The present invention relates to a structure for fixing the open position of a spare tire carrier of an automobile, in particular, to maintain the open state of the carrier when replacing the spare tire to facilitate the tire replacement work as well as to open the carrier to prevent safety accidents A position fixing structure.

In general, the spare tire carrier is connected to the upper and lower hinges 11 and 12 fixed to the vehicle body as shown in the first and second degrees, and the upper and lower hinges 11 and 12 are rotatably connected by pins 13, respectively. U-shaped carrier 14, a support plate 15 fixed to the carrier 14, and a plurality of screw holes 17 formed on the support plate 15 to fix the spare tire 16, The back door 18 is provided inside the carrier 14 at the rear side of the vehicle body.

Therefore, when the spare tire 16 is replaced, the carrier 14 is opened outwardly around the pin 13 of the hinges 11 and 12 to separate the spare tire 16 from the support plate 15 and to carry the carrier 14. The spare tire is replaced by fixing the other tire to the support plate 15 of.

However, in the related art, when the vehicle is inclined and stopped on an inclined surface, the carrier 14 is caused by its own weight when the rear of the vehicle is inclined to one side (the opposite direction of the hinge to which the back door 18 is connected) or is positioned higher than the front side. There was a problem of frequent safety accidents due to the rapid closing of the back door 18. Also, the carrier 14 is rapidly closed to the back door 18 during the replacement of the spare tire, thereby making it difficult to remove and install the spare tire 16. Had a disadvantage.

An object of the present invention is to prevent the risk of safety accidents and to perform the operation conveniently by preventing the carrier from being closed in the open state of the carrier for the tire replacement on the inclined road surface or uneven road or the water field, unloading work.

The present invention is characterized in that the insertion pin is formed through the one side of the hinge to achieve this purpose, and the locking pin is inserted into the insertion hole in the state in which the carrier is open to prevent the carrier from being closed to the back door by the locking pin.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a bottom view of the melted tire of the spare tire carrier, and FIG. 3 is a plan view of the main parts of the spare tire carrier of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of FIG. 3 with upper and lower hinges 11 and 12 fixed to the vehicle body. The support plate 15 fixed to the carrier 14 and the U-shaped carrier 14 connected to each of the upper and lower hinges 11 and 12 so as to be rotatable by the pins 13, and a plurality of the support plate 15 A screw hole 17 formed to fix the spare tire 16 and an insertion hole formed through the hinge 11 so as not to be closed to the back door 18 in a state in which the carrier 14 is opened at a right angle from the vehicle body. The locking pin 20 inserted into the insertion hole 19 and the carrier 14 contacts, and the upper end of the locking pin 20 so that the locking pin 20 is caught on the upper surface of the hinge 11 so as not to be separated. It is composed of a locking projection 21 formed in.

Therefore, when the spare tire 16 is replaced while the vehicle is parked and stopped on the inclined or uneven road surface, the carrier 14 is opened outwardly about the pins 13 of the hinges 11 and 12. At the same time, when the locking pin 20 is inserted into the insertion hole 19 of the hinge 11, the carrier 14 is closed by its own weight toward the back door 18, but the carrier 14 is no longer supported by the locking pin 20. In this state, the spare tire 16 is removed from the support plate 15 of the carrier 14, and the spare tire is replaced by fixing another tire to the support plate 15 of the carrier 14. .

Replacement of the spare tire 16 is completed and the carrier 14 is slightly rotated in the opposite direction of the locking pin 20 (in the direction of continuing to open the carrier 14), and the locking pin 20 is hinged (11). When the locking means of the carrier 14 is released from the insertion hole 19 of the), the carrier 14 is closed to the back door 18 of the vehicle body.

As described above, the present invention rotates a certain amount of the carrier and inserts a locking pin into the insertion hole of the hinge, thereby placing the vehicle on an inclined or uneven surface, thereby preventing the carrier from being closed by its own weight, thereby making it easy to replace the spare tire. It can be carried out in addition to preventing accidents during the tire replacement work.

Claims (2)

And an insertion hole formed in a hinge to which the carrier is pivotally connected, and a locking pin inserted into the insertion hole while the carrier is opened to prevent the carrier from being closed. The structure of claim 1, wherein the insertion hole is formed at a position at which the carrier is opened at a right angle from the vehicle body.
