Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle handle device.

  As a handle device configured by connecting a movable handle to a fixed handle fixed to a door panel of a vehicle, one described in Patent Document 1 is known.

  In this conventional example, the movable handle is fitted to a fixed handle having a U-shaped cross section and is advanced and retracted from the fitting portion.

Japanese Utility Model No. 6-10041

  However, since the movable handle in the above-described conventional example is formed in a lever shape and protrudes from the center in the width direction of the fixed handle, the user is reminded of a grip operation.

  As a result, when the user performs the door opening operation, the user first holds the handle portion of the handle and rotates the movable handle to unlock the door lock device, and then the door opening operation force is applied to the entire handle. It is easy to perform a two-step operation of giving a damaging factor, which causes a deterioration in operability.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle handle device that is easy to use.

According to the present invention, the object is
A fixed handle 2 fixed to the door 1 of the vehicle;
A movable handle 3 coupled to the fixed handle 2;
A door handle device for a vehicle that provides a handle for an opening operation of the door 1 and operates a door lock device 4 in the door 1 by a rotation operation to the movable handle 3.
This is achieved by providing a vehicle door handle device in which the entire surface of the handle portion facing the door 1 surface is occupied exclusively by the movable handle 3.

  The door handle device includes a fixed handle 2 fixed to the door 1 and a movable handle 3 for performing unlocking operation of the door lock device 4 in the door 1 by rotating operation.

  In the present invention in which a movable handle is disposed on the entire surface of the handle portion facing the door 1 surface, which is a handle for opening the door 1, the back surface (panel facing surface) of the fixed handle 2 is covered by the movable handle 3. In addition, the exclusive volume of the entire handle portion of the movable handle 3 is increased.

  For this reason, the movable handle 3 is less likely to be recognized as an actuating lever protruding from the fixed handle 2, and the unlocking operation by the gripping operation and the door 1 opening operation by pulling the handle are not distinguished from each other. Since only the operation of pulling the entire movable handle 3 by placing the fingertip on the part is easily performed, the unlocking operation and the door 1 opening operation are performed by a series of operations, and the operability is improved.

As another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object,
A fixed handle 2 fixed to the door 1 of the vehicle;
A movable handle 3 coupled to the fixed handle 2;
A door handle device for a vehicle that provides a handle at the time of opening the door 1 and operates the door lock device 4 in the door 1 by rotating the movable handle 3 from an initial rotation position to an operation rotation position.
The movable handle 3 can constitute a door handle device for a vehicle that serves as a handle for an opening operation of the door 1 independently without cooperating with the fixed handle 2 in the operation rotation position.

  In the present invention, the movable handle 3 is formed as a handle when the door 1 is opened. In the above-described conventional example, when the movable handle 3 is pulled with a fingertip, the finger comes into contact with the fixed handle 2 at a predetermined angle, and thereafter, the operation force is mainly transmitted to the fixed handle 2 to open the door 1. In contrast, the door 1 is unlocked and the door 1 is opened only by operating the movable handle 3 without touching the fixed handle 2 while the fingertip is hung on the handle portion. Since the user is reminded of the operation by the continuous motion, the two-step operation including the grip motion is not performed, and the operability is improved.

  In order to enable the door 1 opening operation only by operating the movable handle 3 moved to the end position of the rotation stroke, the handle corresponding portion of the fixed handle 2 is covered at the end position of the stroke, or the stroke end of the movable handle 3 is reached. This can be realized by making the movable handle 3 project greatly from the handle corresponding portion of the fixed handle 2 at the position.

As another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object,
The movable handle 3 can constitute a door handle device for a vehicle that fits around the fixed handle 2 at least at a handle portion by a user when the door 1 is opened.

  The movable handle 3 suffices if it is interposed between the fixed handle 2 and the panel surface of the door 1 at the handle portion. However, when the movable handle 3 is externally fitted to the fixed handle 2 as in the present invention, A sense of unity as a whole handle occurs.

in this case,
When the movable handle 3 is configured such that at least a part of the free end edge of the outer fitting portion to the fixed handle 2 protrudes from the surface of the fixed handle 2 when the door 1 is opened, the protruding portion at the time of operation is a grip on the handle. Since the feeling of resistance to the operation is increased, the user can hesitate to operate the handle only by the pulling operation without performing the gripping operation.

