At this time, when the locking member 301 and the locking fitting 302 are installed, the locking fitting 302 is facing the middle of the locking member 301, that is, the locking fitting 302 is facing the center of the adjusting member 201, and then the two auxiliary cables 300 are connected to the first end of the adjusting member 201, and the above-mentioned main zipper 200 is connected to the end of the adjusting fitting 202 away from the first end of the adjusting member 201. This is the initial state of the adjusting structure 100. In this initial state, the lengths of the two auxiliary cables 300 are the same.

[0085] When the double lock of the front cover lock needs to be opened in the initial state, it is only necessary to apply a pulling force to the main zipper 200, and then the pulling force acts on the adjusting fitting 202 through the main zipper 200, so that the adjusting fitting 202 can move along the accommodating cavity, and then the adjusting member 201 on the adjusting fitting 202 and the adjusting fitting 202 can move synchronously in the accommodating cavity, thereby driving the two auxiliary cables 300 on the adjusting member 201 to move synchronously, thereby completing the opening of the double lock of the front cover lock. When the pulling force acting on the main zipper 200 is less, the double lock of the front cover lock returns to the original locked position, and the auxiliary cable 300 can pull back the adjusting member 201 under the drive of the double lock of the front cover lock, thereby driving the adjusting fitting 202 to move in the accommodating cavity, completing the closing of the double lock of the front cover lock.

[0086] After being used for a period of time, the pull line of the auxiliary cable 300 will be deformed, so that the lengths of the two auxiliary cables 300 are inconsistent. At this time, the locking fitting 302 is operated to separate the locking fitting 302 from the locking fitting 301, so that the locking fitting 302 can be located in the unlocked position. At this time, a driving force is applied to the adjusting member 201. Under the action of the driving force, the adjusting member 201 can rotate relative to the adjusting fitting 202. During the rotation, the adjusting member 201 can apply an adjustment force to the ends of the two auxiliary cables 300 to adjust the length of at least one of the two auxiliary cables 300 in the accommodating cavity.

[0087] Here, adjusting the length of at least one of the two auxiliary cables 300 in the accommodation cavity can be understood as that when the lengths of the two auxiliary cables 300 are inconsistent, at least one of the two auxiliary cables 300 is deformed and loosened, and it can be that one or both of them are loosened. Figure 14 and Figure 15 At this time, by adjusting the adjusting member 201 to rotate relative to the adjusting fitting 202, for example, rotating it clockwise or counterclockwise, the slack auxiliary cable 300 can be driven to extend further into the accommodating cavity, thereby ensuring that the slack auxiliary cable 300 is in a re-tensioned state.

[0088] Among them, it should be noted that, in the process of opening and closing the double lock of the front cover lock, the above-mentioned locking fitting 302 is in contact with the above-mentioned locking fitting 301, and the locking fitting 302 is located in the locking position, thereby ensuring that in the process of opening and closing the double lock of the front cover lock, the adjusting member 201 is stably placed relative to the adjusting fitting 202, and the adjusting member 201 will not rotate with the adjusting fitting 202. When the adjusting member 201 needs to be rotated, the locking fitting 302 is separated from the locking member 301.

[0089] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the rotational stability between the adjusting member 201 and the adjusting fitting 202, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The above-mentioned adjustment structure 100 also includes a rotating connecting member 203, and a first mounting portion 2011 and a second mounting portion 2021 are respectively provided on the adjusting member 201 and the adjusting fitting member 202, the first mounting portion 2011 has a first cavity with openings at both ends, and the second mounting portion 2021 has a second cavity with an opening at least at one end; when the adjusting member 201 is set on the adjusting fitting member 202, the orthographic projections of the first cavity and the second cavity on the shell at least partially overlap, so as to allow one end of the rotating connecting member 203 to be suitable for passing through the first cavity and extending into the second cavity, and when the locking fitting member 302 is in the unlocked position relative to the locking member 301, under the action of external force, the part of the rotating connecting member 203 located in the second cavity rotates in the second cavity, so as to drive the adjusting member 201 to rotate on the adjusting fitting member 202 relative to the adjusting fitting member 202 through the part of the rotating connecting member 203 located in the first cavity.

