- the portion above the axis 01 is a region where the swing arm 71 escapes when shifting from the restricted state by the lock mechanism to the unrestricted state. Therefore, the area above the axis 01 is defined as the escape area and the area below is defined as the passing area.
- the swing arm 71 is symmetrical in the escape area and the passage area, there are many areas located on the escape area side of the claw portion 23d. In this case, there are the following problems. That is, since the position of the charging port 4 is provided at a relatively low position of the vehicle, it is assumed that when another vehicle travels nearby, sherbet-like snow, muddy water, etc. is wound up and scattered into the charging port 4. Is done. Further, when charging is performed in a cryogenic environment, it is assumed that the scattered sherbet-like snow and muddy water are frozen, and a slab-like obstacle is formed using the arm member 71d of the swing arm 71 as a roof.
- the arm member 71d is largely scraped from the symmetrical virtual line to the vicinity of the claw portion 23d.

- the shape is symmetrical with the axis line 01 as the reference line. That is, when the swing arm 71 is rotated by the operation of the lock actuator 73, assuming that the swing arm 71 does not sufficiently rotate due to a failure or the like, the length of the outermost diameter portion 71f is secured more reliably. This is because the swing arm 71 can be positioned in the separation direction of 23d.

- the outermost diameter portion 71f of the swing arm 71 is exposed. If the gap between the cover member 9 and the outermost diameter portion 71f is large, it is possible to forcibly open the swing arm 71 by inserting a finger or the like into the gap. Therefore, the gap between the swing arm 71 and the cover member 9 is set narrow so as not to contact.
- the rotation direction length of the outermost diameter part 71f is set longer than the opening width (length in the rotation direction) of the opening 91.
- the distance between the inner peripheral surface of the cover member 9 and the locus of the outermost diameter portion 71 f when the swing arm 71 rotates is set to increase as the distance from the opening 91 increases. ing. That is, when the charging connector 2 is connected to the charging port 4 with dust or the like (gum, mud, lump of dust, etc.) attached to the claw portion 23d, the swing arm 71 rotates to It will work while scraping (sweeping) garbage.

- a predetermined gap a1 is provided between the upper surface of the swing arm 71 and the support extending portion 74b, and a predetermined gap b1 is also provided between the lower surface of the swing arm 71 and the claw portion 23d. Therefore, since the swing arm 71 does not come into contact with the support extending portion 74b and the claw portion 23d when the swing arm 71 rotates, the swing arm 71 can be operated smoothly.
- FIG. 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the positional relationship between the engaging member and the swing arm when the engaging member of Example 1 is forcibly operated in the separating direction.
- the support extending portion 74b is provided, further deformation is suppressed by contact with the support extending portion 74b.
- even the resin swing arm 71 can ensure a sufficient strength against the compressive force. That is, the swing axis of the swing arm 71 has a rotation axis that is different from the insertion / removal direction of the charging connector 2 and that is different from the rotation axis direction of the engagement member 23.
- the rotation axis direction of the swing arm 71 and the rotation axis direction of the engaging member 23 are not in a parallel relationship, and the swing arm 71 is interposed and limited in the separating direction of the claw portion 23d, and The support extending portion 74b is provided. Therefore, even if an unreasonable force is input from the claw portion 23d, the swing arm 71 does not act in the turning direction, so that it is not necessary to make the swing arm 71 robust in the turning direction. Sufficient restricted state can be maintained without having to make the structure near the shaft robust.
- Example 1 has the following effects. (1) It has a convex portion 41a (engaged portion) that engages with the claw portion 23d (engagement portion) of the charging connector 2 by a user's operation, and power is supplied from an external power source in the engaged state.
- the charging port 4 the claw portion 23d, and the convex portion 41a are in the engaged state, the release operation of the claw portion 23d is restricted by the movement of the swing arm 71 (restricting member) in the locking direction.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent the charging connector 2 from being released unexpectedly during charging. Moreover, since the lock mechanism 7 is provided on the vehicle side, it can be used in an existing charging stand or the like. Further, even if a failure or the like occurs in the lock actuator 73 and the release operation cannot be performed at all, the lock screw 72 can be released by rotating it in the release direction of the swing arm 71. Moreover, since the other person who cannot access a vehicle interior cannot operate arbitrarily, it can avoid releasing the connector 2 for charging unexpectedly.
- the swing arm 71 has a through hole 711 that penetrates toward the lock actuator 73. Therefore, when the swing arm 71 becomes difficult to operate due to freezing or the like and the frozen state is improved by adding hot water, the through hole 711 functions as a flow passage through which the hot water flows, thereby quickly improving the frozen state. be able to.