Furthermore, as another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object,
One end of the movable handle 3 is pivotally supported by a hinge piece 5 that protrudes from one end of the fixed handle 2 and is inserted into the door 1, and an end that extends to the other end beyond the handle is fixed. A vehicle door handle device supported by an output lever 7 rotatably connected to a mounting block portion 6 formed on the handle 2 can be configured.

  In the present invention, a hinge piece 5 and an attachment block portion 6 are provided at both ends of the fixed handle 2, and an output lever 7 is rotatably connected to the attachment block portion 6. One end of the movable handle 3 is pivotally supported by the hinge piece 5 and the other end is supported by the output lever 7. When the handle portion formed at the intermediate portion is pulled, the output lever 7 rotates in the pre-operation stage. The unlocking operation of the door lock device 4 is performed by being driven, and then the opening operation for the unlocked door 1 is continuously performed.

  In the present invention in which one end of the movable handle 3 is pivotally supported on the distal end portion of the fixed handle 2 and the handle portion is disposed in the middle of the contact portion with the output lever 7, the arm length of the movable handle 3 is as long as possible. Therefore, the operation force for unlocking is reduced, and the operability is improved.

  According to the present invention, the unlocking and door opening operations can be performed only by the operation of putting the fingertip on the handle portion and pulling the entire movable handle, so that the operability can be improved.

  As shown in FIG. 1 and subsequent figures, the door handle device is integrally formed by connecting a fixed handle 2 to a movable handle 3, an output lever 7, a counterweight 8, and a bell crank 9, and the left side in FIG. 2 (hereinafter referred to as “vertical” and “front-back” directions based on the mounting orientation on the vehicle, and the downward direction in FIG. 2 is “surface side”, and vice versa. The side is referred to as the “back side”). As shown in FIG. 2, the door panel 1 is formed with a recess 1 a for securing a hand insertion space between the door panel 1 and the door panel 1 when the door 1 is opened.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the fixed handle 2 has a panel mounting surface 2 a at the front and rear ends, and a handle-corresponding portion 2 b that is raised from the surface of the door panel 1 corresponding to the recess 1 a of the door panel 1 at the center. Provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the fixing handle 2 is fixed to the door 1 by screwing a fixing block 2c formed at the rear end to the door panel 1 and an appropriate clip member (not shown) at the front end. It is done with wearing. The fixing block 2c is provided with a screw insertion hole 2d used for screwing to the door panel 1.

  One end of the movable handle 3 is rotatably supported by a hinge piece 5 that protrudes from the front end of the fixed handle 2 and enters the door 1 while being fixed to the door 1.

  The movable handle 3 has a length extending from the connection end with the fixed handle 2 to the rear end portion of the fixed handle 2 beyond the handle portion, and the intermediate portion is connected to the handle corresponding portion 2b of the fixed handle 2. A corresponding handle portion 3a is formed.

  Further, a stopper boss 3b is provided at the rear end of the movable handle 3 so as to protrude in the vertical direction from the upper and lower edges (see FIGS. 7 and 8). 5 rotates between the initial rotation position of FIG. 5 brought into contact with the stopper 2e of the handle 2 and the operation rotation position of FIG. 6 determined by the operation rotation position of the output lever 7 described later.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, in order to rotate the movable handle 3 along a predetermined locus, the movable handle 3 is formed with a guide protrusion 3 c that fits in a guide groove 2 f provided in the fixed handle 2. The

  The handle portion 3a of the movable handle 3 configured as described above is provided with a fitting protrusion 10 having both side edges protruding from the surface side. As shown in FIG. 9, the fitting protrusion 10 is externally fitted to the handle corresponding portion 2 b of the fixed handle 2 and provides a handle portion of the handle device in the fitted state.

