Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle door outside handle that is attached to a vehicle door and is operated when a user mainly opens the door.

Conventionally, a handle member gripped by a user in a vehicle door outside handle has been provided with, for example, a rotation shaft of the handle member on the front side of the vehicle, and when the user grips and pulls the handle member, the handle member The rear side of the vehicle is pulled out, the door lock is released, and the user can open the door.
Further, the handle member is urged in the door direction, and when the user does not touch the handle member, the urged position is maintained and the door lock state is maintained.
However, since the handle member is biased in the door direction, when the user pulls the handle member and pulls out the rear side of the vehicle with respect to the handle member, the handle member is instantly restored by the biasing force. May return to the position (the position most rotated in the urging direction), and an unpleasant hitting sound may be generated.
Various methods can be considered to suppress this unpleasant sound, but the urging force cannot be weakened. This is because, for example, when the vehicle is traveling at high speed, an external force in the direction of pulling out the handle member works due to an airflow generated by the high-speed travel, and it is necessary to bias the handle member with a force larger than this external force.
Therefore, in the prior art described in Patent Document 1, an outside handle for an automobile door is described in which a damper is attached to the handle member, and the return speed of the handle member is attenuated by the damper to suppress generation of an unpleasant hitting sound. ing. In this prior art, in a stationary state where the user does not touch the handle member, the handle member is urged by the urging force and the damper does not function, so that the handle member is returned to its original position (attached without weakening the urging force. It is possible to appropriately attenuate only the return speed when returning to the position most rotated in the urging direction.

In recent vehicles, environmental performance (especially fuel efficiency) is emphasized, and all parts are required to be smaller and lighter.
In the prior art described in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to add a damper and a crank and a rod for operating the damper, and the number of relatively large parts such as the damper and the rod increases, so that the structure is very high. This is not preferable because it becomes complicated and increases in mass, size (necessary space), and the like.
The present invention was devised in view of the above points, and reduces the return speed of the handle member with a simpler structure by suppressing an increase in mass and size, thereby generating an unpleasant hitting sound. It is an object to provide a vehicle door outside handle that can be suppressed.

In order to solve the above problems, the vehicle door outside handle according to the present invention takes the following means.

Use the repulsive force of the magnet to reduce it. For this reason, since comparatively large components, such as a damper and a rod, are not required, the increase in mass and a size can be suppressed. Moreover, the structure of the magnet can be made simpler than the mechanical damper.

Therefore, the return speed reduction means can be appropriately realized.

  Next, a third invention of the present invention is the vehicle door outside handle according to the second invention, wherein the handle member is rotated by the biasing member in a direction opposite to the biasing direction. Power generation means for generating electric power according to the moving speed when returning from the position to the position most rotated in the biasing direction is provided, and the electromagnet is excited by the current generated by the power generation means.

  In the third aspect of the invention, since no power source is required by having the power generation means, wiring from a power source such as an in-vehicle battery is unnecessary, the structure can be simplified, and the increase in mass and size can be achieved. Can be suppressed more.

  Next, a fourth invention of the present invention is the vehicle door outside handle according to the third invention, wherein the power generation means is provided on the other end side of the handle member and the base member. Yes.

Since the handle member rotates about the rotation axis set on the one end side of the base member, the moving speed at the time of rotation is greater on the other end side than on the one end side.
In the fourth aspect of the invention, by providing the power generation means on the other end side, it is possible to increase the amount of power generation compared to the case where the power generation means is provided on the one end side, and the repulsive force of the electromagnet is reduced. Can be larger.

  Next, a fifth aspect of the present invention is a vehicle door outside handle according to the second aspect of the present invention, and a rotation angle detecting means capable of detecting a rotation angle of the handle member around the rotation axis. The vehicle door outside handle according to at least one of a rotation angle of the handle member detected based on a detection signal from the rotation angle detection means or a return speed of the handle member detected based on the rotation angle. Control means for controlling a current supplied to the electromagnet from a power supply provided inside or outside.

  In the fifth aspect of the invention, the return speed reduction means can be realized with a very simple configuration. Further, since the repulsive force of the electromagnet can be adjusted from the control means according to at least one of the rotation angle or return speed of the handle member detected based on the detection signal from the rotation angle detection means, the return of the handle member can be accurately performed. Speed can be reduced.

  Next, a sixth invention of the present invention is the vehicle door outside handle according to any one of the second to fifth inventions, wherein the electromagnet and the permanent magnet are the handle member. And on the other end side of the base member.

