When the cable core wire is pulled by the unlocking handle, the cable sleeve will move together with the cable core wire. During the movement of the cable sleeve together with the cable core wire, the cable sleeve will be separated from the abutment of the lock body. Since the tension generated by the cable core wire acts on the bolt mechanism of the lock body, the lock body generates a reaction force. Since the cable sleeve is separated from the abutment of the lock body, the reaction force generated by the lock body will not be transmitted to the cable sleeve, so that the force applied to the door lock handle cannot effectively drive the bolt mechanism to move, and finally the lock body cannot be unlocked, that is, the vehicle door cannot be opened by moving the door lock handle at this time. The owner can connect or separate the limiting piece from the limiting part according to the specific needs, thereby improving the anti-theft performance of the vehicle door lock and protecting the property and personal safety in the vehicle.

[0048] A door lock is arranged on a door of a vehicle, and the door lock has a lock body, a cable assembly, a door lock handle, etc. The door lock handle is arranged in the vehicle, and a user in the vehicle pulls the door lock handle to unlock the lock body through the cable assembly, thereby opening the door.

[0049] In the existing door lock, with reference to Figure 3As shown, the cable assembly 200 includes a cable sleeve 210 and a cable core 220, the cable core 220 is sleeved in the cable sleeve 210 and can slide relatively, both ends of the cable sleeve 210 are fixed on the lock body 10 and the vehicle body structure respectively, to provide stable support for the whole vehicle door lock system, one end of the cable core 220 is connected with the bolt mechanism 11 of the lock body 10, the other end of the cable core 220 is connected with the door lock handle 20, when the cable core 220 is pulled through the door lock handle 20, the cable core 220 slides in the cable sleeve 210, the pulling force generated by the cable core 220 acts on the bolt mechanism 11 of the lock body 10, at this time the lock body 10 generates a reaction force, the reaction force generated by the lock body 10 is transmitted to the vehicle body structure through the fixed cable sleeve 210, so that the force applied on the door lock handle 20 can effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, and finally realize the unlocking of the lock body 10.

[0050] The existing vehicle door lock has poor anti-theft performance, when the vehicle window on the vehicle door is damaged, a person outside the vehicle directly stretches his hand into the vehicle to pull the door lock handle to open the vehicle door, so that the protection performance of the property and personal safety in the vehicle is poor.

[0051] In order to solve the technical problem that the existing vehicle door lock has poor anti-theft performance, the application provides a cable mechanism, a vehicle door lock and a vehicle, the cable mechanism includes a mounting seat, a cable assembly, an unlocking handle and a limiting piece, the mounting seat is provided with a limiting part; the cable assembly includes a cable sleeve and a cable core, the cable core is sleeved in the cable sleeve, one end of the cable core is used for being connected with a bolt mechanism of a lock body, and one end of the cable sleeve close to the lock body is used for abutting against the lock body; the unlocking handle is arranged on the mounting seat, the unlocking handle is used for being connected with the other end of the cable core, so as to pull the bolt mechanism through the cable core; the limiting piece is arranged on the cable sleeve, the limiting piece is detachably connected with the limiting part, and the limiting piece is configured to, when being connected with the limiting part, limit the cable sleeve, so as to make the cable sleeve keep abutting against the lock body when the cable core is pulled by the unlocking handle, to unlock the lock body; when being separated from the limiting part, make the cable sleeve disengage from the limiting, so as to make the cable sleeve move with the cable core when the cable core is pulled by the unlocking handle, to make the cable sleeve disengage from the abutment with the lock body.

[0052] In the use of the cable mechanism of the present application, when the user needs to open the lock body by moving the unlocking handle, the user connects the limiting member with the limiting portion in advance, thereby limiting the cable sleeve, because the cable sleeve is limited, it is ensured that the cable sleeve always abuts against the lock body, so that when the cable core wire is pulled by the unlocking handle, the cable core wire slides in the cable sleeve, the cable sleeve remains stationary, and the tension generated by the cable core wire acts on the bolt mechanism of the lock body, at this time the lock body generates a reaction force, the reaction force generated by the lock body is transmitted to the mounting seat through the limited cable sleeve, so that the force applied to the door lock handle can effectively drive the bolt mechanism to move, and finally the lock body is unlocked.

