Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle locking device provided in a vehicle for the purpose of locking a load collapse prevention net, a rope, and a hook or other locking tool provided on the net.

  Locks for vehicles for the purpose of locking nets to prevent collapse of cargo (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as “net”), ropes, hooks and other locking devices provided in the interior of the vehicle, particularly the luggage compartment Often equipment is provided. For example, a vehicle locking device having U-shaped hooks that can lock hooks provided at four corners of a net is often provided on the inner wall surface or floor surface of the vehicle. That is, the luggage loaded in the luggage compartment is covered with a net and pressed, and hooks provided at the four corners of the net are hooked on U-shaped hooks of the vehicle locking device to fix the net, thereby loading the luggage in the luggage compartment. It is possible to prevent the movement of left luggage. At this time, if the net is formed of a soft and elastic material, even a relatively bulky baggage can be covered and fixed in all directions to be securely fixed.

An example of the vehicle locking device as described above is disclosed in Patent Document 1. An outline of the vehicle locking device disclosed in Patent Document 1 is shown in FIG. The vehicle locking device includes a housing 30 attached to the vehicle body panel, and a mooring portion 31 (corresponding to the U-shaped hook) pivotally supported by the housing 30. The housing 30 is provided with a recess 32 that surrounds the mooring portion 31 when the mooring portion 31 is disposed at the storage position. Further, the mooring portion 31 is formed with a protrusion 33 that extends in a substantially vertical direction when the mooring portion 31 is disposed at the use position. The protrusion 33 abuts on the bottom of the housing 30 when the mooring portion 31 is disposed at the storage position, and functions as a stopper that restricts the rotation of the mooring portion 31. Due to the presence of the protrusion 33, the mooring portion 31 in the storage position is held substantially in the same plane as the surface of the housing 30, and the load collides with the surface of the mooring portion 31, or inadvertently enters the housing 30 due to an impact. It is possible to avoid a situation such as intrusion or jumping up from the housing 30.
JP 2002-339939 A

  In the conventional vehicle locking device, the unit and the vehicle interior material on which the device is mounted have a unified feeling to improve the design, and the load and the U-shaped hook are prevented from interfering with each other. For this reason, a configuration is adopted in which the U-shaped hook when not in use is buried in the housing and does not protrude toward the vehicle interior side. Even in the vehicle locking device disclosed in Patent Document 1, the mooring portion 31 in the storage position is completely stored in the recess 32 of the housing 30 formed to have substantially the same dimensions as the mooring portion 31, and the mooring portion The outer periphery of 31 is surrounded by the housing 30.

  Since the conventional vehicle locking device has the above-described configuration, it is very troublesome to take out the U-shaped hook from the housing and rotate it to the use position. That is, when the U-shaped hook is buried in the housing, there is no clue when the U-shaped hook is removed from the housing, and it is very difficult to remove the U-shaped hook. In order to solve this problem, in the vehicle locking device disclosed in Patent Document 1, a protrusion 34 is formed on the mooring portion 31 and a notch 35 is formed on an end portion of the housing 30 (see FIG. 12). ). However, if the protrusions 34 and the cutouts 35 are made larger, there is a risk that they will interfere with the load and cause damage or deformation. On the other hand, if the protrusion 34 and the notch 35 are made small, the difficulty of taking out the mooring part 31 is not eliminated, and the intended purpose is not achieved. In addition, the vehicle locking devices are usually provided at least in four places in the cargo compartment, and it is very troublesome to manually take out all the mooring portions of the plurality of vehicle locking devices. There was a need for improvement.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and its purpose is to provide good and convenient operability when the stored locking portion is rotated to the use position without protruding toward the vehicle interior side. It is providing the outstanding locking device for vehicles.

  The vehicle locking device of the present invention that achieves the above object includes a housing and a locking device provided on the housing so as to be rotatable between a storage position and a use position. In the present invention, there is provided a rotating means for rotating the locking portion in the storage position toward the use position. According to the vehicle locking device of the present invention having such a feature, it is possible to avoid interference with a load or the like by making the device and the vehicle inner surface on which the device is mounted flush with each other, and to improve the design. In addition to being possible, it is not necessary to provide protrusions or cutouts in order to make it easy to pick out the locking portion.