- FIG. 11 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating the positional relationship between the engaging member and the swing arm according to the second embodiment.
- the rotation axis of the swing arm 71 is provided on the plane orthogonal to the insertion / removal direction of the engagement member 23.
- it has the predetermined angle (alpha) with respect to the direction which cross
- the predetermined angle ⁇ is set in a direction that falls toward the claw 23d.
- the support extending portion 74b is formed has been described. However, when the strength is ensured, the support extending portion 74b may not be provided.
- FIG. 12 is a bottom view illustrating the configuration of the swing arm of the lock mechanism according to the third embodiment.
- the first embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the shape is asymmetrical on the axis 01, but the third embodiment is different in that the shape is symmetric.
- the claw portion 23d is formed at an angle at which the shape of the end portion on the top view side and the shape of the end portion 71g on the top view side of the swing arm 71 coincide.
- FIG. 13 is a top view illustrating the configuration of the lock mechanism of the fourth embodiment
- FIG. 14 is a cross-sectional view between the gear shafts of the lock mechanism of the fourth embodiment.
- the lock mechanism 7 according to the first embodiment rotates the swing arm 71
- the lock mechanism 8 according to the fourth embodiment differs in that the rotary plate 81 is rotated.
- the lock mechanism 8 includes a lock actuator 83, and includes a plurality of gear sets housed in a housing 84 of the lock actuator 83 and a rotary plate 81.
- the housing 84 includes a lower housing part 84b whose upper surface is open, an upper housing part 84a that covers the lower housing part 84b from the upper surface, and a bracket part that is formed below the rotary plate 81 and to which the charging port 4 and the like are attached. 84d and a motor housing portion 84c for housing the motor 831.
- the bracket portion 84d is provided with a support member 85d for fixing and supporting on the vehicle body side, and harness ports 85a, 85b, and 85c for connecting the harness to the motor 831 and a sensor (not shown).
- the pinion 832 connected to the motor 831 always meshes with the first gear 833 that rotates integrally with the first rotating shaft 834.
- a first rotation shaft gear 834a is formed on the outer periphery of the first rotation shaft 834, and always meshes with a second gear 835a that rotates integrally with the second rotation shaft 835.
- the second gear 835a always meshes with the third gear 836a that rotates integrally with the third rotating shaft 836.
- the first rotating shaft 834, the second rotating shaft 835, and the third rotating shaft 836 are rotatably supported by bearings 834b, 835b, and 836b with respect to the upper housing portion 84a and the lower housing portion 84b, respectively.
- the third rotating shaft 836 has screw holes 836c formed in the shaft center portions at both ends of the shaft, and emergency screws 82 are attached from the upper housing portion 84a side, and the rotary plate 81 is screwed from the lower housing portion 84b side. It is fixed with screws.
- the emergency screw 82 can be turned with a Phillips screwdriver, or a hexagonal bolt formed on the outer periphery thereof can be turned with a wrench.
- the tightening direction of the emergency screw 82 is set to be the same as the direction in which the rotary plate 81 rotates in the unlocking direction. That is, even if a failure or the like occurs in the lock actuator 83 and the release operation cannot be performed at all, the rotary plate 81 can be rotated in the release direction by tightening the emergency screw 82. It is to do.
- This emergency screw 82 is provided so as to be exposed in the hood.
- the hood hood release lever in the passenger compartment is usually operated. If the release lever can be operated, the position can be easily accessed. In other words, the position cannot be accessed even if the charging lid 32 is opened. Therefore, it is devised so that others who cannot access the passenger compartment cannot operate it without permission. Moreover, since it can be easily operated by a plus driver or the like equipped on the in-vehicle tool or the like, it can be released by the operator.
- FIG. 15 is a top view showing the configuration of the rotary plate of the fourth embodiment.
- the rotary plate 81 is a substantially disk-shaped member having a two-sided width through-hole 811 through which the third rotating shaft 836 passes at the center, and a notch 812 partially cut out on the circumference; A plate portion 813 that is not cut away.
- the positional relationship between the rotary plate 81 and the claw portion 23d shown in FIG. 15 represents the positional relationship when the charging connector 2 is inserted into the charging port 4 when the lock mechanism 8 is in an unrestricted state.
- the positional relationship will be described assuming that the central position of the claw portion 23d is 0 ° and the clockwise direction is the positive direction.
