DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tilt/slide device for an opening/closing body for an automobile.

BACKGROUND ART Some automobiles have a slide drive mechanism that transmits opening/closing power to an opening/closing body attached to an opening of the vehicle body, and a tilting power mechanism at the rear of the opening/closing body, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-6126. after lifting the rear part of the opening/closing body from the vehicle body opening, moving the opening/closing body to the rear of the vehicle body opening,
Some have an open opening in the car body.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, since the above-mentioned structure is provided with a slide drive mechanism and a tilt drive mechanism, multiple drive sources and these drive sources can be adjusted in accordance with the tilt operation and slide operation of the opening/closing body. A control unit is required to drive and stop the vehicle, and the structure becomes complicated due to the multiple drive sources, control units, and wiring that electrically connects them, and the weight of the vehicle increases.

On the other hand, in the above-mentioned tilt/slide device, when the center of rotation during tilt operation cannot be set at the end of the opening/closing body due to the arrangement around the vehicle body opening, but is set at the middle part of the opening/closing body in the longitudinal direction. In this case, there is a risk that a part of the opening/closing body may interfere with the opening of the vehicle body during the tilt operation.

Therefore, the present invention enables the tilting operation and sliding operation of the opening/closing body to be performed with less driving force, and
To provide a tilt/slide device for an opening/closing body for an automobile, which can prevent the opening/closing body from interfering with a vehicle body opening even when the center of rotation during tilt operation is set at an intermediate portion of the opening/closing body in the longitudinal direction. be.

Means for Solving the Problems In the present invention, a vehicle body side slide rail is fixed to the vehicle body opening, and the front part of a rear tilt channel arranged along the vehicle body side slide rail is rotatable. The drive shoe mechanism and the driven shoe mechanism are attached to the slide rail on the vehicle body side so that the drive shoe mechanism and the driven shoe mechanism can slide into and engage with each other in the front-rear direction, and an engagement/disengagement mechanism guide section is provided. connected by a bendable engaging/disengaging mechanism, and guiding the engaging/disengaging mechanism to bend and extend at the boundary between the tilting operation and the sliding operation of the opening/closing body at the engaging/disengaging mechanism guide section by driving a drive shoe mechanism;
The drive shoe mechanism and the driven shoe mechanism are configured to move toward and away from each other, and a rear tilt lever is connected to the driven shoe mechanism and the rear tilt channel, and the rear tilt lever is connected to the rear tilt channel. are assembled so that they can be slid into and engaged with each other in the front and rear directions,
A front tilt bracket is fixed to the front part of this opening/closing body, and is assembled so as to be able to slide into and engage with the rear tilt channel in the front-rear direction, and an inclined front tilt guide portion is formed on the front tilt bracket. ,
The driving shoe mechanism is rotatably provided with an actuation arm, and a distal end of the actuation arm is connected to the front tilt guide hole so as to be able to slide and engage with the front tilt guide hole.

Operation To drive the opening/closing body when the door is closed, the drive shoe mechanism is driven rearward along the slide rail on the vehicle body side. Then, since the locking/unlocking mechanism is extended,
The driven shoe mechanism moves backward along the slide rail on the vehicle body side together with the driving shoe mechanism, and the tip of the operating arm slides into the front tilt guide hole of the front tilt bracket and hits the rear end of the front tilt guide hole. The front tilt bracket moves rearward along the rear tilt channel while the rear tilt lever rotates rearward around the connection point with the rear tilt channel, causing the rear tilt channel to move around its front rotation point. The rear tilt channel tilts forward, and the front tilt bracket rises by the height of the tilt between the front tilt guide hole and the rear tilt channel. As the front tilt bracket rises, the front part of the opening/closing body rises around the point of sliding engagement with the rear tilt channel, in other words, the front tilt operates, and the upward rotation of the rear tilt channel causes the opening/closing body to move upward. The rear part rises around the rotation point of the rear tilt channel, in other words, the rear tilt operates. As the front tilt operation and the rear tilt operation occur substantially simultaneously at the beginning of rotation of the opening/closing body, the entire opening/closing body rises diagonally rearward, and the vehicle body opening opens slightly. By the subsequent driving of the driving shoe mechanism, the locking/disengaging mechanism is guided to bend by the locking/disengaging mechanism guide section, and the driven shoe mechanism is detached from the driving shoe mechanism and left behind, and the actuating arm moves from the connection point with the driving shoe mechanism. While standing up at the center, the front tilt bracket moves rearward along the forward tilted rear tilt channel, and the entire opening/closing body moves rearward along the rear tilt channel, that is, slides, and the vehicle body opening is fully opened. Become.