[0090] By providing a first mounting portion 2011 and a second mounting portion 2021 on the adjusting member 201 and the adjusting fitting member 202, and both of them have a cavity, one end of the rotating connecting member 203 is adapted to pass through the first cavity and extend into the second cavity. When the locking fitting member 302 is in an unlocked position relative to the locking member 301, the portion of the rotating connecting member 203 located in the second cavity can rotate in the second cavity. At this time, the portion of the rotating connecting member 203 located in the first cavity can drive the adjusting member 201 to rotate relative to the adjusting fitting member 202. With the rotating connecting member 203 as the rotation center, the vertical distance between the two auxiliary cables 300 and the rotating connecting member 203 can be adjusted, and the rotating connecting member 203 is provided between the adjusting member 201 and the adjusting fitting member 202, which further ensures the rotation stability between the two, thereby achieving the effect of stably adjusting the length of the two auxiliary cables 300.

[0091] Specifically, the end of the above-mentioned rotating connecting member 203 located in the first cavity can be defined as the first end, and the end located in the second cavity can be defined as the second end. At this time, there is an interference fit between the first end and the first cavity, and a clearance fit between the second end and the second cavity, ensuring that the rotating connecting member 203 can drive the adjusting member 201 to rotate stably relative to the adjusting fitting member 202.

[0092] In actual use, in order to prevent the second end from falling out of the second cavity, the second mounting portion 2021 can be set as a second cavity with openings at both ends, and an annular boss is set on the outer wall surface of the second end, and an annular groove for placing the annular boss is set at the bottom of the second cavity. After the first cavity of the adjusting member 201 and the second cavity of the adjusting fitting 202 are set opposite each other, the first end of the rotating connecting member 203 is extended into the first cavity along the second cavity, and then the annular boss can be stuck in the annular groove. At this time, the process of connecting the adjusting member 201 and the adjusting fitting 202 using the rotating connecting member 203 is completed.

[0093] In this embodiment, in the process of adjusting the length of the two auxiliary cables 300, in order to prevent the auxiliary cables 300 from coming out of the adjusting member 201, see Figure 5 A secondary cable slot 2013 can be opened at the first end of the above-mentioned adjusting member 201, and the secondary cable slot 2013 is set in one-to-one correspondence with the ends of the two secondary cables 300. The ends of the secondary cables 300 are inserted into the corresponding secondary cable slots 2013. During the rotation movement of the above-mentioned adjusting member 201 relative to the adjusting fitting 202, the vertical distance of the end of one of the secondary cables in the slot 2013 relative to the above-mentioned rotating connection member 203 is reduced, and the vertical distance of the end of the other secondary cable in the slot 2013 relative to the above-mentioned rotating connection member 203 is increased, so as to adjust the vertical distance of the two secondary cables 300 relative to the rotating connection member 203.

[0094] By setting a secondary cable slot 2013 at the first end of the adjusting member 201, and then inserting the end of the secondary cable 300 into the secondary cable slot 2013, during the rotational movement of the adjusting member 201 relative to the adjusting fitting 202, the vertical distance of the end in one of the secondary cable slots 2013 relative to the rotating connecting member 203 is reduced, and the vertical distance of the end in the other secondary cable slot 2013 relative to the rotating connecting member 203 is increased, so as to adjust the vertical distance between the two secondary cables 300 and the rotating connecting member 203. The secondary cable slot 2013 can ensure the connection stability between the secondary cable 300 and the adjusting member 201, and can also realize the adjustment of the length of the two secondary cables 300.

