Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a device for attaching a rope or attachment to a motor vehicle.

In conventional automobiles, especially trucks with a cargo bed, the rope hook for securing cargo had a single function of hanging a rope, so in order to attach another attachment such as a cargo bed cover, a hole had to be made in the cargo bed. I decided to fasten it with bolts, but I had no choice but to attach many small vises to tighten it. Therefore, in the former case, holes remain in the loading platform after the mounting body is removed, and in the latter case, the paint peels off when tightened with a vise.
It seriously damages the appearance and causes rust, which shortens the lifespan of the car body.Furthermore, the installation operation is very complicated.

This invention improves these conventional drawbacks and
A rope hook without any special processing can be used as an attachment attachment device, and can be used to attach luggage or attached objects with simple operation.
The object of the present invention is to provide a device which can be removed reliably and quickly and which does not impair the life of the exterior vehicle body.

To explain the structure of this invention in more detail with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a rope hook having a hook portion 1a, which is arranged at a distance inside the top rail 3 of the side panel 2a of the cargo bed of the automobile body 2. The tip of the hook portion 1a is fixed so as to face downward. 4 is a mounting body, such as a cover body mounted on the side panel 2a of the loading platform;
Eyebolt-shaped mounting fittings 6 having pipe-shaped bearing portions 7 are screwed onto the frame 5 at positions corresponding to the rope hooks 1, respectively. A shaft 8 is slidably and rotatably fitted through each of the bearings 7, and an operating lever 9 bent into an L shape is attached to one end of the shaft. 10
is a lock bar, the bent legs 10a, 10a on both sides are fixed to the shaft 8 to form a space 11, and the left half of the lock bar 10 (see FIG. 2) is a hook part of the rope hook 1. An engaging portion 12 is formed by a narrow space that engages with the hook 1a, and a fitting/removal portion 13 is formed on the right half by a wide space through which the hook portion 1a can pass. 14 is a spring, and the shaft 8
Plain washers 15 and bearings 7 fixed to
The rope hook 1 is stretched between the rope hook 1 and the right end of the rope hook 1, and is always biased so as to correspond to the position where the engaging portion 12 engages with the hook portion 1a of the rope hook 1.

With this structure, when loading cargo on the loading platform, the rope is hooked onto the hook portion 1a of the rope hook 1. In addition, when mounting the mounting body 4 such as a cover body on the loading platform, push in the operating lever 9 of each shaft 8 of the mounting body 4 against the tension of the spring 14, and then rotate it downward to release the lock bar 1.
0 rotates downward and the fitting/disengaging part 13 connects to the rope hook 1.
It passes through the hook part 1a and enters the back side, so
When the pressure on the operating lever 9 is released, the spring 1
4, the shaft 8 slides, and the engaging part 12 of the lock bar 10 engages the rope hook 1.
It locks onto the hook portion 1a. Further, in order to remove the mounting body 4 from the loading platform, the above-described operation may be performed in reverse. That is, after pressing the operating lever 9 and disengaging the engaging portion 12 of the lock bar 10 from the hook portion 1a of the rope hook 1, the operating lever 9 is rotated to rotate the lock bar 10 upward, and the pressing of the operating lever 9 is released. do it.

In the embodiment described above, a plurality of lock bars 10 on the same side are operated simultaneously by one operating lever 9, but an operating lever 9 may be provided for each lock bar 10.

As mentioned above, this invention uses a single part to both hang the rope and attach the attachment body, which saves the trouble of attaching both parts to the loading platform, and also makes the loading platform tidy and prevents erroneous latching operations. You can do it without any trouble. Further, unlike the conventional method, the use of a vise does not cause rust due to peeling of paint, damage to the vehicle body, etc., and the rope hook can be attached without any special processing, so the conventional vehicle body can be used as is.

The lock bar can be easily engaged and detached from the rope hook by simply pressing and rotating the upper operating lever, and the locked state is maintained by the tension of the spring, so that the lock bar will not move upward even when external forces such as vibrations and shocks are applied while driving. Since the lock is not released unless the lock is rotated, it has various excellent effects such as extremely high safety.