[0053] When the user does not want to open the lock body by moving the unlocking handle, the user separates the limiting member from the limiting portion in advance, so that the cable sleeve is released from the limitation, so that when the cable core wire is pulled by the unlocking handle, the cable sleeve will move together with the cable core wire, and in the process of moving together with the cable core wire, the cable sleeve will be separated from the abutment with the lock body, because the tension generated by the cable core wire acts on the bolt mechanism of the lock body, at this time the lock body generates a reaction force, and because the cable sleeve is separated from the abutment with the lock body, the reaction force generated by the lock body will not be transmitted to the cable sleeve, so that the force applied to the door lock handle cannot effectively drive the bolt mechanism to move, and finally the lock body cannot be unlocked.

[0054] Therefore, when the cable mechanism of the present application is applied to the vehicle door lock, when the vehicle owner is in the vehicle or needs to open the lock body by moving the unlocking handle, the vehicle owner can connect the limiting member with the limiting portion in advance to limit the cable sleeve, so that the vehicle owner can open the lock body by moving the unlocking handle, and then open the vehicle door; when the vehicle owner is not in the vehicle or does not want to open the lock body by moving the unlocking handle, i.e. when the vehicle owner wants to open the anti-theft mode, the vehicle owner separates the limiting member from the limiting portion in advance, so that the cable sleeve is released from the limitation, so that the force applied to the door lock handle cannot effectively drive the bolt mechanism to move, and finally the lock body cannot be unlocked, i.e. at this time the vehicle door cannot be opened by moving the door lock handle, and the vehicle owner can connect or separate the limiting member from the limiting portion according to specific needs, thereby improving the anti-theft performance of the vehicle door lock and protecting the property and personal safety in the vehicle.

[0055] The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes can not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , an embodiment of the present application provides a cable mechanism, which comprises a mounting seat 100, a cable assembly 200, an unlocking handle 300 and a limiting piece 400.

[0058] The mounting seat 100 is provided with a limiting part.

[0059] The cable assembly 200 comprises a cable sleeve 210 and a cable core wire 220, the cable core wire 220 is arranged in the cable sleeve 210, one end of the cable core wire 220 is used for being connected with a bolt mechanism 11 of a lock body 10, and the cable sleeve 210 close to the lock body 10 is used for abutting against the lock body 10.

[0060] The unlocking handle 300 is arranged on the mounting seat 100, and the unlocking handle 300 is used for being connected with the other end of the cable core wire 220, so as to pull the bolt mechanism 11 through the cable core wire 220.

[0061] The limiting piece 400 is arranged on the cable sleeve 210, and the limiting piece 400 is detachably connected with the limiting portion. When the limiting piece 400 is connected with the limiting portion, the limiting piece 400 is configured to limit the cable sleeve 210, so that the cable sleeve 210 keeps abutting against the lock body 10 when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, thereby unlocking the lock body 10; and when the limiting piece 400 is separated from the limiting portion, the cable sleeve 210 is released from the limitation, so that the cable sleeve 210 moves along with the cable core wire 220 when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, thereby making the cable sleeve 210 abut against the lock body 10.

[0062] In the cable mechanism of the present application, the limiting portion is arranged on the mounting seat 100, and the limiting piece 400 on the cable sleeve 210 is detachably connected with the limiting portion. When the limiting piece 400 is connected with the limiting portion, the limiting piece 400 limits the cable sleeve 210, so that the cable sleeve 210 keeps abutting against the lock body 10.