  As an example of the rotation means, a biasing member that biases the locking portion so that the locking portion in the storage position is rotated toward the use position, and the locking portion in the storage position is locked. And a regulating member that regulates the rotation of the locking portion against urging by the urging member, and an operating means that displaces the regulating member and releases the locking between the regulating member and the locking portion. A configured first rotating means is mentioned. According to such a rotation means, it is possible to automatically rotate the locking portion at the storage position to the use position only by operating the operation means.

  Further, the operating means constituting the first rotating means is capable of reciprocating in a predetermined direction and, when displaced in one direction, displaces the regulating member in a direction crossing the displacement direction. Is desirable.

  The first rotating means further includes a second urging member for urging the restricting member so that the restricting member is engaged with the engaging portion, and the operating means includes the second urging member. It is desirable that the regulating member be displaced against the urging by the urging member.

  Moreover, it is desirable to further include a stopping means for temporarily stopping the rotation of the locking portion between the storage position and the use position. The stopping means is a convex portion protruding from the restricting member so as to be locked to the locking portion when the locking portion is rotated to a predetermined position set between the storage position and the use position. It is desirable.

  As another example of the rotating means, a movable member that applies stress to the engaging portion so that the engaging portion in the storage position is rotated toward the use position, and an operating means that operates the movable member. The 2nd rotation means comprised from these is mentioned. According to such a rotating means, it is possible to easily pick up the locking portion rotated (raised) toward the use position and easily turn it to the use position, and to easily pick up the locking portion. It is no longer necessary to provide protrusions or notches. Furthermore, the operation for raising the locking portion is a simple operation that only operates the operating means.

  When the movable member constituting the second rotating means is displaced in a predetermined direction by the operating means, it applies stress to the locking portion to rotate (raise) the locking portion. Is desirable.

  In addition, it is preferable that a biasing member that biases the movable member is further provided, and the operation unit displaces the movable member in a predetermined direction against the biasing by the biasing unit.

  Further, it is desirable to further include holding means for holding the locking portion rotated by the second rotating means at that position. As the holding means, the locking portion is freely rotated by contacting the rotating shaft that is rotatably held by the housing and rotates as the locking portion rotates, thereby restricting the rotation of the rotating shaft. It is desirable to hold it in position.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to realize a vehicular locking device that has excellent operability when rotating the locking portion stored without protruding toward the interior of the vehicle to the use position and is extremely convenient. can do.

Hereinafter, each member will be specifically described.

  The U-shaped hook 2 includes a hook portion 2a that can be hooked with a net hook, the net itself, or a rope, and a pair of arms 2b and 2b 'that extend substantially at right angles from both ends of the hook portion 2a. And has a substantially U-shaped planar shape as a whole. An insertion hole 2c into which the shaft 3 is rotatably inserted is formed at the end of each arm 2b, 2b '. Further, a cylindrical portion 2d extending toward the other arm 2b 'is integrally formed at the periphery of the insertion hole 2c of one arm 2b, and the internal space of the cylindrical portion 2d is the insertion hole 2c of the arm 2b. Communicated with. Further, the latching portion 2a is formed with a concave groove 2e in which a locking projection 7a projecting from the regulating member 7 can be locked (see FIG. 4). The material and manufacturing method of the U-shaped hook 2 are not limited to specific materials and manufacturing methods, but a relatively light and rigid aluminum casting is preferably used. Moreover, the latching | locking part of this invention is provided with the said structure, and if the net hook, net | network itself, or a rope etc. can be hooked, the shape is not limited to U shape.

  The U-shaped hook 2 is pivotally supported by the housing 10 when the shaft 3 is inserted into an insertion hole 2 c communicating with a through hole 10 b opened in an ear portion 10 a formed at an end of the housing 10. . The U-shaped hook 2 pivotally supported by the housing 10 is automatically rotated to the use position by the urging force of the rotation spring 4 wound around the shaft 3 when the button 8 is pushed when in the retracted position. And get up almost vertically. On the other hand, when the U-shaped hook 2 in the use position is rotated to the storage position by the user, it is automatically fixed to the storage position under the restriction of the restriction member 7. Here, the storage position means a state in which the U-shaped hook 2 lies down on the base 10c formed in the housing 10 and the surface of the U-shaped hook 2 and the surface of the guide member 9 are substantially flush with each other. . Further, the use position means a state in which the U-shaped hook 2 stands substantially perpendicular to the housing 10. FIG. 2 shows an external perspective view when the U-shaped hook 2 is in the retracted position, and FIG. 3 shows an external perspective view when the U-shaped hook 2 is in the use position. A specific mechanism and its operation for rotating the U-shaped hook 2 between the storage position and the use position as described above will be described in detail later.