  In the sixth aspect of the invention, the return speed of the handle member can be more effectively reduced by arranging the electromagnet and the permanent magnet at a more appropriate position.

[First embodiment (FIG. 3)]
Next, referring to FIGS. 3A to 3D, the vehicle door outside handle according to the first embodiment having return speed reduction means for reducing the return speed of the handle member 10 by the repulsive force of the magnet. The structure of 1A and 1B will be described. The return speed reduction means includes a first electromagnet 45 provided on one of the handle member 10 and the base member 20, and a first permanent magnet 46 provided on the other of the handle member 10 and the base member 20. Yes.
3A to 3D illustrate the rotation support portion 12, the arm portion 13, the power generation permanent magnet 41, and the power generation coil 42 disposed inside the handle member 10 and the base member 20 for the sake of explanation. The coil 43, the iron core 44, and the first permanent magnet 46 are indicated by solid lines, and a part of the door panel 30 is omitted.

FIG. 3A shows a state in which the handle member 10 is returned to the original position that is the position most rotated in the urging direction by the urging force of the elastic body that is the urging member.
The power generation coil 42 is provided in the vicinity of the handle main body 11 in the rotation support portion 12 and rotates around the rotation axis ZC together with the rotation support portion 12. The power generation coil 42 is connected to the coil 43.
The power generation permanent magnet 41 is, for example, a U-shaped permanent magnet, and a portion constituting an N pole or S pole is inserted into the rotation support portion 12 and the power generation coil 42, and the power generation permanent magnet 41 is a base member. 20 is fixed. Further, the power generation permanent magnet 41 is shaped to have a curved shape so as not to interfere with the power generation coil 42 that rotates about the rotation axis ZC.
The power generation permanent magnet 41 and the power generation coil 42 are moved to their original positions by the biasing force of the elastic body as a biasing member from the position where the other end in the longitudinal direction of the handle member 10 is pulled away from the door panel. This corresponds to power generation means for generating power according to the moving speed when returning to (the position most rotated in the urging direction).

The coil 43 is located in the vicinity of the arm 13 in the handle main body 11 and at a position facing the first permanent magnet 46 provided in the base member 20 (position facing the door lock state shown in FIG. 3A). The iron core 44 is inserted through the coil 43. The coil 43 and the iron core 44 form a first electromagnet 45.
The first permanent magnet 46 is provided in a position facing the first electromagnet 45 in the base member 20 (position facing the door lock state shown in FIG. 3A), and the handle member 10 is in the urging direction. When returning from the position rotated in the reverse direction to the position most rotated in the biasing direction, the magnetic pole repelling the first electromagnet 45 is directed to the first electromagnet 45 side.

The user grasps the handle member 10 from the state where the handle member 10 is returned to the position most rotated in the urging direction (the state of FIG. 3A), and the grasped handle member 10 is the base member. When pulled in a direction away from 20, the door is unlocked (the state shown in FIG. 3B), and the user can open the door.
When the user releases the handle member 10 from the state shown in FIG. 3B, the handle member 10 is most moved in the urging direction shown in FIG. 3A by the urging force of the elastic body as the urging member. The rotation starts toward the rotated position.
When the handle member 10 rotates toward the base member 20, the power generation coil 42 moves in the magnetic field of the power generation permanent magnet 41, so that an induction current is generated in the power generation coil 42, and this current is supplied to the coil 43. Thus, the first electromagnet 45 is excited. The magnetic pole of the first permanent magnet 46 is directed so as to repel the excited first electromagnet 45. However, as shown in FIG. 3B, the first electromagnet 45 and the first permanent magnet 46 are relatively When away, the repulsive force is small, and the amount of reduction in the return speed of the handle member 10 is small.

As shown in FIG. 3C, when the rotation of the handle member 10 proceeds and the handle member 10 is rotated to a position before the original position (position most rotated in the urging direction), the first electromagnet 45 is moved. And the first permanent magnet 46 become smaller and the repulsive force F becomes larger.
Further, as the return speed Vb of the handle member 10 increases, the moving speed V2 of the power generating coil 42 increases and the amount of power generated by the power generating coil 42 increases, so that the amount of power generated by the power generating coil 42 increases. The generated repulsive force F increases. When the return speed Vb of the handle member 10 decreases due to the repulsive force F, the moving speed V2 of the power generating coil 42 decreases, and the power generation amount of the power generating coil 42 decreases, and the first electromagnet 45 and the first permanent magnet 46 are reduced. The repulsive force of becomes smaller. As described above, it is possible to automatically generate an appropriate repulsive force F according to the magnitude of the return speed Vb of the handle member 10, and appropriately reduce the return speed of the handle member 10 so that the handle member 10 Generation of an unpleasant hitting sound when 10 returns to the original position (position most rotated in the biasing direction) can be suppressed.