[0063] When the limiting piece 400 is separated from the limiting portion, the cable sleeve 210 is released from the limitation, so that the cable sleeve 210 moves along with the cable core wire 220 when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, thereby making the cable sleeve 210 abut against the lock body 10.

[0064] The detachable connection between the limiting portion and the limiting piece 400 can be magnetic attraction connection, clamping connection, adhesive connection, bolt connection, etc.

[0065] When the user needs to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, the user connects the limiting piece 400 with the limiting portion in advance, thereby limiting the cable sleeve 210. Since the cable sleeve 210 is limited, the cable sleeve 210 keeps abutting against the lock body 10, so that the cable core wire 220 slides in the cable sleeve 210 when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, and the cable sleeve 210 keeps still. The pulling force generated by the cable core wire 220 acts on the bolt mechanism 11 of the lock body 10, and the lock body 10 generates a reaction force. The reaction force generated by the lock body 10 is transmitted to the mounting seat 100 through the limited cable sleeve 210, thereby enabling the force applied on the door lock handle 20 to effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, and finally unlocking the lock body 10.

[0066] When the user does not want to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, the user separates the limiting member 400 from the limiting portion in advance, so that the cable sleeve 210 is separated from the limiting portion, and when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, the cable sleeve 210 will move together with the cable core wire 220. During the movement of the cable sleeve 210 together with the cable core wire 220, the cable sleeve 210 will be separated from the abutment with the lock body 10. Because the pulling force generated by the cable core wire 220 acts on the bolt mechanism 11 of the lock body 10, the lock body 10 generates a reaction force. Because the cable sleeve 210 is separated from the abutment with the lock body 10, the reaction force generated by the lock body 10 cannot be transmitted to the cable sleeve 210, so that the force applied to the door lock handle 20 cannot effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, and finally the lock body 10 cannot be unlocked.

[0067] Therefore, when the cable mechanism of the present application is applied to the vehicle door lock, when the vehicle owner is in the vehicle or the vehicle owner needs to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, the vehicle owner can connect the limiting member 400 with the limiting portion in advance to limit the cable sleeve 210, so that the vehicle owner can open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, and then open the vehicle door. When the vehicle owner is not in the vehicle or the vehicle owner does not want to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, that is, when the vehicle owner wants to open the anti-theft mode, the vehicle owner separates the limiting member 400 from the limiting portion in advance, so that the force applied to the door lock handle 20 cannot effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, and finally the lock body 10 cannot be unlocked, that is, the vehicle door cannot be opened by moving the door lock handle 20 at this time. The vehicle owner can connect or separate the limiting member 400 from the limiting portion according to the specific needs, so as to improve the anti-theft performance of the vehicle door lock and protect the property and personal safety in the vehicle.

[0068] It should be noted that the cable mechanism of the present application can be applied not only to the vehicle door lock of the vehicle door, but also to the cabin cover unlocking handle 300, the fuel tank cover unlocking handle 300, the trunk cover / back door unlocking handle 300, the rear seat folding unlocking handle 300, and can also be applied to other lock structures.

[0069] In other embodiments, with reference to Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the mounting base 100 is provided with at least one sliding groove 500, and the limiting piece 400 includes at least one limiting sliding block 410, each of which is arranged on the cable sleeve 210 and is in one-to-one sliding connection in the sliding groove 500. The sliding groove 500 includes an abutting section 510, a communication section 520 and a sliding section 530. The abutting section 510 is in communication with the sliding section 530 through the communication section 520. The extension direction of the sliding section 530 is the same as that of the cable core wire 220, and the extension direction of the abutting section 510 intersects with that of the cable core wire 220, so that the abutting section 510 is dislocated with the sliding section 530.

[0070] The abutting section 510 forms a limiting part. When at least part of the limiting sliding block 410 is located in the abutting section 510 and the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, the side wall in the extension direction of the abutting section 510 abuts against the limiting sliding block 410, so as to limit the movement of the cable sleeve 210 along the extension direction of the cable core wire 220 through the limiting sliding block 410.