  Referring again to FIG. 1, the button 8 is exposed on the upper surface of the vehicle locking device 1 </ b> A, and is pressed downward from the pressing surface 8 a that is pressed by the user and from both sides of the pressing surface 8 a. Leg 8b. Further, the leg portion 8b is formed with an inclined surface 8c formed at an angle capable of contacting the inclined surface 7b formed on the regulating member 7. The material and manufacturing method of the button 8 are not limited to specific materials and manufacturing methods, but nylon injection-molded products are preferably used.

  As described above, the restricting member 7 is formed with the locking projection 7a that can be locked in the concave groove 2e formed in the hooking portion 2a of the U-shaped hook 2, and is in contact with the inclined surface 8c of the button 8. A possible slope 7b is formed. Further, the restricting member 7 includes a convex portion 7c formed so as to abut on the cylindrical portion 2d of the U-shaped hook 2 when the restricting member 7 is in a predetermined position. Further, the restricting member 7 is formed with a locking projection 7d that can be locked with the locking collar portion 10h of the housing 10. Although the material and manufacturing method of the regulating member 7 are not limited to specific materials and manufacturing methods, an injection molded product of ABS resin is preferably used.

  The guide member 9 has a hollow structure in which the restricting member 7 and the button 8 can be incorporated, and the restricting member 7 can be slid back and forth in the up and down direction, and the restricting member 7 in the left and right direction (direction orthogonal to the sliding direction of the button 8) Guide to reciprocating slide. Further, the guide member 9 incorporates a push spring 6 that constantly urges the restricting member 7 toward the latching portion 2a of the U-shaped hook 2 in the retracted position. The locking projection 7a of the restricting member 7 biased by the push spring 6 is fitted in the concave groove 2e of the U-shaped hook 2 in the retracted position, and the U-shaped hook is resisted against the biasing by the rotating spring 4. 2 is fixed at the storage position. Further, the guide member 9 is formed with a pair of elastic locking claws 9a for fixing the guide member 9 to the housing 10 by engaging with the concave grooves 10g formed on both inner surfaces of the partition wall 10e of the housing 10. ing. The material and manufacturing method of the guide member 9 are not limited to a specific material or manufacturing method, but an injection molded product of polypropylene resin containing 20% talc as a filler is preferably used.

  The housing 10 includes a partition wall 10e that forms a recess 10d that can accommodate the guide member 9 in which the regulating member 7, the button 8, and the like are incorporated, in addition to the configuration already mentioned. The pedestal 10c described above is provided outside the partition wall 10e, and the U-shaped hook 2 in the storage position is placed on the pedestal 10c. Further, a bolt hole (not shown) into which a bolt 11 for fixing the vehicle locking device 1A at a predetermined position inside the vehicle body is inserted is formed on the bottom surface of the housing 10. A positioning projection 10f is provided on the bottom surface of the housing 10, and the positioning projection 10f is inserted and fixed in a fitting hole formed at a predetermined position inside the vehicle, whereby the vehicle locking device 1A is provided. Can be reliably positioned to prevent rattling and abnormal noise.

  Next, the operation of the vehicle locking device 1A will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 2, that is, a vertical cross-sectional view of the vehicle locking device 1A when the U-shaped hook 2 is in the retracted position. FIG. 5 is an external perspective view of the vehicle locking device 1A in a state where the button 8 is pushed. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB in FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 3, that is, a vertical cross-sectional view of the vehicle locking device 1A when the U-shaped hook 2 is in the use position.

