The actuator 110 is to operate the operation rod 111 is moved forward and backward by operating the lock button installed in the armrest of the driver's side front door, and the door lock lever 100 is operated by this operation.

Hereinafter, the operation of the controller 3 of the present invention will be described.

① open the sliding door by operating the inner handle;

When the inner handle 4 is rotated in the opening direction, that is, toward the rear of the vehicle, the first lever 20 is rotated counterclockwise in the same direction as the inner handle 4, and the locking end 21 is used for child protection. Push the arm 92 of the lock lever 90, the arm 92 pushes the second lever 30 and rotates, and when the second lever 30 is rotated counterclockwise, the connecting lever 40 is Pulling the third lever 50, the locking end 51 of the third lever 50 rotates the fourth lever 60 in the same direction at the same time through the arm 101 of the door locking lever 100. Therefore, since the lower end of the fourth lever 60 is pulled toward the front of the vehicle, the link 2 connected to the door locking device 1 is pulled out so that the locked state is released.

② open the sliding door by operating the outer handle;

When the outer handle is operated, the outer handle link 80 is pressed downward so that the ring 81 presses the pin 32 fixed to the left end of the second lever 30 to counterclockwise the second lever 30. To rotate in the direction. Therefore, the connecting lever 40 pulls the third lever 50, and since the following operation is made in the same manner as in ①, the door can be opened and boarded.

③ When sliding door is closed by operating the inner handle while the hold open lock device is in operation;

In order to close the sliding door by manipulating the inner handle 4, the inner handle 4 should be operated in the opposite direction as in the case of ①. That is, the inner handle 4 is pulled while rotating toward the front of the vehicle. When the inner handle 4 is operated in this way, the first lever 20 rotates in the same direction as the inner handle 4 once in the clockwise direction. The first link 210 is rotated in the clockwise direction by pressing the fifth lever 70, so that the steel ball holder 73 is pulled away from the cable holder 15 so that the cable 7 is pulled, so that the open open lock device (6) is released and the door can be closed.

④ The sliding door is closed by operating the outer handle while the hold open lock device is in operation;

The outer handle is designed to perform the same operation to pull the handle outwards when opening or closing the sliding door. Accordingly, as described above, the outer handle link 80 may release the second lever 30 which acts to release the door locking device 1 and the fifth lever 70 which acts to release the hold open lock device 6. It is supposed to work at the same time. That is, in this case, when the outer handle link 80 is pressed down, the second link 211 connected to the bracket 82 welded thereto is simultaneously lowered and the fifth lever 70 is rotated in the same direction as in the case of ③. Clockwise rotation), the hold open lock device 6 is released by the same operation and the door can be closed.

⑤ When operating the child protection lock lever;

In order to operate the child protection lock lever 90 in the normal state such as the state shown in Figure 2 it is necessary to press down the operation step 91 exposed to the front side of the door. As described above, when the operating end 91 is pressed downward, the arm 92 is moved upwards of the slit 31 of the second lever 30. In this state, the first lever is operated even when the inner handle 4 is opened in the opening direction. Since the locking end 21 of the 20 does not push the arm 92 and the second lever 30 cannot be rotated, since the operation of the levers is not performed thereafter, the door locking device 1 cannot be released.

In this state, however, the outer handle link 80 is directly connected to the left end of the second lever 30 so that the outer handle link can rotate the second lever 30 regardless of whether the first lever 20 is idle. By operating the door lock device (1) can be released.

Therefore, when the child is in the car and the adult sees the ball outside the car, the child does not come out of the car while the adult sees the ball, and the adult can ride the outside handle after riding the ball.

⑥ When the door lock lever is operated by operating the knob installed on the top of the door (below the door glass);

When the knob 5 is pressed, the third link 212 is pushed downward while the door lock lever 100 rotates clockwise around the fixed point, so that the arm 101 connected to the upper left of the door lock lever 100 is The slit 61 of the fourth lever 60 is moved upward. Therefore, even if the operating force of the inner handle or the outer handle is transmitted to the third lever 50 through the connecting lever 40, the locking end 51 of the third lever 50 does not push the arm 101. Therefore, since the fourth lever 60 is not operated, the door lock device 1 is not released because the link 2 cannot be pulled. That is, the door is not opened by turning the third lever 50 so that the operating force of the handle is not transmitted. In this case, the door cannot be opened at both indoor and outdoor sides.

⑦ When the door lock lever is operated by the actuator;

When the driver presses the lock button, the operation rod 111 of the actuator 110 retreats to produce the same result as pressing the third link 212 by pressing the knob 5 in the case of ⑥. That is, when the operation rod 111 is retracted, the door lock lever 100 is rotated in the clockwise direction so that the arm 101 moves to the upper portion of the slit 61, even if the operating force of the inner and outer handles is transmitted to the third lever 50. Since this turns out, the door lock device 1 cannot be released and the door cannot be opened.

In the case of ⑥ and ⑦, if the knob 5 is lifted again or the driver re-operates the lock button to return the door lock lever 100 to its original position, the third lever 50 and the fourth lever are returned by the arm 101 again. Since 60 is interlocked, the door can be opened.

In all of the above cases except for the case of ③ and ④, the levers operated to release the door locking device 1 include the coil spring 302 mounted between the base plate 10 and the second lever 30, and It is returned to its original position by the spring 201 pulling the upper end of the second lever 30 and the spring 202 pulling the upper end of the fourth lever 60, and actuated to release the hold open lock device 6. The fifth lever 70 is returned to its original position by a spring 203 connected between the cable holder 15 and the steel ball holder 73.

As described above, according to the present invention, the function of releasing the door lock device and opening the door by operating the inner handle and the outer handle in a normal state, and the inner handle when the door is fully opened and the hold open lock device is locked. And a function of releasing the hold open lock device and closing the door by operating the outer handle, and a function of opening the door using only the outer handle and not opening the door when the child protection lock lever is operated. Operate the door lock lever through the link by operating the knob on the top of the door (below the door glass), or operate the door lock lever by an electrically operated actuator to make the door inoperable with both the inner handle and the outer handle. All functions required in the sliding door can be performed smoothly, such as a function that prevents the opening.