3A to 3C, a vehicle in which the power generation coil 42 and the power generation permanent magnet 41 are provided in the vicinity of the rotation support portion 12 on the one end side in the longitudinal direction of the handle member 10. The door outside handle 1A is shown as an example. As shown in the example of FIG. 3D, the power generating coil 42 and the power generating permanent magnet 41 are connected to the arm portion on the other side in the longitudinal direction of the handle member 10. A vehicle door outside handle 1 </ b> C provided in the vicinity of 13 may be configured.
In the example shown in FIG. 3D, the return speed of the handle member 10 is the same speed because the power generating coil 42 is located farther from the rotation axis ZC than in the examples shown in FIGS. Even if it is Vb, the moving speed V3 of the power generating coil 42 shown in FIG. 3D is higher than the moving speed V2 of the power generating coil 42 shown in FIG. Can be obtained.

● [Second Embodiment (FIG. 4)]
Next, referring to FIGS. 4A to 4C, the vehicle door outside handle according to the second embodiment having return speed reduction means for reducing the return speed of the handle member 10 by the repulsive force of the magnet. The structure of 1C will be described. The return speed reducing means includes a second electromagnet 55 provided on one of the handle member 10 and the base member 20 and a second permanent magnet 56 provided on the other of the handle member 10 and the base member 20. Yes.
4 (A) to 4 (C) show the rotation support portion 12, the arm portion 13, the rotation angle detection means 51, the coil 53, and the iron core disposed inside the handle member 10 and the base member 20 for the sake of explanation. 54, the second permanent magnet 56 is indicated by a solid line. Although the control means 57 may be newly provided, control and input / output described in the present embodiment are added by using existing control means such as control means for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle. Also good.
The structure of the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C is different from the structure of the first embodiment shown in FIGS. A difference is that a rotation angle detecting means 51, a control means 57, and a power source 58 are provided instead of the power generating coil. The second electromagnet 55 including the coil 53 and the iron core 54 is the same as the first electromagnet 45 including the coil 43 and the iron core 44, and the second permanent magnet 56 is the same as the first permanent magnet 46. Hereinafter, differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described.
The power source 58 may be provided inside the vehicle door outside handle, or may be provided outside the vehicle door outside handle. When the power source 58 is provided outside, an in-vehicle battery mounted on the vehicle can be used as the power source 58.

As shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C, the rotation angle detection means 51 is provided in the vicinity of the rotation axis ZC and controls a detection signal corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle member 10 with respect to the base member 20. It outputs to the means 57.
Based on the detection signal from the rotation angle detection unit 51, the control unit 57 rotates the handle member 10 with respect to the base member 20 (the rotation angle θ1 in the example of FIG. 4B and the rotation in the example of FIG. 4C). It is possible to detect the angle θ2).
Further, the control means 57 determines the return speed of the handle member 10 (FIGS. 4B and 4C) based on the change amount (Δθ) of the rotation angle and the distance L from the rotation axis ZC at a predetermined time interval (ΔT). Return speeds Va and Vb) can be detected. Further, the control means 57 can detect the turning direction of the handle member 10 based on the changing direction of the rotation angle.

For example, the control means 57 controls the current supplied to the second electromagnet 55 (coil 53) in accordance with the rotation angle of the handle member 10 detected based on the detection signal from the rotation angle detection means 51, and FIG. The return speed when returning from the position of the handle member 10 shown in FIG. 4 to the position (original position) of the handle member 10 shown in FIG.
In this case, when the control means 57 determines that the rotation angle θ1 of the handle member 10 is equal to or larger than the first predetermined angle as shown in FIG. 4B, the current is supplied from the power source 58 to the second electromagnet 55. To stop.
When the control unit 57 determines that the rotation angle θ2 of the handle member 10 is equal to or smaller than the second predetermined angle (first predetermined angle> second predetermined angle) as shown in FIG. A corresponding current is supplied from the power source 58 to the second electromagnet 55 to generate a repulsive force F between the second electromagnet 55 and the second permanent magnet 56, and the return speed Vb of the handle member 10 shown in FIG. Reduce.
When the control unit 57 determines that the detected rotation angle becomes zero and the handle member 10 has returned to the original position shown in FIG. 4A (the position most rotated in the urging direction), the power source 58 The supply of current to the second electromagnet 55 is stopped.

