Description

  The present invention relates to a handle and lock body used for an opening / closing body such as a storage box having a rotating portion such as a lid and a non-rotating portion such as a housing.

  FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example in which the handle and lock body of the present invention is applied to an opening / closing body, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a rotating portion of the opening / closing body opened.

  A large storage box 15 that is an opening / closing body to which the handle / locking body 10 of the present invention is applied includes a lid 16 that is a rotating part and a casing 17 that is a non-rotating part.

  FIGS. 13 and 14 show the structure of a conventional lock body. The base 2 is fixed to the lid 16 and the hook 3 is fixed to the housing 17. The cover 1 is attached to the base 2 via a link 7 pivotally supported by the base shaft 21. A link shaft 82 pivotally supports the cover 1 on the link 7. The arm 6 is attached to the upper end of the cover 1 via a cover shaft 81. The cover shaft 81 is biased toward the base 2 by an arm spring 64.

  When closing the lock body, if the cover 1 is rotated counterclockwise, the cover 1 and the arm 6 are lifted against the arm spring 64 via the link 7, and the tip engaging portion 62 of the arm 6 is The engaging portion 41 of the temporary locking lever 4 that engages with the engaging portion 32 of the hook 3 and is attached to the lower end of the cover 1 engages with the engaging portion 31 of the hook 3.

  When the lock body is locked, the key portion 9 is operated by the key, and as shown in the front view of the hook in FIG. 14, the operation piece 92 is hooked by rotating the key operation piece 92 by 90 degrees. 3 U-shaped grooves 35 are locked.

To release the lock body from the locked state, by operating the key, the key operating piece 92 is made upright in FIG. 14 to be removed from the U-shaped groove 35, and the temporary locking lever 4 is rotated clockwise. If the engaging portion 41 is removed from the engaging portion 31 of the hook and the cover 1 is rotated in the clockwise direction, the cover 1 and the arm 6 are moved outward while sliding downward by the action of the link 7 and the arm spring 64. It opens to the release state.

  In the conventional lock body, the locking portions are concentrated on the hooks, and the U-shaped groove for locking the key operation piece is formed. Therefore, there is a difficulty in lacking the robustness and reliability as the lock body. In addition, when the lock body is closed, it is inevitable that it is impossible to determine whether or not the lock with the key is performed from the outside.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention attaches a sign and closure to the cover to prevent the temporary locking lever from coming off the hook by operating the key when locked, and the cover rotates outward when released. Therefore, it has a handle function, and when the cover is rotated, the upper end of the cover comes into contact with the upper end shoulder of the arm, and the arm and the lock are configured to rotate at the same time. .

  With this configuration, the present invention is robust in structure, can be reliably closed and opened with a single touch, and it can be seen from the outside whether it is locked, and it can also be used as a handle. A handle and lock body having many advantages of being safe without protrusions could be obtained.

  3 is a front view of the handle and lock body 10 of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a side view of FIG. 3 viewed from the direction F, FIG. 5 is a side view of the lock body released, and FIG. 7 and 7 are side sectional views of FIG.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the base 2 is fixed to the lid body 16, and the hook 3 is fixed to the housing 17. The cover 1 is attached to the base 2 via the link 7 pivotally supported by the base shaft 21 on the link support 23 of the base 2. The arm 6 is rotatably attached to the cover 1 by a cover shaft 81 at the upper end. A link shaft 82 connects the cover 1 and the link 7. Further, the cover shaft 81 is biased toward the base 2 by an arm spring 64 attached to the spring locking portion 22 of the base 2.

  Further, the cover 1 is provided with a key portion 9, a marker / closing body 5 that is moved by operating a key, and a temporary fixing lever 4 that is biased downward by a lever spring 44.

  8 is a side sectional view of the base 2, FIG. 9 is a side sectional view of the temporary fixing lever 4, FIG. 10 is a side sectional view of the arm 6, FIG. 11 is a front view of the sign / closed body 5, and FIG. The cross-sectional view which looked at from the F direction is shown, respectively. In the cross-sectional view of FIG. 6, the lock body 10 is closed, but the key is not locked.

  In the closed state shown in FIG. 6 (the key is not locked as described above), the distal end engaging portion 62 of the arm 6 is engaged with the engaging portion 32 of the hook 3 and is used for locking. The engaging portion 41 of the lever 4 is engaged with the engaging portion 31 of the hook 3. When the key is not locked, the marker / closing body 5 is raised, and the temporary locking lever 4 is pushed upward against the lever spring 44 by pushing the lower end pressing portion 42 with a finger. Thus, the engagement portion 41 can be disengaged from the engagement portion 31 of the hook 3. When the key is inserted into the key hole 91 of the key portion 9 and locked, the marker / closed body 5 is lowered, and the lower pressing portion 51 comes into contact with the upper end portion 43 of the temporary fixing lever 4, and the temporary fixing lever 4 is prevented from moving upward. At the same time, the locking piece of the key part enters the groove provided in the base 2 to prevent the cover 1 from rotating.

  As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the lower part of the sign / closed body 5 is a locked state indicating part 52, the upper part is a locked state indicating part 53, and the lower part is a non-locked state indicating part 54. Each of them is marked with an appropriate color or letter. In the non-locking state shown in FIG. 6, the sign / closed body 5 is raised, so that the lower marking portion 54 can be seen from the window 12 of the cover 1. If the key is locked with the key, the marking / closing body 5 is lowered as described above, so that the upper marking portion 53 can be seen from the window 12.

  In order to release the locked state of the lock body 10, the key is inserted into the key hole 91 of the key portion 9 and operated to release the locking with the base 2 and the sign / close body 5 As shown in FIG. 6, the temporary fastening lever 4 is pushed up to release the engaging portion 41 from the engaging portion 31 of the engaging portion 3 of the hook 3. When the cover 1 is rotated clockwise, the cover 1 is lowered while being opened outward (clockwise) by the action of the link 7 and the arm spring 64. Since the cover shaft 81 is lowered, the axially supported arm 6 is also lowered, and the engaging portion 62 at the tip is also disengaged from the engaging portion 32 of the hook 3.

  When the cover 1 is rotated to some extent, its upper end portion 11 comes into contact with the upper end shoulder portion 61 of the arm 6, and the arm 6 is also rotated clockwise as the cover 1 is rotated, resulting in the state of FIG. 7.

  When the handle / lock body 10 of the present invention is in the state shown in FIG. 7, both the engaging portion 41 of the temporary locking lever 4 and the engaging portion 62 at the tip of the arm 6 are fixed to the housing 17 of the box 15. The cover 1 is disengaged from the engaging portion, and the cover 1 opens outward, and has a handle function. Thus, the cover 16 can be opened with the cover 1 as a handle as shown in FIG. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a protrusion or the like on the lid, so that it is safe, and the hook 3 is not related to the lock with the key, and the structure can be made robust.

  The handle and lock body of the present invention can be opened and closed with one touch, the cover has a handle function, and there is no protrusion to be a handle, so it is suitable for use in a large storage box for delivery loaded on a motorcycle or the like. It is.
