Description

차량의 센터콘솔 잠금장치{A Locking Apparatus for Center Console of the Vehicle}A Locking Apparatus for Center Console of the Vehicle}

본 발명은 차량의 센터콘솔에 관한 것으로, 특히 차량에 충격이 가해졌을 경우 센터콘솔의 트레이커버가 쉽게 개방되는 것을 방지하여 탑승자의 안전을 향상시킬 수 있도록 된 차량의 센터콘솔 잠금장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a center console of a vehicle, and more particularly, to a center console locking device of a vehicle that can improve the safety of occupants by preventing the tray cover of the center console from being easily opened when an impact is applied to the vehicle.

일반적으로 차량의 중앙부에 위치되는 센터콘솔은 변속레버를 감싸는 한편, 각종 물건의 수납을 위한 수납공간이 마련되어 있는 바, 이러한 센터콘솔의 수납공간은 크게 트레이커버와 중간트레이 및 하부트레이로 구분할 수 있다.In general, the center console located at the center of the vehicle wraps the shift lever and is provided with a storage space for storing various objects. The storage space of the center console can be largely divided into a tray cover, an intermediate tray and a lower tray. .

한편, 상기 센터콘솔에는 통상 사용자의 편의성을 극대화시키기 위해 자력을 이용한 잠금장치가 구비되는데, 이 잠금장치는 탑승자의 편의성을 위해서는 자력의 세기를 크지 않게 하여 개방성을 양호하게 하는 것이 바람직하다.On the other hand, the center console is usually provided with a locking device using a magnetic force to maximize the user's convenience, the locking device is preferably to improve the openness by not increasing the strength of the magnetic force for the convenience of the occupants.

하지만 사용자의 안전과 법규적인 측면에서 보면, 차량에 충격(급정지, 급출발, 충/추돌 사고 등)이 가해졌을 경우, 쉽게 트레이커버가 개방되면 트레이 내부의 물건이 유출될 가능성이 커지는 문제점이 있었다.However, in terms of the safety and legal aspects of the user, when a shock (fast stop, sudden start, collision / collision, etc.) is applied to the vehicle, there is a problem that the inside of the tray is more likely to leak when the tray cover is easily opened.

이에 본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 발명된 것으로, 평상시에는 가벼운 힘만으로 트레이커버를 개방할 수 있는 한편, 차량에 충격이 가해졌을 경우에는 자력의 세기가 증가되어 트레이커버가 쉽게 개방되는 것을 방지할 수 있도록 된 차량의 센터콘솔 잠금장치를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been invented to solve the above problems, which can normally open the tray cover with only a light force, when the impact is applied to the vehicle, the strength of the magnetic force is increased to easily open the tray cover. It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle center console lock that can be prevented.

이하 본 발명을 첨부된 예시도면을 참조로 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 센터콘솔의 개략적 정면도이고, 도 2는 도 1의 A-A선 단면도이며, 도 3a는 도 2의 B부분 확대도로서 볼베어링에 관성력이 작용하기 전 상태의 모습을 도시한 도면이고, 도 3b는 볼베어링에 관성력이 발생한 후의 모습을 도시한 도면이다.1 is a schematic front view of a center console according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3A is an enlarged view of a portion B of FIG. 2, showing a state before inertial force acts on the ball bearing. 3B is a view showing a state after inertia force is generated in the ball bearing.