[0095] In this embodiment, see Figure 13 The connecting distances between the two auxiliary cable slots 2013 and the rotating connector 203 are equal. By setting the connecting distances between the two auxiliary cable slots 2013 and the rotating connector 203 to be equal, it can be ensured that after the end of the auxiliary cable 300 is inserted into the auxiliary cable slot 2013, the connecting distances between the end of the two auxiliary cable slots 2013 and the rotating connector 203 are set to be equal, thereby improving the consistency of the two auxiliary cables 300 after adjustment.

[0096] During the specific setting, the first end of the above-mentioned adjustment member 201 can be set in an arc shape to ensure that the centers of the two auxiliary cable slots 2013 are distributed on an arc with the axis of the rotating connecting member 203 as the center, thereby ensuring that after the initial installation is completed, the vertical distances between the two auxiliary cable slots 2013 and the rotating connecting member 203 are equal.

[0097] Of course, considering the difficulty of molding, the first end of the above-mentioned adjustment member can also be a regular rectangle or direction. It is only necessary to distribute the centers of the two auxiliary cable grooves 2013 on the arc with the axis of the rotating connection member 203 as the center, so as to ensure that after the initial installation is completed, the vertical distances between the two auxiliary cable grooves 2013 and the rotating connection member 203 are equal.

[0098] In this embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 5 A guide portion 2012 can be provided on the surface of the adjusting member 201 facing the adjusting fitting member 202, and a corresponding guide fitting portion 2022 can be provided on the adjusting fitting member 202. During the rotational movement of the adjusting member 201 relative to the adjusting fitting member 202, the guide portion 2012 is suitable for moving along the guide fitting portion 2022.

[0099] By setting a guide portion 2012 on the surface of the adjusting member 201 facing the adjusting fitting member 202, and correspondingly opening a guide fitting portion 2022 on the adjusting fitting member 202, during the rotational movement of the adjusting member 201 relative to the adjusting fitting member 202, the guide portion 2012 is suitable for moving along the guide fitting portion 2022, and can provide a guiding function for the adjusting member 201, thereby ensuring smooth and stable rotation.

[0100] In actual use, the above-mentioned guide part 2012 can be set as a guide column formed on the above-mentioned adjusting member 201, and the above-mentioned guide matching part 2022 is a guide groove opened on the above-mentioned adjusting matching member 202. One end of the guide column is suitable for extending into the guide groove. During the rotation of the adjusting member 201 relative to the adjusting matching member 202, the guide column can move along the guide groove. Therefore, the guide groove also guides the guide column, avoiding the situation where the position of the adjusting member 201 is greatly offset during the rotation process.

[0101] In order to further ensure the stability of the adjusting member 201 during the rotational movement relative to the adjusting fitting 202 , the guide groove may be arranged in an arc shape, and the curvature of the guide groove is the same as that of the arc shape of the adjusting member 201 .

[0102] By setting the curvature of the guide groove to be the same as the curvature of the adjusting member 201 , the stability of the adjusting member 201 during the rotational movement relative to the adjusting fitting 202 when the guide post moves in the guide groove can be further ensured.

[0103] See also Figure 5 In this embodiment, the side surface of the second end of the above-mentioned adjusting member 201 is set as an arc-shaped surface, and the above-mentioned locking member 301 is formed on the arc-shaped surface. By setting the side surface of the second end of the adjusting member 201 as an arc-shaped surface and the locking member 301 being formed on the arc-shaped surface, it can be ensured that when the locking fitting 302 and the locking member 301 are maintained in the locked position, the locking member 301 is stably set on the adjusting member 201, further ensuring the stability of the adjusting member 201.

[0104] Of course, as another convertible embodiment, the locking member 301 can also be bonded or connected to the end side surface of the second end of the adjusting member 201 via a fastener.

[0105] The above-mentioned locking member 301 in this embodiment is a plurality of tooth structures, and a plurality of teeth are arranged in sequence on the side surface of the first end, and there is a gap between two adjacent teeth. The end of the locking fitting 302 is suitable for extending into or out of the gap so that the locking fitting 302 can switch between a locked position and an unlocked position relative to the locking member 301.