- the notch 812 is formed in a range from ⁇ 65 ° to + 30 ° in the circumferential direction, that is, a size of 95 °. Since the tip of the claw portion 23d occupies a size of about 40 ° at the maximum in the circumferential direction, the cutout portion 812 can be said to be twice or more the rotation direction length of the claw portion 23d. Thus, when a release command is output to the lock actuator 83, the release state can be maintained even when the return position is returned too much due to a failure or the like.
- the reason why the circumferential length of the notch portion 812 is sufficiently longer than the circumferential length of the claw portion 23d is as follows. That is, if dust or the like adheres to the cutout portion 812, if the dust is sticky, the cutout portion 812 may be blocked with dust. At this time, if the circumferential length of the notch 812 is short, dust adheres more firmly to both ends of the notch 812. On the other hand, by increasing the circumferential length of the notch 812, it is possible to avoid a situation where dust adheres to both ends, and even if dust adheres only to one end. Since the other side of the dust has an open end, the dust can easily fall downward, and the dust can be appropriately removed.
- the plate portion 813 is formed in a range from + 30 ° to + 295 °, that is, a size of 265 °.
- the radial end of the plate portion 813 has a smooth end shape over the entire circumference.
- a notch end 813a that is the circumferential direction start end of the plate portion 813 and also the circumferential direction end portion of the notch portion 812 is formed to be inclined with respect to the radial direction. As shown in the partially enlarged view of FIG. 15, the notch end portion 813a is inclined to the side where the region of the notch portion 812 becomes narrower.
- the rotary plate 81 rotates and starts to be positioned on the side of the claw portion 23d in the separation direction, the rotary plate 81 is inclined so as to be substantially parallel to the end portion of the claw portion 23d in the rotation direction. Thereby, many areas can be overlapped with claw part 23d more quickly in top view, and a reliable locked state can be realized early.
- FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view obtained by linearly extending a cross-sectional shape along a cross-sectional line drawn in the circumferential direction of the rotary plate of FIG.
- the first rotary plate surface 813b shown in the range of 30 ° to 165 ° is formed with a tapered surface that approaches the claw portion 23d in the rotation direction.
- the thickness of the claw portion 23d varies, and even if the claw portion 23d is a slightly thicker type, the rotary plate 81 can be interposed in the separation direction of the claw portion 23d. Even if the claw portion 23d is bitten, if the rotary plate 81 is made of resin, the biting can be released relatively easily because the frictional resistance is small and it is easily deformed.
- the second rotary plate surface 814b following the first rotary plate surface 813b is formed as a horizontal plane. That is, if the tapered surface is continuously formed along the rotation direction, the entire thickness of the rotary plate 81 is increased, and the vehicle mountability is deteriorated. Further, if a failure or the like occurs in the motor 831 and the motor 831 is over-rotated, the motor 831 may be excessively bitten into the claw portion 23d, and the release operation may be hindered. Therefore, by forming a horizontal plane, compaction and excessive biting during failure are avoided.
- the second rotary plate surface 814b is formed over a range of 130 ° and is larger than the area occupied by the claw portion 23. Therefore, even if a failure or the like occurs in the motor 831 and the motor 831 rotates excessively, the state where the claw portion 23d is limited can be maintained.
- FIG. 17 is a schematic sectional view showing the positional relationship between the engaging member and the rotary plate of Example 4.
- a predetermined gap d1 is provided between the lower surface of the rotary plate 81 and the claw portion 23d.
- the gap d1 is slightly different depending on the rotation stop position of the rotary plate 81, but is set to a value having a predetermined gap in relation to the second rotary plate surface 814b. Therefore, when the rotary plate 81 rotates, it does not come into contact with the claw portion 23d, so that the rotary plate 81 can be operated smoothly.
- the release button 23a is pushed in the state where the lock mechanism 8 is activated and the movement of the engaging member 23 in the separation direction is restricted, the upper surface of the claw portion 23d comes into contact with the lower surface of the rotary plate 81.
- the rotary plate 81 is pushed up.
- the third rotating shaft 836 of the lock actuator 83 is firmly designed by the bearing 836b, the claw portion 23d can be pressed down.
- the rotation axis of the rotary plate 81 is a direction different from the insertion / removal direction of the charging connector 2 and is different from the rotation axis (first rotation axis) direction of the engagement member 23 ( Second rotation axis). Furthermore, in other words, the rotational axis direction of the rotary plate 81 and the rotational axis direction of the engaging member 23 are not in a parallel relationship, and the rotary plate 81 is interposed and limited in the separating direction of the claw portion 23d, and The lower housing portion 84b is provided.
- the fourth embodiment has the following effects.
- (4) It has a convex portion 41a (engaged portion) that engages with the claw portion 23d (engagement portion) of the charging connector 2 by a user's operation, and power is supplied from an external power source in the engaged state.