  Referring to FIG. 4, when the U-shaped hook 2 is in the retracted position, the locking protrusion 7a of the regulating member 7 biased by the pressing spring 6 is locked (fitted) to the concave groove 2e of the latching portion 2a. is doing. As a result, the U-shaped hook 2 is fixed in the retracted position against the biasing force of the rotating spring 4. At this time, the urging force of the rotary spring 4 is transmitted to the locking projection 7a of the restricting member 7 via the U-shaped hook 2, but the locking projection 7d is engaged with the locking collar portion 10h of the housing 10. In this structure, the urging force of the rotating spring 4 is received. Therefore, the urging force is hardly transmitted to the guide member 9, and the guide member 9 does not rattle against the housing 10. When the button 8 shown in FIG. 4 is pushed in as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the slope 8c formed on the leg portion 8b of the button 8 and the slope of the regulating member 7 formed substantially parallel to the slope 8c. 7b slide with each other, and the button 8 is displaced downward. Then, the regulating member 7 slides inside the guide member 9 in a direction away from the latching portion 2a of the U-shaped hook 2 (a direction perpendicular to the pushing direction of the button 8), and the locking projection 7a and the concave groove 2e Is released. As a result, the U-shaped hook 2 starts to rotate by the urging force of the rotating spring 4 (FIG. 4). Thereafter, when the U-shaped hook 2 is rotated to an intermediate position (an arbitrary position set between the storage position and the use position, in this example, the position shown in FIG. 6), the cylindrical portion 2d of the U-shaped hook 2 is used. The flat surface 2f formed in the contact with the convex portion 7c formed on the restricting member 7 stops the rotation of the U-shaped hook 2 once. Thereby, when the user pushes the button 8 and performs an operation of rotating the U-shaped hook 2 to the use position, the U-shaped hook 2 hits the user's finger pressing the button 8 to be injured. It is possible to avoid feeling uncomfortable. Furthermore, since the above-described damper 5 (FIG. 1) is assembled to the shaft 3 which is the rotation axis of the U-shaped hook 2, the rotational speed of the U-shaped hook 2 can be adjusted continuously or stepwise. Is possible.

  When the push of the button 8 is released after the rotation of the U-shaped hook 2 has stopped once as described above, the restricting member 7 is urged by the push spring 6 (FIG. 4) to cause the cylindrical portion 2d of the U-shaped hook 2 to move. Since it slides in the direction away from (returns to the position shown in FIG. 4), the locking of the convex portion 7c and the flat surface 2f is released. As a result, the U-shaped hook 2 starts to rotate again, and rotates to the use position and stops as shown in FIG.

  Here, a concave portion 2g as shown in FIG. 8 is formed in the cylindrical portion 2d of the U-shaped hook 2, and the bottom surface of the concave portion 2g is a tapered surface 2h as shown in FIG. The rotation of the U-shaped hook 2 can also be stopped at one end by forming a claw shape that can engage the tapered surface 2h. According to the configuration shown in FIG. 8, malfunctions are reduced compared to the above configuration in which the convex portion 7c is brought into contact with the flat surface 2f formed in the cylindrical portion 2d. Note that the convex portion 7c shown in FIG. 6 and the convex portion 7c shown in FIG. 8 have different shapes and positions. However, such a difference is accompanied by a change in the cylindrical portion 2d which is a contact / locking partner, and is not a difference related to the essence of the present invention. Therefore, the shape and structure of the convex part 7c and the cylindrical part 2d with which it abuts and locks are not limited to the illustrated shape and structure, and the illustrated one is only an example.

2 and 4, in the vehicle locking device 1A of this example, when the U-shaped hook 2 is in the retracted position, the surface of the U-shaped hook 2 and the guide member 9 and The surface of the button 8 is substantially flush. That is, the upper surface of the vehicle locking device 1A is flush. Accordingly, by embedding the vehicle locking device 1A in a recess formed in advance on the vehicle body panel or the interior member that covers the vehicle body panel, a luggage fixing net, rope, or the like can be engaged without forming irregularities in the vehicle interior. It becomes possible to equip the cargo compartment with a hook for stopping. This improves the aesthetics of the luggage compartment, and when loading a load in the luggage compartment, there is a risk that part of the locking device may interfere with the load and damage or deform the locking device or the load. There is no excellent effect. In addition, the U-shaped hook 2 in the storage position can be automatically rotated to the use position simply by pressing the button 8. Therefore, the troublesome and troublesome operation of picking out the hook and rotating it to the use position as in the conventional locking device becomes unnecessary, and the convenience is greatly improved. Furthermore, it is possible to produce a high-class feeling at a low cost.
(Embodiment 2)
Another example of the embodiment of the vehicle locking device of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. However, the basic configuration of the vehicle locking device 1B of this example is the same as that of the vehicle locking device 1A of the first embodiment. Therefore, about the same structure, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected in FIGS. 9-11, description is abbreviate | omitted, and only a difference is demonstrated in detail here.

