Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a vehicle door device in which an assist grip is provided on an inner surface of a door trim of a door body having a door lock mechanism.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Vehicle doors such as automobile doors are generally provided with an assist grip and an armrest on the inner surface of the door trim of the door body having a door lock mechanism, but the conventional one is the conventional model No. Sho 63-87117. As seen in the official gazette, since the door lock is usually opened and closed by operating the inside handle provided separately from the assist grip and armrest, it is difficult to operate the inside handle when opening and closing the door. It had to be in a posture, and the presence or absence of an inside handle had a great influence on the interior decoration, which was a problem in terms of the door design.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems and enables the door locking mechanism to be released in a comfortable posture when opening and closing the door, and the inside handle is eliminated to enhance the interior decoration effect. It was completed for the purpose of providing a vehicle door device that can be used.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A vehicle door device according to the present invention made to solve the above problems is a vehicle door device in which an assist grip is provided on the inner surface of a door trim of a door body having a door locking mechanism. A rotary grip that can be switched between a rotatable state and a fixed state by an operation is provided, and a lock of a door lock is provided between the rotary grip and the door lock mechanism by rotating the rotary grip. It is characterized by interposing a door lock operating mechanism for unlocking.

[0005]

[Action]

 The assist grip device configured in this way uses the rotary grip as the grip portion of the assist grip because the rotary grip is always restricted in rotation and is in a fixed state, but the door lock mechanism is released. If desired, the rotary grip can be rotated by operating the lock button, and this rotary grip can be rotated by the required amount to release the door lock by the door lock mechanism via the door lock operation mechanism.

【Example】

 The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the illustrated embodiment. In the figure, 1 is a door body having a door lock mechanism (not shown), 3 is a door trim on the inner surface of the door body 1, the door trim 3 is provided with a pocket 4 and an armrest 5, and from the front end of the armrest 5. The assist grip 6 having a grip formed on the rotary grip 7 between the front of the door trim body and the switching mechanism 8 operated by the operation of the lock button 8a provides the rotary grip 7 with a rotatable state and a fixed state. It is provided so that it can be switched. As shown in FIG. 3, the switching mechanism 8 includes the lock button 8a provided at the front end of the assist grip 6, the backward movement when the lock button 8a is pushed forward, and the spring 22 when the lock button 8a is returned. A wire 9 that moves forward by force, a lock pin 11 that moves back and forth in a guide groove 10 provided in front of the assist grip 6 in conjunction with the wire 9, and a rotation so that the lock pin 11 is disengaged. It is composed of an engagement hole 12 provided in front of the grip 7.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a door lock operating mechanism interposed between the rotary grip 7 and the door lock mechanism incorporated in the door body 1. The door lock operating mechanism 13 rotates the rotary grip 7. This is for unlocking the door lock by the door lock mechanism. In the embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when the rotary grip 7 is rotated, it is rotated via the shaft 14 that is rotated in association with the rotation grip 7. The rotation of the first gear 15 is rotated and the rotation of the second gear 16 meshed with the first gear 15 is transmitted to the worm gear mechanism 18 in the gear box 20 via the shaft 17, and the wire 19 connected to the worm gear mechanism 18 is connected to the worm gear mechanism 18. It is assumed that the door lock mechanism (not shown) is moved forward and backward to operate for the same reason as in the conventional case by operating the inside handle to unlock the door.

In such a structure, the lock pin 11 of the switching mechanism 8 is always engaged with the engaging hole 12 provided in front of the rotating grip 7 and the rotation of the rotating grip 7 is restricted. Since it is in the fixed state, the rotating grip 7 can be used as the grip portion of the assist grip 6 in the same manner as a conventional assist grip device, but when it is desired to unlock the door by the door lock mechanism, the switching mechanism is used. When the lock button 8a of 8 is returned, the lock pin 11 is moved forward through the wire 9 to disengage the engagement with the engagement hole 12 as shown in FIG. Since the grip 7 is rotatable, after that, the rotary grip 7 is rotated by a required amount to rotate the first gear 15 via the shaft 14 and the second gear 16 meshed with the first gear 15. Through the shaft 17 to the normal position The wire 19 connected to the worm gear mechanism 18 in the gear box 20 that has been installed is retracted to the position shown in FIG. It suffices to operate the door lock mechanism to release the lock.

That is, the rotating grip 7, which is always in a fixed state and can be used like the conventional assist grip device, can be rotated by a simple button operation only when it is desired to unlock the door lock mechanism. It is designed to be unlocked by the door lock mechanism by rotating the rotary grip 7. The door handle is unlocked by operating the inside handle provided on the door trim 3 separately from the assist grip and the armrest. The operation for unlocking does not have to be in a cramped posture unlike the conventional one that does the above, and the interior trim effect can be remarkably enhanced because the inside handle is not required and the surface of the door trim 3 can be cleaned.

[0010]

[Effect of the device]

 As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, the inside handle, which was indispensable for unlocking the door, is eliminated, and instead, the assist grip is locked so that it can be rotated by operating the lock button. In the fixed state with the switchable rotary grip in two modes, the rotary grip is used as the grip of the assist grip, and the rotary grip is operated by button operation only when the door lock mechanism is desired to unlock. It can be unlocked by the door lock mechanism via the door lock actuating mechanism by rotating the rotating grip at a position where it can be rotated and at a position where it is easy to operate, by unlocking the door lock. It can be easily performed in a comfortable position, and the interior handle can be enhanced by eliminating the inside handle. Therefore, the present invention is of great practical value as a solution to the problems of the conventional vehicle door device of this type.
