Description

Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention comprises a rotatable handle, the handle being housed in a recessed metal fitting of the component to be opened or locked, in the inactive position the upper edge of the metal fitting. Configured as a plate having a flat surface coplanar with, and having a grip portion at one end region, the end region of the plate opposite the grip portion being at the ends of these end regions due to pressure from above. A lock device for a removable floor plate of an automobile, which is capable of turning downward around a rotating shaft extending therebetween in the recessed metal member against the force of a spring and grasping the raised grip portion at that time. .

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention An object (object) of the present invention is to make the above lock device a smooth and flat cargo loading floor structure, and to store an operating mechanism such as a rotatable handle in a space as small as possible. Is to be able to do so.

According to the present invention, the rotating shaft rotatably supports a lever having a single arm, and the lever is rotatably installed at the other end in a concave metal fitting. It is pivotally attached by a hook-shaped end to a locking hook penetrating the concave metal fitting downwards, the plate first comes into contact with the lever when the plate makes a rotational movement, and the locking hook is pivotally attached when the plate makes a further rotational movement. It is solved by tilting around the set second rotation axis and unlocking.

According to an embodiment of the invention, a lock with a lock cylinder can provide additional safety.

In this case, it is preferable for the plate to cover the upper side of the added lock cylinder in the inactive position, in order to avoid soiling of the lock by the load.

However, in such a case, as another embodiment, it is also preferable to provide the locking hook with a cover that rotates together to cover the through hole of the box-shaped metal fitting. Then, for example, a wire cannot be inserted into the through hole to reach the locking device of the safety lock to open the floor flap without permission.

Embodiments The locking device of the present invention includes, for example, a box-shaped metal fitting 2 fitted on a removable floor plate (not shown) of a station wagon,
It comprises a handle in the form of a plate 1 having a flat surface which is provided flush with the upper edge 5 of the fitting 2. The plate 1 is provided with a through hole 3 for gripping, and at the position shown in FIG. 1, the protrusion 4 rising from the bottom of the metal fitting 2 is just fitted and flush with the through hole 3.
Form a flat cargo-carrying floor with no bumps and dips.
The plate 1 is provided with a corrugated groove 6 in the end region on the side opposite to the grip through hole 3, and the corrugated groove 6 prevents the thumb of the user from sliding during use as described below. .

In order to release this locking device, first, the force of the thumb is applied to the corrugated groove 6 of the plate 1 and it is lifted up against the force of the spring (not shown) until the finger enters the grip through hole 3 from below (Fig. 2). .

During this course of movement, the plate 1 rotates about a first axis of rotation 7 formed by the lower protruding piece of the plate 1 and an axis passing through one end of the single arm lever 8. The other end of the lever 8 is articulated to a locking hook 9 that penetrates the metal fitting 2 downward. Hook 9 fixed to metal fitting 2
The support base of is not shown because it does not complicate the drawing.

The rotating shaft 10 of the locking hook 9 is arranged so that when the plate 1 is sufficiently raised and the lever 8 comes into contact with the lower side of the plate 1,
At the same time, it serves as the second axis of rotation of the plate 1, and at the same time the plate 1 strikes the locking hook 9 and / or its support, not shown.

When the plate 1 rotates further after the first movement process,
In any case, the locking hook 9 is driven and disengaged from the mating member 11 attached to the vehicle body that has been engaged until then.

The above locking device needs to be supplemented by a safety lock with a lock cylinder to prevent theft. For example, in order to prevent the wire from passing through the through hole of the locking hook 9 at the bottom of the box-shaped metal fitting 2, the locking hook 9 is provided with a cover 12 that rotates with the lock 9 below the bottom of the metal fitting 2. ing.
