Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Purpose of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a door handle device used for opening and closing a door for an automobile.

(Prior Art and Problems to be Solved) Various handle devices of this type have been proposed in the past, and a typical handle device will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 1 is a rear view of the handle device, in which arms 2 provided on a handle (not shown) housed in an escutcheon 1 attached to a door panel by a bolt 3 have openings formed in the escutcheon 1. It projects from 1 ', 1' (on the front side of the paper).

Bending pieces 1a, 1b and 1c, 1d, which are respectively arranged at appropriate intervals on the back side of the escutcheon, are provided between the front two persons 1a, 1b and one arm 2 between the rear two persons 1c, 1d. It is provided so that the other arm 2 is located.

The arms 2 such as the bent pieces 1a are formed with openings so as to be concentric when they are arranged at predetermined positions, and pivot pins 4 and 4 are attached to the openings. The pin 4
Coil springs 5 and 5 are respectively arranged in the coil springs. The ends of the coil springs are locked to the bent pieces 1a and 1c, and the other ends are locked to the arms 2 to hold the handles. It is biased towards the escutcheon side.

An opening 2'is formed in one of the arms 2, that is, the left arm in the figure, and the other end of a rod, one end of which is connected to a lock device (not shown), engages with the arm 2 to rotate the handle. The rod is lowered by the operation to unlock the rod.

By the way, in the handle device having such a structure, various parts tend to be made of synthetic resin due to the recent demand for weight reduction of automobiles, and the handle device does not leak to this, and therefore the handle device as described above. Even in escutcheons and handles, synthetic resin materials are becoming available.

For this reason, the arm 2, which receives a force each time the handle is operated,
There is a drawback that the strength of the bent pieces 1a to 1d is weakened, which deteriorates the operability.

Further, when the molding is made of a synthetic resin material, the bent pieces 1a to 1d of the escutcheon 1 may be bent or twisted immediately after the molding, which causes a situation that subsequent assembly becomes difficult. There was a problem.

The present invention has been made to cope with such a situation, and in the handle device having the above-mentioned configuration, it is possible to avoid the occurrence of the above-mentioned problems at the time of manufacturing, and to prevent escutcheon during subsequent use. It is an object of the present invention to provide a handle device that eliminates the distortion of a bent piece and can always obtain stable and good operability.

(2) Configuration of the Invention (Technical Means for Solving the Problem and Its Action) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the invention is an outdoor handle device for an automobile door, and an escutcheon made of synthetic resin attached to a door panel of the automobile, A handle housed in the escutcheon, and an arm provided on the handle is disposed between at least a pair of bending pieces integrally provided on the escutcheon, and the bending piece and the arm are mutually connected by a pivot pin. Is rotatably connected to
In an outdoor handle device for elastically biasing the handle into the escutcheon by a coil spring arranged on the pivot pin, the handle is integrally formed with the pair of bent pieces, and each tip of the bent pieces is It is characterized in that it is provided with a bridge member which is connected to each other.

With such a configuration, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of irregular products during molding and manufacture, and to increase the durability during use.

(Explanation of Examples) FIG. 1 is a rear view showing an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view showing the vicinity of the bent piece 1a, 1b side. Portions corresponding to those shown are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted unless the configuration and action thereof are necessary.

In the illustrated apparatus, the bristle member 6 is provided between the bending pieces 1a and 1b and the bending pieces 1c and 1d provided on the escutcheon 1, respectively.
6'is provided and the bent pieces 1a and 1b and the bent pieces 1c and 1d are integrally connected to each other.

With this structure, when molding the escutcheon 1 with an appropriate synthetic resin material, the bridge members 6, 6 '
It is possible to prevent the bent pieces 1a to 1d from being bent or distorted due to the presence of the above, and it is also possible to prevent the irregular force applied when the handle is operated even when actually used. Since it is dispersed in the bent pieces, the durability is improved.

(3) Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, in the handle device having a structure in which the handle is elastically biased to the resin escutcheon attached to the automobile door panel, at least a pair of folding parts provided on the escutcheon are provided. Since the arm on the handle side is interposed between the bending pieces and the tips of the pair of bending pieces are integrally connected and reinforced with a bridge member, the pair of bending pieces formed in a protruding shape are parallel to each other when molding the escutcheon. It is possible to greatly reduce the time and effort required for assembly after that due to a decrease in the degree of twisting and the occurrence of twisting, and to contribute to cost reduction by eliminating the increase in the number of parts and assembly man-hours due to the separate installation of the bridge member. In addition, since irregular force such as twisting applied to the bent piece via the pivot pin when the handle is operated during use can be distributed to both bent pieces, durability is increased and stable operation for a long time is ensured. Sex is obtained.
