Embodiment approach 1

[0039] Such as figure 1 As shown, a rear door 6 serving as a vehicle door and a door holding device (hereinafter also simply referred to as "holding device") 10 according to Embodiment 1 are provided on the rear portion 2 of the vehicle body 1 .

[0040] The rear door 6 is a pop-up door rotatable via a rotary shaft 7 from a fully closed position P1 to a fully open position P2 via an intermediate position (also referred to as a “half-open position”) P3. The luggage area 4 behind the rearmost row of seats 3 can be opened and closed by the rotating operation of the rear door 6 . The rear of the luggage area 4 is defined by a rear door 6 and its sides are defined by left and right pillar garnishes 5 .

[0041] The right end portion and the left end portion of the rear door 6 are respectively connected to the rear portion 2 of the vehicle body 1 by known hydraulic damper struts 8 . Therefore, the user's opening and closing operation of the rear door 6 is assisted by the damper st...

Abstract

The invention provides a vehicle door retaining device capable of retaining a vehicle door at any middle position. The vehicle door retaining device (10) according to the present invention is provided with a rotating drum (20), a lock part (40), a trigger mechanism part (50) for driving the lock part (40), and a torque transmission part (30) for transmitting the torque when the rotating drum (20) rotates to the trigger mechanism part (50) via a torque limiter (35). The movable member (51) of the trigger mechanism part (50) is configured so that when a rear door (6) is closed at an intermediate position, the movable member (51) of the trigger mechanism part (50) is locked by the lock part (40). A torque transmission unit (30) that moves in one direction between the first position and the second position, and that alternately switches the lock unit (40) between the locked state and the unlocked state of the rotating drum (20) every time the movement is repeated, the torque transmission unit (30) being configured such that, in a stopped state in which the movement of the movable member (51) of the trigger mechanism unit (50) is prevented, the transmitted torque is blocked by the torque limiter (35), and the torque is released from the locked state. The linkage between the movable member (51) and the rotating drum (20) is released.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle door holding device for holding a vehicle door. Background technique [0002] In the past, in vehicles such as minivans, there were situations where it was not possible to secure enough space to fully open the rear door behind the vehicle, and it was difficult for the user to reach the rear door at the fully opened position by hand. Therefore, in order to cope with such a situation, a technology is desired that enables the user to hold the rear door at any intermediate position between the fully open position and the fully closed position. [0003] In Patent Document 1 described below, a holding device related to this technique is disclosed. The holding device is roughly equipped with: a rotating drum for winding up a cable; Drum, the other end is locked on the back door; coil spring, the above-mentioned coil spring loads the rotating drum to the cable winding direction; and the rotation control mechanism, th...
