Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to a center assist grip that is provided between the driver's seat and the passenger's seat for the middle seat in the front seat of a cab-over type automobile.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in cab-over type trucks, etc., a center assist grip 23 has been provided on the seat floor between the driver's seat 21 and the passenger's seat 22 for the middle seat of the front three seats, as shown in FIG. It was getting worse. However, since the conventional center assist grip 23 is fixed, the front three-seat seat 21,
22, the center assist grip 23 protruding between the driver's seat 21 and the passenger seat 22 becomes an obstacle.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

This invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object to provide a center assist grip that can be used without rattling when in use, and can be stored in a position out of the way when resting. With the goal.

[Means for solving problems]

For this reason, in this invention, the front part forms a grip part, the rear part forms a bar-shaped part, a hook is provided below the grip part, and the rear end of the bar-shaped part has a vertical groove and a vertical groove that continues in front of this longitudinal groove. A bearing comprising an assist grip main body having an L-shaped elongated hole formed with a horizontal groove, a support shaft that fits into the elongated hole, and a stopper that comes into contact with an end side surface of the grip main body and holds the assist grip main body in a retracted position. There is provided a center assist grip for a vehicle, comprising a metal fitting and a catch into which the hook of the assist grip main body can be inserted from the rear in a horizontal direction.

[Effect]

When using the center assist grip, the support shaft fits into the longitudinal groove of the L-shaped elongated hole to restrict the back and forth movement of the assist grip body, and the hook fits into the catch to allow the assist grip body to swing in the vertical direction. The assist grip body can be securely fixed by restricting movement, and when stored, the assist grip body is rotated clockwise around the support shaft and stored between the seat backrests in an almost vertical position, with the support shaft in an L-shape. The assist grip body fits into the horizontal groove of the shaped elongated hole and descends under its own weight, and the stopper and the end side of the assist grip body come into contact to restrict the swinging of the assist grip body and maintain the stored position.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of this invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a side view of the embodiment, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view.

The assist grip main body 1 has an L-shaped elongated hole 3 in a rod-shaped part extending rearward of the grip part 2, and a trapezoidal hook 4 is provided below the grip part 2, and is made of synthetic resin. It is integrally molded. The elongated hole 3 is formed into an L-shape in which horizontal lateral grooves 3A and vertical grooves 3B are continuous.

A U-shaped bracket 7 is fixed to the vehicle body 6 behind the seat 5. The bracket 7 supports the support shaft 8 and has a stopper 9 below it.
It is equipped with The stopper 9 extends from the rear of the bracket 7, has a smooth curved surface, and has a downwardly curved end. This downwardly bent portion comes into contact with the upper end side surface 1A of the assist grip main body 1 and functions as a stopper. The above bracket 7, support shaft 8 and stopper 9 form a bearing fitting.

A support shaft 8 supported by the bracket 7 is fitted into the elongated hole 3 of the assist grip main body 1, and supports the assist grip main body 1 in a swingable manner. On the other hand, a catch 11 is fixed onto the seat floor 10. The trapezoidal hook 4 of the catch 11 is fitted into its recess to press down on the upper part of the hook 4 and to restrict vertical swinging of the assist grip main body 1.

The operation will be explained. FIG. 1 shows the normal use position of the assist grip main body 1, FIG. 3 shows the movement process from the use position to the storage position, and FIG. 4 shows the storage position.

In the use position, the support shaft 8 is fitted into the longitudinal groove 3B of the elongated hole 3, and the hook 4 is engaged with the catch 11. Therefore, the movement of the assist grip main body 1 in the longitudinal direction is regulated by the support shaft 8 and the vertical groove 3B of the long hole 3, and the vertical swing of the assist grip main body 1 is regulated by the hook 4 and the catch 11. is securely fixed and grip part 2
It will not wobble even if a large force is applied to the front.

When trying to store it, lift the rear part of the assist grip main body 1 and insert the support shaft 8 into the vertical groove 3 of the long hole 3.
After that, slide the assist grip body 1 backward and attach the hook 4 and the catch 1.
1 (state shown by the solid line in Figure 3). In this state, the support shaft 8 is located in the horizontal groove 3A of the elongated hole 3, and the assist grip main body 1 becomes swingable.
Next, the assist grip main body 1 is rotated clockwise (the state shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 3). When the assist grip body 1 is rotated to the right by about 70 degrees, the assist grip body 1 descends due to its own weight, and when rotated to an almost vertical position, the end side surface 1A of the assist grip body 1 comes into contact with the stopper 9 and enters the retracted position (fourth position). figure). In this retracted position, the support shaft 8 fits into the horizontal groove 3A of the elongated hole 3, and the stopper 9 abuts against the end side surface 1A, thereby restricting the left rotation direction of the assist grip main body 1.

To return the assist grip body 1 from the storage position to the use position, first press the assist grip main body 1 in the state shown in the fourth figure.
is pulled up to release the contact between the stopper 9 and the end side surface 1A, making it freely swingable, and the hook 4 is moved to the catch 11.
Rotate to the left until it is above. Next, the assist grip main body 1 is slid rearward to lower the hook 4 onto the seat floor 10, and in this state, the assist grip main body 1 is slid forward to engage the hook 4 and the catch 11. At the same time as the engagement, the rear part of the assist grip main body 1 falls under its own weight, and the support shaft 8 fits into the vertical groove 3B of the long hole 3, so that the assist grip main body 1 is securely fixed.

The assist grip main body 1 fixed in the use position in this manner is securely fixed against forces other than the direction of lifting the rear part of the assist grip main body 1, that is, the direction of rotating the assist grip main body 1 to the left about the hook 4, and does not wobble. do not have. It is easy to hold the rear part of the assist grip body 1 and rotate it to the left, but it is difficult to grasp the grip part 2 and rotate it to the left because the hook 4, which is the center of rotation, is located directly below the grip part 2, which requires a large amount of force. Therefore, the fixation will not come off when using the grip. The force applied to the assist grip main body 1 when the grip is used is mainly the force applied in the forward direction, and the assist grip main body 1 is firmly held by the support shaft 8 and the catch 11 against forces in such directions.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to this invention, the center assist grip can be easily stored in a position out of the way when resting, and when in use, it is securely fixed without wobbling and is easy to use. It has the excellent effect of having a unique structure.
