Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a vehicle out-handle device for opening and closing a vehicle door from outside the vehicle.

(Prior Art) Devices of this type are known in which a key hole provided in a handle case is illuminated by opening and closing operations of the handle.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, the conventional device had a problem in that the link between the handle and the light switch was complicated.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention aims to solve such problems, and includes an out handle that is pivotally supported by the out handle case, and a connection between the out handle and the out handle case. With a crank that extends to the back,
In a vehicle out-handle device including a switch operated by the crank, a rocking plate is pivotally supported at an upper position of a bulging portion of an out-handle case, extends substantially parallel to the case, and is engaged with the crank of the out-handle. , a door unlocking rod connected to the rocking plate, and an opening/closing switch that is located on the rocking trajectory of the rocking plate and detects an out-handle operation in response to the rocking plate. shall be.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings. Reference numeral 1 indicates an out-handle case, 2 indicates a handle, and the handle 2 is provided on the back surface of the handle in an upwardly curved manner. A pair of left and right support arms 3, 3 are provided, and the arms 3, 3 are inserted through the bulge 1a provided on the back surface of the case 1, and the insertion ends thereof are attached to the upper edge 4 of the bulge 1a. , a return spring 7 is pivotally supported via support shafts 6 on the left and right pairs of the mounting portion 5 consisting of a pair of brackets 5a, 5a provided perpendicularly thereto, and is fitted into one of the support shafts 6. The handle 2 is fixed to the case 1 by locking one end to the support arm 3 and the other end to the mounting portion 5. Reference numeral 8 indicates a rocking plate, and the rocking plate 8 has one end located at the center of the upper edge 4 of the case 1, and a bracket 9a provided in parallel thereto.
A helical spring 12 is provided parallel to the case 1 by being pivotally supported by a mounting portion 9 consisting of a support shaft 10 and a collar 11 fitted into the support shaft 10, and further fitted into the support shaft 10. one end to the rocking plate 8,
The first end is elastically supported so as to rotate upward by locking the other end to the mounting part 9, and the other end pivotally supports the door unlocking rod 13, and the first end is bent from the upper side in the middle part. A contact piece 14 and a second contact piece 15 bent from the lower side are provided, and the first contact piece 14
A crank 16 is provided on one side of the support arm 3 so as to come into contact with the second contact piece 15, and a lighting switch 17 is provided on the case 1 so as to come into contact with the second contact piece 15. In the figure, 18 indicates a cylinder lock attached to the case 1.

To explain its operation, the handle 2 is wrapped around the spring 7.
When the support arm 3 is pulled up against the force, the support arm 3 rotates around its fulcrum, and as a result of this rotation, the crank 16 provided at one end of the support arm 3 presses the first contact piece 14, causing the rocking plate 8 to move. In order to rotate against the coil spring 12, the door unlocking rod 13 attached to the tip swings greatly to unlock the door, and the second contact piece 15 turns on the switch 17.
For example, it lights up an illumination light in the keyhole of a door lock.

(Effect of the invention) As described above, according to the invention, the swing plate 8 that is interlocked with the handle 1 is placed parallel to the case 1 above the bulge 1a on the back side of the out handle case 1 that pivotally supports the out handle. The door unlocking rod 13 is connected to the rocking plate 8, and the switch 17 is connected to the rocking plate 8. Therefore, the handle 1, the door unlocking rod 13, and the switch 17 are
The interlocking of the switch 17 is simplified, and the mounting position of the switch 17 is not limited to the position of the support arm 3, that is, the protruding position of the crank 16 that operates the swing plate 8.
The switch 17 can be mounted at an appropriate position such as a flat part adjacent to the bulge 1a, which simplifies the design. It has the effect of being compact and easy to install without increasing the size.