On the contrary, in order to close the opening/closing body that is currently open, the drive shoe mechanism is driven forward along the vehicle body side slide rail. Then, since the engagement/disengagement mechanism is bent, the driven shoe mechanism remains stopped.
The actuation arm moves forward. At this time, the weight of the opening/closing body is acting on the front tilt bracket, so the tip of the actuating arm collides with the rear end of the front tilt guide hole, and the front tilt bracket moves forward along the forward tilting rear tilt channel. The entire opening/closing body moves forward along the rear tilt channel, that is, slides, and the vehicle body opening is closed to a slightly open state. By the subsequent driving of the driving shoe mechanism, the locking/disengaging mechanism is guided to extend at the locking/disengaging mechanism guide section, the driven shoe mechanism is connected to the driving shoe mechanism and tailgated along the vehicle body side slide rail, and the rear tilt lever is moved to the rear tilt position. The rear tilt channel rotates forward around the connection point with the channel and rotates downward around the rotation point of the rear tilt channel and its front part, and the rear tilt channel changes from a forward tilted state to a laid down state, while the front tilt The bracket stops sliding forward along the rear tilt channel, the tip of the actuating arm slides into the front tilt guide hole and moves to the front end of the front tilt guide hole, and the front tilt bracket moves forward. It descends by the tilt height of the tilt guide hole and the lodging height of the rear tilt channel.
As the front tilt bracket lowers, the front part of the opening/closing body lowers around the sliding engagement point with the rear tilt channel, that is, the front tilt operates.
Due to the downward rotation of the rear tilt channel,
The rear part of the opening/closing body moves downward around the rotation point of the rear tilt channel, that is, performs a rear tilt operation. By performing the front tilt operation and the rear tilt operation substantially simultaneously just before the end of the closing movement of the opening/closing body, the vehicle body opening is fully closed while the opening/closing body is lowered diagonally forward.

It rises by a height corresponding to the curvature, and the front part of the rear deck F tilts upward around the roller 13 of the rear tilt channel 6, and as the drive shoe mechanism 3 moves backward, the engagement and disengagement mechanism 5 moves upward. The wedge claw 5a moves backward to push the connecting roller 5c backward, and the driven shoe mechanism 4 moves backward along the driven shoe mechanism guide section 2b, so that the slide pin 4g at the free end of the rear tilt lever 7 moves backward into the long groove 4e. While running idly from the rear end to the front end, the latching pin 8b moves up the first inclined surface 8d of the rear tilt guide member 8a, and the rear tilt channel 6 receives an initial tilt assist force. Further, as the driven shoe mechanism 4 moves backward, the slide pin 4g collides with the front end of the long groove 4e, and the rear tilt lever 7 is attached to the support shaft 7b to the rear tilt channel 6.
The rear tilt channel 6 rises with the pin 6b of the pin bracket 6a as the rotation center, the rear part of the rear deck F tilts upward, and the front part of the rear deck F tilts. By almost simultaneously proceeding with the rear tilt operation,
Rear deck F opens/closes roof J and trunk lid H
And, without interfering with the side portion L of the vehicle body, it opens in a forward tilted manner as shown in FIGS. 6A to 6B. Subsequently, by the backward movement of the drive shoe mechanism 3, the engagement/disengagement mechanism 5 is
The rear carriage roller 5h is connected to the engagement/disengagement mechanism guide section 2.
It is taken into the lead-in groove 2m from the front guide groove 2l of c.
The connection between the connecting roller 5c and the wedge roller 5a is released (the engaging/disengaging mechanism 5 is disengaged), and the driven shoe mechanism 4
is left behind, only the drive shoe mechanism 3 moves rearward, the front tilt bracket 9 moves rearward along the rear tilt channel 6, and the slide channel 10 moves the front tilt bracket 9 rearward via the rear deck F. As the roller 14 moves toward the guide groove 10
a, and therefore moves rearward while slidingly contacting and engaging with the rollers 13 and 14, and while the rear deck F slides rearward while remaining in a forward tilted state as shown in Fig. 6C, the driven A load from the rear deck F is applied to the shoe mechanism 4, and this load is applied from the rear link plate 5k to the rear carriage roller 5h via the intermediate link plate 5i, and then the carriage roller 5h is received by the upper end of the lead-in groove 2m. As a result, the driven shoe mechanism 4 is held stopped, and the slide pin 4g of the free end of the rear tilt lever 7 is attached to the front end of the long groove 4e of the driven shoe mechanism 4.
is received, and rotation of the rear tilt lever 7 is prevented. The drive shoe mechanism 3 continues to move backward, and the rear deck F moves backward along the arcuate shapes of the guide grooves 6c and 10a of the rear tilt channel 6 and slide channel 10, to the fully open position shown in the imaginary line shown in FIG. The door is opened in a state where it moves and almost overlaps above the trunk lid H.