  The main difference between the vehicle locking device 1B of this example and the vehicle locking device 1A of the first embodiment is a mechanism for rotating and stopping the U-shaped hook 2. In this example, the shaft 3 inserted into the insertion hole 2 c of the U-shaped hook 2 is fixed to the insertion hole 2 c, and the end of the shaft 3 is rotatably held by the ear portion 10 a of the housing 10. That is, the U-shaped hook 2 in the first embodiment is rotated about the shaft 3 fixed to the housing 10 as a rotation axis. In this example, the shaft 3 is fixed to the U-shaped hook 2, and the shaft 3 is U-shaped. It rotates (autorotates) together with the letter-shaped hook 2. Then, the U-shaped hook 2 assembled so as to be rotatable with respect to the housing 10 as described above is rotated by the movable member 20 that slides in conjunction with the operation of the button 8 and rises to a predetermined angle. Hereinafter, this mechanism will be described more specifically.

  As shown in FIG. 9, a slope 20 b similar to the slope 7 b of the regulating member 7 is formed on the side of the movable member 20. In addition, the movable member 20 is provided with a pushing portion 20 c that is not provided on the regulating member 7. The movable member 20 is always urged in the direction of the latching portion 2a of the U-shaped hook 2 in the retracted position by the urging of the push spring 6, and the button 8 is not pushed in as shown in FIG. Then, the pushing portion 20 c is separated from the U-shaped hook 2. On the other hand, when the button 8 is pushed, the slope 8c formed on the leg portion 8b of the button 8 and the slope 20b formed on the movable member 20 slide with each other, and the button 8 is displaced downward. Then, a stress in a direction opposite to the biasing direction of the push spring 6 is applied to the movable member 20 by the button 8 displaced downward. As a result, as shown in FIG. 11, the movable member 20 moves away from the latching portion 2a of the U-shaped hook 2 against the urging force of the pressing spring 6 (FIG. 9) (to the cylindrical portion 2d of the U-shaped hook). The pushing portion 20c comes into contact with the cylindrical portion 2d. When the button 8 is further pushed, the pressing portion 20c is pressed by the cylindrical portion 2d, and a stress is applied to the cylindrical portion 20d so as to rotate the U-shaped hook 2 toward the use position. As described above, the U-shaped hook 2 lying on the base 10c of the housing 10 (the U-shaped hook 2 in the retracted position) rotates and rises to a predetermined position. Thereafter, the U-shaped hook 2 that has risen may be picked with a finger and rotated to the use position.

  In this example, the cylindrical portion 2d is formed on the arm 2b 'of the U-shaped hook 2, and a receiving portion 2d' with which the pressing portion 20c abuts is projected on the outer peripheral surface thereof. On the other hand, in the first embodiment, the cylindrical portion 2d is formed on the arm 2b opposite to the arm 2b '. However, it is not an essential matter which cylinder part 2d is formed on, and the cylinder part 2d in this example can also be formed on the arm 2b.

  Furthermore, the vehicle locking device 1B of the present example is provided with holding means for holding the U-shaped hook 2 in its rotating position even when the button 8 is released. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, a leaf spring 21 having a substantially U-shaped cross section is assembled to the shaft 3. The leaf spring 21 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 3 by its own elastic restoring force and restricts the rotation of the shaft 3. That is, when the push of the button 8 is released and the U-shaped hook 2 tries to fall (turn) in the storage position direction due to its own weight, rotational torque acts on the shaft 3. However, since the shaft 3 is sandwiched and fixed by the leaf spring 21, it does not rotate and the rotation of the U-shaped hook 2 is restricted.

  The leaf spring 21 always regulates the rotation of the shaft 3, but by pushing the button 8, the restriction of the leaf spring 21 can be broken and the U-shaped hook 2 (shaft 3) can be rotated. Of course. In other words, the fixing force of the shaft 3 by the leaf spring 21 does not allow the rotation of the shaft 3 with a rotational torque about the weight of the U-shaped hook 2, but allows the rotation of the shaft 3 when more rotational torque acts. It is set to an extent. According to such a configuration, it is possible to adjust the rising amount (rotation amount) of the U-shaped hook 2 by changing the pressing amount of the button 8.

  However, if the U-shaped hook 2 is picked while the push of the button 8 is maintained, the U-shaped hook will not fall down due to its own weight. Therefore, the holding means is intended to further improve convenience and can be omitted.