- the release operation of the claw portion 23d is restricted by the movement of the rotary plate 81 (restricting member) in the locking direction.
- a lock mechanism that achieves a locked state that restricts the release of the state and an unlocked state that allows a release operation by moving the rotary plate 81 in the unlocking direction opposite to the locking direction.
- the emergency screw 82 is fixed to the lock actuator 83 (rotation actuator) by an emergency screw 82 (screw), and the emergency screw 82 is provided in the hood of the vehicle. Therefore, even when a failure or the like occurs in the lock actuator 83 and the release operation cannot be performed at all, the emergency screw 82 can be released by rotating it in the release direction of the rotary plate 81. Moreover, since the other person who cannot access a vehicle interior cannot operate arbitrarily, it can avoid releasing the connector 2 for charging unexpectedly.
- the turning direction in which the rotary plate 81 is turned from the locked state to the unlocked state is the same as the direction in which the emergency screw 82 is tightened. Therefore, when forcibly releasing by a failure or the like, it can be released by tightening the emergency screw 82. In other words, in the direction opposite to the tightening direction, if the emergency screw 82 is loosened, there is a possibility that it can no longer be rotated and cannot be released, and this can be avoided.
- the rotary plate 81 has a through hole 811 that penetrates toward the lock actuator 83. Therefore, when the operation of the rotary plate 81 becomes difficult due to freezing or the like, and the frozen state is improved by adding hot water, the through hole 811 functions as a flow passage through which the hot water flows, thereby quickly improving the frozen state. be able to.
- the present invention has been described based on each embodiment, but other configurations may be used.
- the charging port is provided in front of the vehicle.
- the charging port may be provided in the rear of the vehicle or in the side of the vehicle.
- the electric vehicle has been described in the embodiment, a plug-in hybrid vehicle or the like may be used.

図1は実施例1の充電ポートロック装置を備えた車両の充電時の様子を表す概略図である。車両3の前方であって、ボンネットフード31より更に前方側には、車両3のフロアに搭載された車載バッテリ6とケーブル43により電気的に接続された充電ポート4が設けられている。この充電ポート4は、タイヤホイルアーチ33の上端と略同じ高さであってサイドミラー34よりも低い位置に設けられ、非充電時は充電リッド32により閉塞されている。充電スタンド1には、電力供給用の充電用コネクタ2が設けられており、充電時には、充電リッド32を開き、充電用コネクタ2を充電ポート4に差し込んで接続することで、充電を実施する。尚、実施例1の車両では、急速充電器に接続する場合の急速充電ポートと、家庭用電気等で充電する場合の通常充電ポートとの両方を備えており、実施例1の場合は通常充電ポートを例に説明する。急速充電ポートを使用する場合、比較的短時間の接続であり、長時間放置するような場面は少ないからである。尚、急速充電ポート側にロック機構を備えてもよいことは言うまでもない。
充電ポート4の上方には、係合部材23の回動を制限するロック機構7が設けられている。ロック機構7は、爪部23dが凸部41aから離間する方向に位置することで離間を制限する状態を達成し、離間する方向に位置しないことで離間を制限しない状態を達成するスイングアーム71と、このスイングアーム71を駆動するロックアクチュエータ73と、ロックアクチュエータ73及び充電ポート4の被挿入部材41を固定支持するブラケット74とを有する。