  On the other hand, in order to connect the output lever 7, the counterweight 8, and the bell crank 9, a mounting block portion 6 projects from the rear end portion of the fixed handle 2 toward the back surface.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the mounting block portion 6 has a lever mounting hole 6a that is substantially parallel to the surface of the panel 1 and extends in the vertical direction, and is orthogonal to the lever mounting hole 6a as shown in FIG. The bell crank mounting hole 6b extending in the front and back direction is opened.

  The output lever 7 is formed in a substantially L shape with a driven piece 7a projecting forward at one end and a working piece 7c having a fork-shaped portion 7b at the tip and projecting to the back side. In the vicinity of the part, it is rotatably connected around a rotating shaft fixed to the lever mounting hole 6a.

  As shown in FIG. 5, when the output lever 7 is in the mounted state, the tip of the driven piece 7a corresponds to a pushing protrusion 3d that protrudes from the rear end of the movable handle 3 to the surface side. It rotates between the initial rotation position determined by the rotation position and the operation rotation position where the driven piece 7a contacts the lever stopper portion 2g formed on the fixed handle 2.

  The counterweight 8 is pivotally supported coaxially with the output lever 7 so as to be rotatable. The counterweight 8 is formed of a metal material such as zinc die casting so that a predetermined weight is generated, and a weight portion 8a having a large volume is disposed rearward with respect to the rotation shaft, and the center of gravity is moved rearward ( (See FIG. 7).

  The counterweight 8 is urged counterclockwise in FIG. 5 by a torsion spring (not shown) and is in contact with the output lever 7. The counterweight 8 rotates in the direction of the operating rotation position of the output lever 7 (clockwise direction in FIG. 5). ) To follow and rotate.

  The counterweight 8 is free to rotate clockwise with respect to the output lever 7, and when the output lever 7 is in the initial rotation position, only the counterweight 8 can be rotated clockwise.

  On the other hand, the bell crank 9 has a hook-like locking portion 9a at one end and a connecting hole 9b for connecting a cable device 11 for connecting to the door lock device 4 arranged inside the door 1 at the other end. The engaging portion 9a is rotatably connected around an axis fixed to the bell crank mounting hole 6b of the fixed handle 2 in a state of being sandwiched between the fork-shaped portions 7b of the output lever 7.

  The bell crank 9 is biased to the initial rotation position shown in FIG. 4 by a torsion spring (not shown), and when the bell crank 9 is in the initial rotation position, the output lever 7 is held in the initial rotation position.

  Therefore, in this example, in the non-operating state (initial state) of the handle device, as shown in FIG. 5, the output lever 7 is held at the initial rotation position by the biasing force to the bell crank 9, and accordingly The movable handle 3 pressed against the pushed piece 7a of the output lever 7 is held at the initial position.

  From this state, when the movable handle 3 is pulled to the surface side by placing the fingertip on the handle portion 3a, the output lever 7 and the counterweight 8 are pushed by the movable handle 3 and rotate clockwise in FIG. 6, as shown in FIG. Move to the operating rotation position.

  With the rotation of the output lever 7, the bell crank 9 rotates by an angle (θ) in FIG. 4 and moves to the operating rotation position, and the door lock device 4 is moved to the unlocked state. 4 is unlocked.

  When the movable handle 3 is operated until the door lock device 4 is unlocked, the fitting protrusion 10 positioned along the side wall surface of the fixed handle 2 in the initial rotation position has a free edge as shown in FIG. When the operation force is further applied to the surface of the movable handle 3 while the fingertip is hung on the handle 3a of the movable handle 3, the operation force is applied to the door via the fixed handle 2. 1 is given as an opening operation force, and the door 1 is opened.

  On the other hand, in the initial state shown in FIG. 5, when the side collision force in the direction of the arrow P0 is applied and the inertia in the operation rotation direction works on the movable handle 3, the output lever 7 tries to rotate in the operation rotation direction. The counterway generates a counterclockwise rotational force due to inertia, restricting the operation of the output lever 7 and preventing the door 1 from being unlocked.

  Furthermore, when a side collision force in the direction of arrow P1 in FIG. 5 is applied, only the counterweight 8 does not rotate clockwise and the output lever 7 does not rotate. It is.
