JPS582841Y2 - Common unlocking device for fuel filler lock and trunk lock in automobiles - Google Patents

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention connects the push-pull wire to the rear end by pushing and pulling one push-pull wire in the neutral position via the operating handle installed beside the driver's seat. Push the locking rod of the fuel filler port in the unlocking direction using the provided bushing rod, and use the locking piece provided on the bushing rod to rotate the lower part of the operating lever whose upper end is pivoted to the vertical board surface forward. In an automobile, the lock lever of a trunk lock, to which the rear end of the pull wire is suspended, can be operated in the unlocking direction via a pull wire, the front end of which is suspended from the lower end of the operating lever. This invention relates to a common unlocking device for a fuel filler lock and a trunk lock.

Car fuel filler locks and trunk locks can be unlocked with a key, or by operating a steering wheel or lever from the driver's seat.

Conventionally, this unlocking mechanism from the driver's seat has two handles B and C installed in a handle box A installed next to the driver's seat, etc., as shown in Fig. 1, and one handle B is connected to a pull wire D. Connect the other handle C to the fuel filler lock E via the fuel filler lock E, and connect the other handle C to the trunk lock G via the pull wire F, and by tilting one handle B backward, pull the pull wire D. By unlocking the fuel filler lock E and tilting the other handle C backward, the pull wire F is pulled to unlock the trunk lock G.

However, in this case, since two handles B and C are provided on a common handle box A, not only is it easy to operate the handle incorrectly, but it also requires two separate unlocking mechanisms. Since the mechanism is similar, the configuration is complicated,
It has the drawback of having many unnecessary parts and being expensive.

This invention was made to eliminate the drawback of slanting.
Hereinafter, explanation will be given based on embodiment figures.

An operating lever 2 is installed at the middle upper part of the vertical board 1 that extends in the front-rear direction.
The upper part of the actuating lever 2 is pivotally attached via a shaft pin 3, and a stopper 4 is protruded from the intermediate rear part of the actuating lever 2 on the base plate 1 so that the rear part of the actuating lever 2 in the vertical state comes into contact with the stopper 4.

A tension spring 5 is stretched between the lower part of the operating lever 2 and the rear end of the base plate 1, so that the operating lever 2 always maintains a vertical state.

In the cut groove 7 cut in the bent edge piece 6 at the rear lower part of the operating lever 2,
The front part of the bushing rod 9 which has the locking protrusion 8 in the middle,
The bushing rod 9 is mounted so that the intermediate locking protrusion 8 is located on the rear surface of the bent edge piece 6, and the oil filler lock rod 10 of the oil filler lock 17 is positioned immediately after the rear end of the bush rod 9.

The front end of the bushing rod 9 is connected to the rear end of the push-pull wire 11, and the front end of a pull wire 13 whose rear end is suspended from the trunk lock lever 12 of the trunk lock 19 is suspended from the lower end of the operating lever 2. .

In the present invention having the above-described configuration, the push-pull wire 1
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the front end of the operating handle 16 is attached to an operating handle 16 that is installed in a handle box 15 installed next to the driver's seat of an automobile 14 so as to be inverted back and forth. It is connected in such a way that it is pushed when it is tilted forward, and pulled when it is tilted backwards.

The vertical board 1 is installed on the inner surface of the body 18 in front of the fuel filler port, and the fuel filler lock rod 10 located immediately after the rear end of the bushing rod 9 unlocks the fuel filler lock 17 when moved rearward. The trunk lock lever 12 is designed to unlock the trunk lock 19 when the pull wire 13 is pulled forward.

Therefore, when the fuel filler port lock and the trunk lock are in the locked state, the bushing rod 9 is attached to the stopper 4.
The intermediate locking protrusion 8 is brought into contact with the rear surface of the edge piece 6 of the operating lever 2, which is maintained in a vertical state by the tension spring 5, so that the intermediate rear part is brought into contact with the lever so that the lever is always in the neutral position. Therefore, the bushing wire 11 and the operating handle 16 connected to the bushing rod 9 are also in a neutral state (
Figure 4.5).

When the operating handle 16 is tilted forward from this state, the push-pull wire 11 is pushed rearward, and the bushing rod 9 connected to the rear end of the push-pull wire 11 is also pushed rearward.

Therefore, the rear end of the bushing rod 9 pushes the oil filler lock rod 10 located immediately behind it rearward, and
will be unlocked.

Furthermore, when the operating handle 16 is tilted backward, the push-pull wire 11 is pulled forward, which also pulls the bushing rod 9 forward, and the locking protrusion 8 in the middle of the bushing rod 9 is engaged with the rear lower part of the operating lever 2. Engaging with the bent edge piece 6,
Rotate the lower part of the actuating lever 2 forward around the shaft pin 3.

As a result, the pull wire 13 whose front end is suspended from the lower end of the operating lever 2 is pulled forward, and the trunk lock lever 12 whose rear end is suspended from the pull wire 13 is pulled. The lock will be released (Figure 6).

In the above-described embodiment, the bushing rod directly operates the locking rod of the fuel filler lock, but the locking rod of the fuel filler lock may be operated indirectly via a rod or a wire. Further, although the operating lever is configured to operate the trunk lock lever of the trunk lock via a pull wire, it goes without saying that this is not limited to the pull wire, and other connection means may be used.

In this way, the present invention allows the fuel filler lock lever and the trunk lock lock lever to be moved in the unlocking direction by pushing or pulling the push-pull wire, which is always in the neutral position, by operating a single operating handle. The structure is simple and can be provided at low cost, and the operation is simple, as it only requires tilting one operating handle forward or backward. ,
There is no risk of erroneous operation.
