ソレノイド配線54cは、ソレノイド52(コイル52b)と回路基板54bとの間を接続している。コイル52bから引き出されたソレノイド配線54cは、配線ガイド54fを通じてドライバハウジング54aに対して+X側まで回り込んだ後、回路基板54bに接続されている。
ドライバ配線54dは、回路基板54bから+X側に向けて引き出されている。ドライバ配線54dは、ケース10内において、スイッチ配線41bと結束された状態で、配線引出口22bを通じてケース10の外部に引き出されている。ドライバ配線54dは、ケース10の外部において、ECUに接続されている。
図3に示すように、ハンドルロック機構14は、操作部ロック機構13に対して-Z側に配置されている。図示の例において、ハンドルロック機構14は、ソレノイド52に対してZ方向から見て重なり合っている。なお、ハンドルロック機構14及びソレノイド52は、少なくとも一部がZ方向から見て重なり合っていればよい。
図4に示すように、ロータリスイッチ15は、ケース本体21に対して+X側から連結されている。ロータリスイッチ15は、操作部11の回転操作に伴い、自動二輪車に搭載されたECUに対して電源のオン信号を出力する。具体的に、ロータリスイッチ15は、スイッチハウジング15a内にロータ(不図示)や固定接点(不図示)が収納されて構成されている。
固定接点は、スイッチハウジング15aにおいて、ロータに対向する位置で、回転接点の移動軌跡上に間隔をあけて配設されている。固定接点は、ロータの回転に伴い、回転接点に接触可能に構成されている。すなわち、ロータリスイッチ15は、第1インナノブ31の回転に伴い、回転接点と固定接点とが接触すると、ECUに対して電源のオン信号を出力する。
次に、上述したハンドルロック装置1の作用について説明する。以下の説明では、操作部11(指示部33c)をハンドルロック位置P1(第1位置)から電源オン位置P3(第2位置)までの動作を順次説明する。なお、操作部11は、ハンドルロック位置P1において、第1スライダ51が係合位置、及び第2スライダ53が規制位置にあることで、回転操作が規制された状態で、X方向への移動が許容されている。
図6、図7は、認証動作を説明するための説明図であって、図5に対応する断面図である。
図5、図6に示すように、ハンドルロック装置1の認証を開始するには、ユーザが携帯機を所持した状態で、アウタノブ33を+X側に押し込む。すると、操作部11全体(インナノブ31,32及びアウタノブ33)がケース10に対して+X側に移動する。この際、操作部11は、第1スライダ51に対してX方向に相対移動することで、進入部51bがロック位置凹部35内をX方向に移動する。
以上により、認証動作が完了する。
図8~図12は、ロック解除動作を説明するための説明図であって、図8は図2に対応する正面図、図9、図10は図4に対応する断面図、図11、図12は図5に対応する断面図である。
図8に示すように、認証動作の完了後、操作部11を電源オフ位置P2まで移動させ、ハンドルロックを解除する。具体的には、操作部11を図8で示す時計回りに回転させる。すると、操作部11全体が周方向に回転する。この際、図9に示すように、操作部11の回転に伴い、ロック位置凹部35が周方向に移動することで、ロック位置凹部35の内側面35a上を第1スライダ51の進入部51bが摺動する。これにより、第1スライダ51は、操作部11の回転に伴い、第1付勢部材55の付勢力に抗して+Z側(回転軸線O1の径方向)に移動する。進入部51bがロック位置凹部35から離脱した後、さらに操作部11を回転させると、第1スライダ51がスライダ係合部31bの外周面上に乗り上げる。これにより、第1スライダ51が係合解除位置となる。