For example, the control unit 57 detects the return speed (and the rotation direction) of the handle member 10 based on the rotation angle of the handle member 10 detected using the detection signal from the rotation angle detection unit 51, and detects the detected return speed ( And the supply current to the second electromagnet 55 (coil 53) according to the return direction), the position of the handle member 10 shown in FIG. 4A (from the position of the handle member 10 shown in FIG. 4B) ( The return speed when returning to the original position can be reduced.
In this case, when the control means 57 determines that the return speed Va of the handle member 10 is equal to or lower than the first predetermined speed as shown in FIG. 4B, the current is supplied from the power source 58 to the second electromagnet 55. To stop.
When the control means 57 determines that the return speed Vb of the handle member 10 is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed (first predetermined speed <second predetermined speed) as shown in FIG. A corresponding current is supplied from the power source 58 to the second electromagnet 55 to generate a repulsive force F between the second electromagnet 55 and the second permanent magnet 56, and the return speed Vb of the handle member 10 shown in FIG. Reduce.
When the control means 57 determines that the detected return speed is zero and the handle member 10 has returned to the original position shown in FIG. 4A (the position most rotated in the urging direction), the power supply 58 The supply of current to the second electromagnet 55 is stopped.
In the above description, the control unit 57 controls the supply current to the second electromagnet 55 according to the rotation angle of the handle member 10 and the second electromagnet 55 according to the return speed of the handle member 10. Although the example of the method of controlling the supply current to the above has been described, the two may be combined and controlled. Therefore, the control means 57 controls the supply current to the second electromagnet 55 according to at least one of the rotation angle of the handle member 10 or the return speed of the handle member 10.

As described above, the structure of the vehicle door outside handle 1A to 1C described in the present embodiment can appropriately reduce the return speed of the handle member 10 by the repulsive force of the magnet using an electromagnet and a permanent magnet. This is possible, and can be realized with a simpler structure by suppressing an increase in mass and size as compared with a conventional structure having a damper, a rod, and the like. And by having this structure, the return speed of the handle member 10 can be reduced while suppressing an increase in mass, size, etc., and the generation of unpleasant hitting sounds can be suppressed.
In addition, since the structure shown in the first embodiment does not require a power source by having the power generation means, wiring from a power source such as an in-vehicle battery is unnecessary, and the structure can be simplified. The increase in mass and size can be further suppressed.
In the structure shown in the second embodiment, since the repulsive force of the second electromagnet can be adjusted from the control means according to at least one of the rotation angle or the return speed of the handle member 10, the handle can be very accurately obtained. The return speed of the member can be reduced.

In the state where the handle member 10 is returned to the most rotated position in the urging direction (the state shown in FIGS. 3A and 4A), the first electromagnet 45 (or the second electromagnet 55) is moved to the position. Even if the supply of current is stopped, the first permanent magnet 46 (or the second permanent magnet 56) attracts the iron core 44 (or the iron core 54), so that the elastic body that is an urging member that urges the handle member 10 is used. The biasing force can be reduced by this suction force. Thereby, even if it is an elastic body (biasing member) with smaller urging | biasing force than before, the wind noise by the steering wheel floating at the time of high speed driving | running can be suppressed. Further, when the urging force of the elastic body (the urging member) is reduced, the handle member 10 can be pulled with a lighter force because the attracting force by the magnet is reduced only by slightly pulling the handle member 10. Become.
In the second embodiment, current is supplied to the second electromagnet 55 so that the second electromagnet 55 and the second permanent magnet 56 repel when the handle member 10 is pulled from the state shown in FIG. In this case, the handle member 10 can be pulled very lightly.
In the conventional structure using a damper, when the user pulls the handle member, the damper becomes a resistance, and the operation force when pulling the handle member becomes heavy, which is not preferable. However, as described above, the structure of the present embodiment is more preferable than the conventional structure using a damper because the operating force when pulling the handle member can be reduced.
Further, the arrangement positions of the first electromagnet, the first permanent magnet, the second electromagnet, and the second permanent magnet may be provided on one end side (rotation support side) of the handle member and the base member. However, as shown in the present embodiment, it is more effective to provide the handle member and the base member on the other end side (arm portion side) because the distance from the rotation support portion which is a fulcrum is larger. In addition, it is possible to reduce the return speed of the handle member, which is more preferable.