Furthermore, in the open state of the rear deck F,
When the motor 11 of the tilt/slide device G is reversely rotated, the drive shoe mechanism 3 first moves in the direction shown by the arrow in FIG. 6A.
Moving forward in the _Z2 direction, the rear deck F moves from its fully open position to its fully closed position, and in the middle of this movement, the wedge claw 5a that moves forward collides with the front connecting roller 5b, moving the rear carriage roller 5h from the retracting groove 2m. Pull it out to the front guide groove 2l, and press this wedge claw 5.
Due to the connection between a and the connecting roller 5e, the driven shoe mechanism 4 is brought along with the driving shoe mechanism 3, and as the driven shoe mechanism 4 moves forward in the direction of arrow _Z2 , the slide pin 4g is moved by the weight of the rear deck F. While in contact with the front end of the long groove 4e, the rear tilt lever 7 rotates forward and upward about the support shaft 7b, and the rear tilt channel 6 engages the pin 6 of the pin bracket 6a.
After swinging downward around b as the rotation center, the slide pin 4g collides with the front end 8g of the stopper guide groove 8h and moves forward together with the driven shoe mechanism 4 while running idle in the long groove 4e from the front end to the rear end. The latch pin 8b collides with the rear inclined surface 8e of the rear regulating mechanism 8, and the latch pin 8b is pulled into the receiving groove 8f, while the front carriage roller 9c of the front tilt bracket 9 guides the rear tilt channel 6. Groove 6c
At the same time, the slide pin 3l at the tip of the operating arm 3f of the drive shoe mechanism 3 slides through the front tilt guide hole 9d of the front tilt bracket 9 from the rear end to the front end. Then, the rear deck F is in the trunk room opening B.
The door is closed against the sealing reaction force caused by a weather strip (not shown) attached to the periphery of the door.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, at the boundary between the tilt operation and the slide operation by bending and extending the locking/disengaging mechanism,
The drive shoe mechanism and the driven shoe mechanism can be brought into contact and separated, and the driven shoe mechanism can be left behind or tailgated, so the tilt and slide operations of the opening/closing body can be performed using a single drive source without causing any problems in reducing the weight of the vehicle body. In addition, by tailgating the driven shoe mechanism, the rear tilt channel can be vertically swung around its front rotation point, and the front tilt bracket can be moved into the front tilt guide hole. This rise causes the front part of the opening/closing body to tilt forward around the point of sliding contact with the slide channel on the vehicle body, and the rear part of the opening/closing body to move forward to the rear tilt channel. The rear tilt operation is performed around the rotation point, and as the front and rear tilt operations of the opening/closing body proceed almost simultaneously, the entire opening/closing body rises diagonally backward at the beginning of rotation, and the closing movement ends. Immediately before this, the entire opening/closing body descends diagonally forward, which has the effect of allowing the opening/closing body to open/close with a smaller driving force without interfering with the area around the vehicle body opening.