[0071] The communication section 520 is configured to pass the limiting sliding block 410 from the communication section 520 to the sliding section 530 when the limiting sliding block 410 is located in the communication section 520 and the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, so as to move the cable sleeve 210 along with the cable core wire 220.

[0072] In the embodiment, the abutting section 510 forms a limiting part. When the user needs to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, the user can locate at least part of the limiting sliding block 410 in the abutting section 510. When the user moves the unlocking handle 300, the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, and the side wall in the extension direction of the abutting section 510 will abut against the limiting sliding block 410, that is, the abutting section 510 abuts against the limiting sliding block 410, so as to limit the movement of the limiting sliding block 410 along the extension direction of the cable core wire 220, and further limit the movement of the cable sleeve 210 along the extension direction of the cable core wire 220, that is, the limiting piece 400 is connected with the limiting part, the limiting of the cable sleeve 210 is realized, and the opening of the lock body 10 is realized by moving the unlocking handle 300.

[0073] When the user does not want to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, the user can move the limiting slider 410 into the communication section 520, that is, the limiting slider 410 is not in the abutting section 510, so as to disconnect the abutting section 510 and the limiting slider 410. At this time, the user moves the unlocking handle 300, and the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300. Since the communication section 520 is in communication with the sliding section 530, that is, the limiting slider 410 can be moved from the communication section 520 to the sliding section 530, when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, the limiting slider 410 can be moved from the communication section 520 to the sliding section 530, that is, the cable sleeve 210 is not limited by the limiting slider 410, so that the cable sleeve 210 will move together with the cable core wire 220. In the process of moving the cable sleeve 210, the limiting slider 410 moves from the communication section 520 to the sliding section 530. Since the cable sleeve 210 moves together with the cable core wire 220, the cable sleeve 210 will be disconnected from the lock body 10, and the reaction force generated by the lock body 10 will not be transmitted to the cable sleeve 210, so that the force applied to the door lock handle 20 cannot effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, and finally the lock body 10 cannot be unlocked, that is, the lock body 10 cannot be opened by moving the unlocking handle 300.

[0095] It should be noted that, since the clamping plate 420 and the limiting slide block 410 are connected together, that is, when the clamping plate 420 is installed in the recess 110, the limiting slide block 410 can be installed in the abutting section 510 or the communicating section 520, and when the installation is completed, the opening is covered by the end cover plate 800, so as to limit the limiting slide block 410 and the clamping plate 420, and ensure that the clamping plate 420 is always in the recess 110 and the limiting slide block 410 is always in the sliding groove 500.

[0096] Further, the connecting piece 810 is a plurality of bolt pieces.

[0097] The second aspect of the embodiment provides a vehicle door lock, which comprises a lock body 10 and the cable mechanism of any of the above embodiments.

[0098] The lock body 10 is provided with a lock bolt mechanism 11.

[0099] The cable core wire 220 of the cable mechanism is connected with the lock bolt mechanism 11, and the cable sleeve 210 of the cable mechanism is in abutment with the lock body 10.

[0100] Due to the vehicle door lock of the embodiment of the present application has the cable mechanism of the embodiment of the present application, the cable mechanism comprises a mounting seat 100, a cable assembly 200, an unlocking handle 300 and a limiting piece 400, the mounting seat 100 is provided with a limiting portion; the cable assembly 200 comprises a cable sleeve 210 and a cable core wire 220, the cable core wire 220 is arranged in the cable sleeve 210, one end of the cable core wire 220 is used for being connected with a lock bolt mechanism 11 of a lock body 10, the cable sleeve 210 is close to the lock body 10 and is used for abutting against the lock body 10; the unlocking handle 300 is arranged on the mounting seat 100, the unlocking handle 300 is used for being connected with the other end of the cable core wire 220, so as to pull the lock bolt mechanism 11 through the cable core wire 220; the limiting piece 400 is arranged on the cable sleeve 210, the limiting piece 400 is detachably connected with the limiting portion, the limiting piece 400 is configured to, when being connected with the limiting portion, limit the cable sleeve 210, so as to make the cable sleeve 210 keep abutting against the lock body 10 when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, so as to unlock the lock body 10; when being separated from the limiting portion, make the cable sleeve 210 be out of the limitation, so as to make the cable sleeve 210 move along with the cable core wire 220 when the cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, so as to make the cable sleeve 210 be out of abutting against the lock body 10.

