DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides that, when a vehicle suddenly decelerates, a locking pawl of a pendulum rotatably supported by a lower arm is fixed to a locking groove of an atsupah arm tiltably supported by the lower arm. This invention relates to an inertial lock type seat that engages with the upper arm to restrict rotation of the upper arm and lock the seat back.

Conventional seats of this type are configured so that the diameter of the rotating shaft is made small in order to reduce the frictional torque of the pendulum, and the force from the upper arm is received by other parts of the pendulum. However, in reality, the diameter of the rotating shaft could not be made that small, and as a result, there was a problem that the response of the pendulum was poor. Furthermore, since a mechanism for receiving the force from the upper arm is provided separately from the rotating shaft, there is also the problem that the structure becomes complicated.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 to 3, 1,
Reference numeral 2 designates a pair of lower arms fixed to a seat cushion (not shown), the main lower arm 1 being made of a flat plate, and the sub lower arm 2 being made of a bent flat plate. Reference numeral 3 designates an upper arm disposed between the lower arms 1 and 2, the upper part of which is fixed to a seat back (not shown), and spacers 4 are arranged on both sides of the upper arm 3. Also, Atsupa Arm 3
through hole 5, coaxial through hole 6 of lower arms 1, 2,
A stepped shaft 8 is inserted through the spacer 7 and the spacer 4, and is prevented from coming off by an E ring 9. That is, the upper arm 3 is tiltably supported by the lower arms 1 and 2. Further, the upper arm 3 is provided with an arcuate elongated hole 10, a locking groove 11, and a flat surface 12 for tilting the seat back. Reference numeral 13 designates a stepped pin, whose both end portions are inserted into the coaxial through holes 14 and 15 of the lower arms 1 and 2, and whose central portion is inserted into the circular arc-shaped elongated hole 10. Reference numeral 16 denotes a shaft that is prevented from coming off by an E ring 19 after being inserted into the coaxial through holes 17 and 18 of the lower arms 1 and 2, and the shaft is secured by a knurled portion 2 located in the gap between the lower arms 1 and 2.
0 has a logarithmic spiral shape (ρ=ρ 0 e〓However,
A cam 21 is press-fitted with ρ: length of the radius vector, ρ 0 : radius of the base circle, θ: angle of the radius vector. This cam 21 is in contact with the seat back tilting plane 12 of the upper arm 3. Further, an operating handle 23 is fixed to the terminal portion 22 of the shaft 16 on the side of the lower arm 2 with a machine screw 24. The rotation of the operating handle 23 is restricted by the cooperation of the extending portion 25 of the shaft 16 and the upright portion 26 of the sub-lower arm 2. 27 is a pendulum,
It is composed of a lower weight portion 28, side locking claws 29, and a central shaft 30. pendulum 2
The shaft 30 of No. 7 is inserted into the spacer 31 and the elongated bearing holes 32 and 33 of the lower arms 1 and 2. Further, a protrusion 34 is formed at the lower part of the shaft 30 over the entire length. That is, the cross-sectional shape of the shaft 30 is a great circle a, as shown in FIG.
(for example, radius 4 mm) and small circle b (for example, radius 0.6 mm)
and by connecting them with a straight line c and a circular arc d (for example, radius 5 mm). Furthermore, grooves 35 and 36 are formed in the lower portions of the inner circumferential surfaces of the bearing elongated holes 32 and 33 to make sliding contact with the projections 34. As shown in FIG. 5, the shapes of the bearing elongated holes 32 and 33 are the same as the figure drawn by the trajectory when the large circle a' is rotated by θ (for example, 18 degrees) about the center of the small circle b'. b' by a straight line c' and a circular arc d' that are tangent to these.
Furthermore, the distance between the centers of the great circle a and the small circle b and the center distance between the great circle a' and the small circle b' are selected to be equal, and the radius of the great circles a and a' is selected to be equal to that of the center of the great circle a and the small circle b. is selected to be slightly large (for example, 0.1 to 0.2 mm). Therefore, the projection 34 of the shaft 30 is connected to the elongated bearing hole 32,
33, the pendulum 27 can be slid within the grooves 35, 36 of the lower arms 1, 2, thereby allowing the pendulum 27 to be rotatably supported by the lower arms 1, 2. However, the counterclockwise rotation is restricted by the bending portion 37 of the sub lower arm 2. Furthermore, the great circle a of shaft 30
The straight line connecting the center of and the center of small circle b is the angle γ
The reason why it is inclined by the angle shown in FIG. 4 is to support the force from the upper arm 3 with the large circles a and a' having sufficient strength. Further, the lower arms 1 and 2 are fixed together by welding or the like after assembly.

The operation of the thus constructed embodiment apparatus will now be described. Normally, the locking pawl 29 of the pendulum 27 does not engage with the locking groove 11 of the upper arm 3, as shown in FIG. Therefore, the upper arm 3 can be moved forward until the lower surface of the arc-shaped elongated hole 10 contacts the pin 13, that is, to the position shown in parentheses in FIG. However, when the vehicle decelerates due to sudden braking or a collision, or when the vehicle leans forward on a slope, the weight 28 moves forward due to inertia and gravity, so the pendulum 27 moves clockwise. The locking claw 29 engages with the locking groove 11 by rotation. Therefore, in this case, the rotation of the upper arm 3 is restricted and cannot be moved forward.

The upper arm 3 can be tilted backward until the flat surface 12 of the upper arm 3 comes into contact with the cam 21 as a stopper. This rotation of the cam 21 can be performed by rotating the operating handle 23. Therefore, by operating the operating handle 23, the inclination angle of the atsupah arm 3 can be changed from () to () in FIG.
It can be adjusted arbitrarily within the range.

In the above explanation, the cross-sectional shape of the shaft 30 and the shape of the long bearing holes 32, 33 are such that the center distance between the large circles a, a' and the small circles b, b' is the radius of the large circles a, a'. Although a larger one is shown, it is not necessarily limited to this. For example, it may be as shown in FIG. Furthermore, although the shaft 30 is shown in which the protrusions 34 are formed over its entire length, the protrusions 34 may be formed only in the portions that contact the bearing elongated holes 32 and 33. Furthermore, although a projection 34 is formed on the shaft 30 and grooves 35 and 36 are formed in the long bearing holes 32 and 33, as shown in FIG. It is also possible to form protrusions on 32 and 33. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, it is also possible to use a pendulum 27 having a locking pawl 29 as a part of the weight portion 28, and to arrange this at the rear of the upper arm 3.

As explained above, in the inertial lock type seat according to the present invention, the sliding surface between the protrusion or groove at the lower part of the shaft of the pendulum and the groove or protrusion at the lower part of the inner peripheral surface of the elongated bearing hole is Since it can be placed close to the center of rotation, frictional torque can be drastically reduced. Therefore, it is possible to obtain an excellent response. Further, the force applied from the upper arm to the pendulum when the vehicle is decelerated is received by the large circular portion of the shaft, which has sufficient strength, rather than by a separate support mechanism. Therefore, the configuration is extremely simple. In particular, if a logarithmic spiral cam is also used, a reclining seat with a very simple structure can be obtained.
