with high safety.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As such a safe operation mechanism of the slide operation member, a slide operation member and a projecting and retreating direction substantially perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slide operation member are made possible. A solenoid having a plunger that retreats against the urging direction of the spring, the tip of the plunger does not interfere with the slide operation member when the solenoid is energized, and the tip of the plunger does not energize the solenoid when the solenoid is de-energized. Generally interferes with the slide operation member. This mechanism enables the slide operation member to be pushed only when the plunger is energized.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the above-described example, if the brake is depressed in advance when the push operation of the slide operation member is to be performed, the operation noise (click) of the solenoid that is energized in conjunction with the depression is anxious. . This sound is a metallic impact sound generated when the plunger of the solenoid collides with a yoke or the like constituting the solenoid. Although there is a silent solenoid in which a cushioning material such as rubber is attached to the plunger to reduce the impact noise, it has been difficult to completely eliminate the impact noise even if it can be alleviated. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a safe operation mechanism of a slide operation member that does not generate a solenoid operation sound in a normal operation.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
To summarize the present invention, a slide operation member having a step is provided, and the slide operation member is disposed to face the step side so as to be able to protrude and retreat in a direction substantially orthogonal to a sliding direction of the slide operation member, and is attached in a protruding direction by a spring. A solenoid having a plunger which is energized and retreats against the urging direction of the spring when energized. The tip of the plunger interferes with the step, and the lower side of the step is a slide operating member safety operating mechanism formed as an inclined surface that gradually approaches the plunger side in the pushing direction of the slide operating member. is there.
[0005]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. However, it is an exemplary embodiment adopted based on the present invention, and the present invention should not be interpreted in a limited manner based on matters specific to the embodiment. Instead, the technical scope of the present invention should be determined on the basis of the matters stated in the claims and matters substantially equivalent to the matters.
[0006]
In the illustrated embodiment, a slide operation member 2 having a step 1 is provided, and the slide operation member 2 is disposed so as to face the side of the step 1 so as to be able to protrude and retreat in a direction substantially perpendicular to a sliding direction (arrow direction) of the slide operation member 2. A solenoid 5 having a plunger 4 which is urged in the projecting direction by the spring 3 and retreats against the projecting and urged direction of the spring 3 when energized, and the tip of the plunger 4 is energized when the solenoid 5 is energized. The tip of the plunger 4 interferes with the step 1 when the solenoid 5 is not energized without interfering with the step 1, and the lower side of the step 1 gradually moves in the pushing direction of the slide operation member 2. Is a safe operation mechanism of a slide operation member formed as an inclined surface 1a approaching the plunger 4 side.
[0007]
More specifically, the slide operation member 2 tends to move in the direction of the arrow when, for example, a release button (not shown) is pressed. A flange 6 is provided near the tip of the plunger 4, and the spring 3 is sandwiched between the flange 6 and a front surface of a magnetic metal case 7 serving as a yoke for the solenoid 5. A coil 8 is arranged inside the case 7 so as to surround the plunger 4. Further, as shown in FIG. 2B, both sides of the slide operation member 2 are guided by guide members 9 and 9.
[0008]
FIG. 1A shows a state where the slide operation member 2 is not operated. In this state, the plunger 4 is pushed back on the highest surface of the inclined surface 1a and retreats. Here, even when the solenoid 5 is energized by depressing the brake in advance when the push operation of the slide operation member 2 is desired to be performed, the operating sound is not generated because the plunger 4 is already pushed. Next, when the slide operation member 2 is pushed in, the plunger 4 remains in the pushed-in state by energization, so that the tip of the plunger 4 does not interfere with (the wall of) the step 1 and the state shown in FIG. become.
[0009]
In the state of FIG. 1 (A), when the pushing operation of the slide operation member 2 is performed without stepping on the brake, the state of FIG. 2 (A) is reached. That is, the tip of the plunger 4 slides forward on the inclined surface 1 a by the urging force of the spring 3, and thus interferes with (the wall of) the step 1, so that it is impossible to push the slide operation member 2. Be demonstrated. When the brake is depressed in the state shown in FIG. 2A, the operation sound of the solenoid 5 is generated, but in such a case, it is impossible to do so except when the user is in a hurry to use.
[0010]
Thus, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a safe operation mechanism of the slide operation member that does not generate a solenoid operation sound in a normal operation.