(1)使用者の操作により充電用コネクタ2の爪部23d(係合部)と係合する凸部41a(被係合部)を有し、係合状態において外部電源からの電力が供給される充電ポート4と、爪部23dと凸部41aとが係合状態にある時に、スイングアーム71(制限部材)のロック方向への移動により爪部23dの解除操作を規制することで、係合状態の解除を制限するロック状態と、スイングアーム71のロック方向とは反対側のアンロック方向への移動により解除操作を許容するアンロック状態とを達成するロック機構7と、を備え、スイングアーム71は、ロック機構7のロックアクチュエータ73(回動アクチュエータ)に固定ネジ72(ネジ)により固定されると共に、固定ネジ72は車両のボンネットフード内に設けられている。
よって、充電中に不意に充電用コネクタ2が解除されることを回避することができる。また、車両側にロック機構7を備えたことで、既存の充電スタンド等でも活用できる。また、ロックアクチュエータ73にフェール等が発生し、全く解除動作が出来なくなった場合であっても、この固定ネジ72をスイングアーム71の解除方向に回動させることで解除することができる。また、車室内にアクセスできない他者が勝手に操作することはできないため、不意に充電用コネクタ2が解除されることを回避できる。
よって、フェール等により強制的に解除する際、固定ネジ72を締めこむことで解除することができる。言い換えると、締めこむ方向とは反対方向の場合、固定ネジ72が緩んでしまうと、それ以上回動できずに解除できないおそれがあり、これを回避することができる。
よって、凍結等によってスイングアーム71の作動が困難となり、お湯をかけて凍結状態を改善する場合には、貫通孔711が、お湯が流通する流通路として機能することで、素早く凍結状態を改善することができる。
次に実施例2について説明する。基本的な構成は実施例1と同じであるため、異なる点についてのみ説明する。図11は実施例2の係合部材とスイングアームとの位置関係を表す概略断面図である。実施例1では、スイングアーム71の回動軸は、係合部材23の抜き差し方向の直交面上に設けていた。これに対し、実施例2では、抜き差し方向の直交面と交差する方向、すなわち直行方向に対して所定角度αを有する。所定角度αは、爪部23d側に倒れる方向に設定されている。これにより、爪部23dが無理やり押し上げられたとしても、その力をスイングアーム71の回動軸の軸部で受けることができ、より安定して制限することができる。尚、実施例2においても支持延設部74bを形成した例を示したが、強度が確保されている場合には、特に支持延設部74bを設けなくても構わない。
次に実施例3について説明する。基本的な構成は実施例1と同じであるため、異なる点についてのみ説明する。図12は実施例3のロック機構のスイングアームの構成を表す底面図である。実施例1では、軸線01において非対称となる形状としたのに対し、実施例3では対称な形状とした点が異なる。また、スイングアーム71の回動により制限状態に移行する際、爪部23dの上面視側端部形状とスイングアーム71の上面視側端部71gの形状とが一致する角度に形成している。よって、制限状態に移行する際、上面視においてスイングアーム71と爪部23dとが重なる面積が大きな状態を素早く達成できる。これにより、例えばスイングアーム71を作動中にロックアクチュエータ73等がフェール状態となり、十分に回動できない場合であっても、より確実に制限状態を維持することができる。
次に実施例4について説明する。基本的な構成は実施例1と同じであるため、異なる点についてのみ説明する。図13は実施例4のロック機構の構成を表す上面図、図14は実施例4のロック機構の歯車軸間断面図である。実施例1のロック機構7は、スイングアーム71を回動させたのに対し、実施例4のロック機構8は、ロータリプレート81を回動させる点が異なる。ロック機構8はロックアクチュエータ83を有し、このロックアクチュエータ83のハウジング84内に収装された複数の歯車組と、ロータリプレート81から構成されている。ハウジング84は、上面が開放された下側ハウジング部84bと、この下側ハウジング部84bを上面から覆う上側ハウジング部84aと、ロータリプレート81の下方に形成され、充電ポート4等が取り付けられるブラケット部84dと、モータ831を収装するモータ収装部84cとを有する。また、ブラケット部84dには、車体側に固定支持するための支持部材85dと、モータ831及び図外のセンサ等とハーネスを接続するためのハーネス用ポート85a,85b,85cが設けられている。
(4)使用者の操作により充電用コネクタ2の爪部23d(係合部)と係合する凸部41a(被係合部)を有し、係合状態において外部電源からの電力が供給される充電ポート4と、爪部23dと凸部41aとが係合状態にある時に、ロータリプレート81(制限部材)のロック方向への移動により爪部23dの解除操作を規制することで、係合状態の解除を制限するロック状態と、ロータリプレート81のロック方向とは反対側のアンロック方向への移動により解除操作を許容するアンロック状態とを達成するロック機構8と、を備え、ロック機構8のロックアクチュエータ83(回動アクチュエータ)に緊急用ネジ82(ネジ)により固定されると共に、緊急用ネジ82は車両のボンネットフード内に設けられている。
よって、ロックアクチュエータ83にフェール等が発生し、全く解除動作が出来なくなった場合であっても、この緊急用ネジ82をロータリプレート81の解除方向に回動させることで解除することができる。また、車室内にアクセスできない他者が勝手に操作することはできないため、不意に充電用コネクタ2が解除されることを回避できる。
よって、フェール等により強制的に解除する際、緊急用ネジ82を締めこむことで解除することができる。言い換えると、締めこむ方向とは反対方向の場合、緊急用ネジ82が緩んでしまうと、それ以上回動できずに解除できないおそれがあり、これを回避することができる。
よって、凍結等によってロータリプレート81の作動が困難となり、お湯をかけて凍結状態を改善する場合には、貫通孔811が、お湯が流通する流通路として機能することで、素早く凍結状態を改善することができる。
