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 had no choice but to bolt it down or 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 by using the rope hook as an attachment mounting device, it simplifies the operation of attaching and removing luggage or attached objects in one step, and does not impair the lifespan of the exterior car body. The purpose is to obtain a device.

The structure of this invention will be explained in detail with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawings. Reference numeral 1 denotes a rope hook which is fixed to a top rail 3 of a side panel 2a of a cargo bed of an automobile main body 2 at intervals. The rope hook 1 is composed of two upper and lower members 1a and 1b. The lower member 1b has an arch-shaped through hole 4 in the center for passing the rope through, while the upper member 1a has hook parts 5 at both ends for hanging the rope. Set up In addition, a mounting hole 6 penetrating through the through hole 4 is formed in the center of both the upper and lower members 1a, 1b, and notched holes 7 are provided on both sides of the mounting hole 6 at the joints of the upper and lower members 1a, 1b. An annular groove 8 is formed so as to open therethrough, and a hairpin-shaped spring 9 bent in a U-shape is fitted into the groove 8, and the mounting hole is inserted so that the spring 9 is parallel to the notch hole 7. Make it stick out from 6. Reference numeral 10 denotes a mounting body, such as a cover body mounted on the side panel 2a of the loading platform, and a mounting bracket 12 is attached to the frame 11 at a position corresponding to the rope hook 1. The mounting bracket 12 has a U-shaped vertical section, and the upper plate 12
a and a lower plate 12b. Reference numeral 13 denotes a striker, which is formed in the shape of a round bar, and has two upper and lower locking steps 14 spaced 180 degrees apart in the circumferential direction on its outer circumferential surface, and the upper small diameter portion is connected to a mounting bracket. 12
A coil spring 16 is rotatably fitted to the lower plate 12b and fixed to the operation plate 15, and has one end latched to the operation plate 15 and the other end latched to the edge of the upper plate 12a. The operation plate 15 is always brought into contact with a stopper piece 17 which is cut and raised from the lower plate 12b by the tension of the coil spring 16. Furthermore, a wire 18 is tied to the tip of the operation plate 15.

With this structure, when placing a load on the loading platform, the rope is hung on the hook portion 5 of the rope hook 1 and inserted into the through hole 4 to be hung thereon. When attaching a mounting body 10 such as a cover body to the loading platform, each striker 13 of the mounting body 10 is inserted into the mounting hole 7 of the rope hook 1, respectively. A spring 9 projects in parallel into the mounting hole 7, so when the striker 13 is inserted, the spring 9 is locked to the locking step 14 of the striker 13, fixing the mounting body 10 on the loading platform 2a. be able to. Furthermore, in order to remove this, when the wire 18 is pulled, the operating plate 15 rotates against the coil spring 17, and all the strikers 13 integrated with this rotate 90 degrees, and the spring 9 in the mounting hole 7 is moved to the locking stage. Since it is removed from part 14 and rides on the outer peripheral surface of striker 13,
By pulling up the striker 13, the mounting body 10 can be removed from the loading platform 3 in one step.

Note that in the above embodiment, the striker 1
3 was configured to rotate, but the rope hook 1
The spring 9 on the side may be rotated.
Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, only the striker mounting device may be used. In this case, it can be used other than as a loading platform.

As mentioned above, this invention uses a single part to both hang the rope and attach the attachment body, so there is no need to attach both parts to the loading platform, and the loading platform becomes cluttered, which prevents mistakes in latching operations. It can be done without. Furthermore, unlike the conventional method, the use of a vise does not cause rust due to peeling of paint or damage to the vehicle body.

Moreover, the striker can be automatically installed by simply inserting it into the mounting hole, and can be reliably and quickly removed in a single operation by simply rotating the operating plate. Furthermore, since the locking step portion of the striker is formed in two stages, upper and lower, it has various excellent effects such as extremely high safety against vibrations and shocks during running.