図13~図15は、電源オン操作を説明するための説明図であって、図13は図2に対応する正面図、図14は図4に対応する断面図、図15は図5に対応する断面図である。 次に、図13に示すように、電源オフ位置P2から電源オン位置P3に向け、操作部11を図13で示す時計回りに回転させる。操作部11の回転に伴い、オフ位置凹部36が周方向に移動することで、オフ位置凹部36の内側面36a上を第1スライダ51の進入部51bが摺動する。これにより、第1スライダ51は、操作部11の回転に伴い、第1付勢部材55の付勢力に抗して+Z側(回転軸線O1の径方向)に移動する。進入部51bがオフ位置凹部36から離脱した後、さらに操作部11を回転させると、第1スライダ51がスライダ係合部31bの外周面上に乗り上げる。これにより、第1スライダ51が係合解除位置となる。第1スライダ51が係合解除位置に移動した状態で、操作部11をさらに回転させると、進入部51bがスライダ係合部31bの外周面上を摺動しながら、操作部11が回転する。これにより、操作部11が電源オン位置P3となる。
この構成によれば、互いに交差する2方向に移動する2つのスライダ51,53によって操作部11の回転を規制するので、自動二輪車に入力される外力による影響を受け難い。すなわち、本実施形態のハンドルロック装置1では、第2スライダ53が規制解除位置に移動した後、第1スライダ51が係合解除位置に移動しなければ操作部11の回転が許容されない。そのため、従来のように係止爪の回動によって操作部11の回転を規制する構成に比べ、操作部11が回転できる状態に予期せず移行するのを抑制できる。
このように、本実施形態のハンドルロック装置1は、第2スライダ53の位置によって第1スライダ51の移動の規制及び許容を切り替えるので、ソレノイド52で発生する電磁力を大きくする必要がない。よって、ソレノイド52の大型化を抑制した上で、防盗性を向上させることができる。そして、ソレノイド52の大型化を抑制できるので、製造コストの増加や重量の増加、車体への取付性の低下等を抑制できる。
この構成によれば、自動二輪車に入力される外力によって第2スライダ53が規制解除位置に移行し難くなる。そのため、防盗性の更なる向上を図ることができる。
この構成によれば、操作部11の回転操作に伴い、第1スライダ51を移動させることができるとともに、操作部11の回転位置に応じて第1スライダ51の移動を規制又は許容できる。すなわち、2つのスライダ51,53それぞれに対して別々の駆動機構を設ける必要がない。そのため、スライダ51,53の増加に伴う駆動電力の増加や構成の複雑化等を抑制できる。
この構成によれば、上述したように操作部11が予期せず移行するのを抑制できるので、ハンドルロック機構14がロック位置及びロック解除位置間を予期せず移行するのを抑制できる。
以上、本発明の好ましい実施例を説明したが、本発明はこれら実施例に限定されることはない。本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で、構成の付加、省略、置換、及びその他の変更が可能である。本発明は前述した説明によって限定されることはなく、添付の特許請求の範囲によってのみ限定される。
上述した実施形態では、操作部11がX方向に移動することで、認証動作を行う構成について説明したが、この構成に限られない。例えば操作部11がZ方向に移動して認証動作を行う構成であってもよい。
上述した実施形態では、第2付勢部材58を備える構成について説明したが、第2付勢部材58を備えない構成であってもよい。
上述した実施形態では、ハンドルロック機構14と第1スライダ51がX方向で異なる位置に配置された構成について説明したが、この構成に限られない。ハンドルロック機構14と第1スライダ51は、X方向で同じ位置(Y方向やZ方向でずれた位置)配置されていてもよい。
上述した実施形態では、操作部11の回転に伴い第1スライダ51を係合解除位置に移動させる構成について説明したが、この構成に限られない。例えば、第2スライダ53の規制解除位置に向けた移動に伴い、第1スライダ51を係合解除位置に向けて移動させてもよい。
この構成によれば、上述したように操作部11が予期せず移行するのを抑制できるので、開閉体操作許可機構がクローズ位置及びオープン位置間を予期せず移行するのを抑制できる。
この構成においても、上述したように操作部11が予期せず移行するのを抑制できるので、車両電源スイッチ機構がオン位置及びオフ位置間を予期せず移行するのを抑制できる。