본 발명은 트레이커버(1)와 중간트레이(2) 및 하부트레이(3) 등으로 이루어진 차량의 센터콘솔에 있어서, 상기 트레이커버(1)의 양측면에는 금속재질의 상부플레이트(1a)가 구비되고, 상기 중간트레이(2)의 상부면에는 상기 상부플레이트(1a)와 맞닿으면서 일측은 폐쇄되고 타측은 개방된 채널(2c)이 부착되며, 이 채널(2c)의 내부에는 원형의 금속구인 볼베어링(2d)이 내재되고, 상기 중간트레이(2)의 양측면에는 상기 상부플레이트(1a)와 맞닿도록 금속재질의 하부플레이트(2a)가 설치되고, 이 하부플레이트(2a)의 내부에는 자석(2b)이 구비되어 이루어진다.The present invention is a center console of a vehicle consisting of a tray cover (1), an intermediate tray (2), a lower tray (3), etc., on both sides of the tray cover (1) is provided with a metal upper plate (1a) On the upper surface of the intermediate tray 2, one side is closed while the other side is contacted with the upper plate 1a, and the other side is attached with an open channel 2c, and a ball bearing which is a circular metal ball inside the channel 2c. (2d) is built-in, the lower plate (2a) of the metal material is provided on both sides of the intermediate tray (2) to abut the upper plate (1a), the magnet 2b inside the lower plate (2a) This is provided.

이하 본 발명의 작동을 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention will be described in detail.

본 발명에 따르면 평상시에는 미리 설정된 세기의 자력을 가진 자석(2b)에 의해 금속재질로 이루어진 상부플레이트(1a)와 하부플레이트(2a) 사이에는 트레이커버(1)를 개방하기 알맞을 정도의 인력이 작용하게 된다.According to the present invention, an attractive force suitable for opening the tray cover 1 is normally operated between the upper plate 1a and the lower plate 2a made of metal by a magnet 2b having a magnetic force of a predetermined strength. Done.

한편 차량에 충격(급정지, 급출발, 충/추돌 사고 등)이 가해지게 되면, 상기 채널(2c)에 내재된 볼베어링(2d)에는 충격방향과 반대방향의 관성력이 작용하게 되고, 이에 따라 볼베어링(2d)은 도 3b에서 보는 바와 같이, 관성력이 작용하는 방향을 따라 채널(2c)의 개방된 부분으로 이동하여 하부플레이트(2a)에 접촉하게 된다.On the other hand, when the vehicle is subjected to shock (emergency stop, sudden start, collision / collision accident, etc.), the inertia force in the opposite direction to the impact direction acts on the ball bearing 2d embedded in the channel 2c, and thus the ball bearing 2d As shown in FIG. 3B, the inertia force moves to an open portion of the channel 2c along the direction in which the inertial force acts and contacts the lower plate 2a.

이에 따라 상기 볼베어링(2d)과 접촉된 채널(2c)은 보다 큰 자성을 띠게 되어 전체적으로 상부플레이트(1a)에 작용하는 자력의 세기가 커지게 되면서 외부의 충격으로부터 트레이커버(1)가 쉽게 개방되는 것을 방지하게 된다.Accordingly, the channel (2c) in contact with the ball bearing (2d) has a greater magnetic force and the strength of the magnetic force acting on the upper plate (1a) as a whole increases, the tray cover (1) is easily opened from the external impact Will be prevented.

이상 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명에 따르면, 중간트레이의 상부면에 볼베어링이 내재된 채널이 설치되어, 이 채널의 볼베어링이 차량에 가해지는 충격방향과 반대방향인 관성력이 작용하는 방향으로 이동하여 채널 전체에 자력이 커져 결과적으로 트레이커버의 자력을 높임으로써 트레이커버가 외부의 충격에 의해 쉽게 개방되는 것을 방지하여 탑승자의 안전을 확보할 수 있는 효과가 있으며, 관련법규에도 적합한 센터콘솔을 제공하는 효과가 있다.As described above, according to the present invention, a channel having a ball bearing embedded in the upper surface of the intermediate tray is installed, and the ball bearing of the channel moves in a direction in which an inertial force acting in a direction opposite to the impact direction applied to the vehicle is applied to the entire channel. As the magnetic force is increased, the magnetic force of the tray cover is increased. As a result, the tray cover is prevented from being easily opened by an external impact, thereby securing the occupant's safety. .