[0101] The vehicle door lock of the present application is detachably connected with the limiting part through the limiting piece 400. When the owner is in the vehicle or the owner needs to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, the owner connects the limiting piece 400 with the limiting part in advance, thereby limiting the pull cable sleeve 210. Since the pull cable sleeve 210 is limited, the pull cable sleeve 210 always keeps abutting with the lock body 10, thereby making the pull cable sleeve 210 slide in the pull cable sleeve 210 when the pull cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300, the pull cable sleeve 210 keeps still, and the pulling force generated by the core wire acts on the bolt mechanism 11 of the lock body 10. At this time, the lock body 10 generates a counterforce, the counterforce generated by the lock body 10 is transmitted to the mounting seat 100 through the limited pull cable sleeve 210, thereby making the force applied on the door lock handle 20 effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, finally realizing the unlocking of the lock body 10, and further realizing the opening of the vehicle door. When the owner is not in the vehicle or the owner does not want to open the lock body 10 by moving the unlocking handle 300, that is, the owner wants to open the anti-theft mode, the owner separates the limiting piece 400 from the limiting part in advance, so that the pull cable sleeve 210 is separated from the limitation, thereby making the pull cable sleeve 210 move together with the pull cable core wire 220 when the pull cable core wire 220 is pulled by the unlocking handle 300. In the process of the pull cable sleeve 210 moving together with the pull cable core wire 220, the pull cable sleeve 210 will be separated from the abutment with the lock body 10. Since the pulling force generated by the core wire acts on the bolt mechanism 11 of the lock body 10, at this time, the lock body 10 generates a counterforce. Since the pull cable sleeve 210 is separated from the abutment with the lock body 10, the counterforce generated by the lock body 10 will not be transmitted to the pull cable sleeve 210, thereby making the force applied on the door lock handle 20 unable to effectively drive the bolt mechanism 11 to move, finally unable to realize the unlocking of the lock body 10, that is, the vehicle door cannot be opened by moving the door lock handle 20 at this time. The owner can connect or separate the limiting piece 400 from the limiting part according to specific needs, thereby improving the anti-theft performance of the vehicle door lock and protecting the property and personal safety in the vehicle.

[0102] The third aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, comprising a vehicle body and the vehicle door lock described above.

[0103] Since the vehicle of the embodiment of the present application has the vehicle door lock of the embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle needs to open the anti-theft mode, the limiting piece 400 is separated from the limiting part, thereby making the vehicle door unable to be opened by moving the door lock handle 20, and further improving the anti-theft performance of the vehicle and protecting the property and personal safety in the vehicle.

[0104] It should be noted that the cable mechanism of the embodiment of the present application can be applied not only to the door lock of the vehicle door, but also to the cabin cover unlocking handle 300, the oil tank cover unlocking handle 300, the trunk cover / back door unlocking handle 300, the rear seat folding unlocking handle 300, etc., and can be applied to other lock structures. The cable mechanism of the embodiment of the present application can be made into a universal module and added to various handle bases. When anti-theft is not needed, the cable mechanism module of the present application can be cancelled. The driving motor 610 can be connected to the vehicle machine and the central control screen through the CAN line, can be controlled through the CAN signal, and can achieve the needs in various functional scenes through the control logic. The "whether to start the anti-theft function after power-off?" switch state can be controlled through the central control screen, and the anti-theft state of each opened lock can be controlled through the check box and the like.