[0106] By setting the locking member 301 as a plurality of tooth structures, and the tooth structures are arranged in sequence on the side surface of the first end of the adjusting member 201, there is a gap between two adjacent teeth, and the end of the locking fitting 302 is suitable for extending into or out of the gap, so that the locking fitting 302 can switch between the locking position and the unlocking position relative to the locking member 301. The structure of the locking member 301 is simple, easy to form, and the switching method is convenient.

[0107] As another convertible embodiment, the above-mentioned locking member 301 can also be a plurality of grooves formed on the adjusting member 201, and one end of the locking fitting 302 extends into or out of the groove at the corresponding position, so as to facilitate the locking fitting 302 to switch between the unlocking position and the locking position relative to the locking member 301.

[0108] The locking assembly 3 in this embodiment also includes a locking biasing member 303, which is installed on the adjusting fitting 202 through a mounting seat 304, and one end of the locking fitting 302 is connected to the locking biasing member 303. The locking biasing member 303 is suitable for applying a locking biasing force to the locking fitting 302 so that the locking fitting 302 remains in a locked position relative to the locking member 301.

[0109] The locking biasing member 303 is installed on the adjusting fitting 202 through the mounting seat 304, and one end of the locking fitting 302 is connected to the locking biasing member 303, and the locking biasing member 303 is used to apply a locking biasing force to the locking fitting 302, so that the locking fitting 302 is maintained in a locked position relative to the locking member 301. It can ensure that before and after the adjusting member 201 is rotated, the adjusting member 201 can apply a locking biasing force to the locking fitting 302, avoiding the position change of the locking fitting 302 relative to the locking member 301, and achieving the effect of stable placement between the locking member 301 and the locking fitting 302, thereby ensuring the stable installation between the adjusting member 201 and the adjusting fitting 202, and finally achieving the stability of the auxiliary cable 300 during use.

[0110] See also Figure 3 In actual use, a mounting platform 2024 is provided on the above-mentioned adjusting fitting 202 corresponding to the mounting seat 304, and a mounting groove is provided on the mounting platform 2024. The above-mentioned mounting seat 304 is provided with a cylindrical structure having an open cavity at one end, and a mounting protrusion is provided at one end of the cylindrical structure corresponding to the mounting groove. The mounting protrusion is inserted into the mounting groove to install the mounting seat 304 on the mounting platform 2024, and then the mounting seat 304 is installed on the adjusting fitting 202, and the opening of the mounting seat 304 faces the locking fitting. The locking member 302 is provided, and the above-mentioned locking biasing member 303 is provided as a locking spring. The locking spring is provided in the open cavity, and one end of the locking spring abuts against the mounting seat 304, and the other end is connected to the locking fitting 302. When the locking fitting 302 abuts against the locking member 301 to be located in the locked position, the locking spring can apply a locking biasing force to the locking fitting 302, so that the locking fitting 302 has a tendency to move toward the locking member 301, thereby allowing the locking fitting 302 to remain in the locked position.

[0111] See also Figure 7-10 The locking assembly 3 in this embodiment also includes a locking drive 305, which is installed on the adjustment fitting 202 through a mounting arm 306, and one end of the locking drive 305 is set toward the locking fitting 302. Under the action of external force, the locking drive 305 can apply a driving force to the above-mentioned locking fitting 302, so that the above-mentioned locking fitting 302 overcomes the above-mentioned locking bias force and exits the gap formed on the adjustment member 201 to switch from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0112] When the cam 312 is in the unlocked position, the locking member 302 is in the unlocked position, and the locking member 302 is in the unlocked position.

[0113] It should be noted that when the locking drive member 305 is installed on the adjustment fitting 202 through the mounting arm 306, the locking drive member 305 and the locking fitting 302 are spaced apart. Only when the locking drive member 305 is subjected to external force will it abut against the locking fitting 302, thereby applying driving force to the locking fitting 302.

[0114] See also Figure 7 In this embodiment, the locking driving member 305 and the locking matching member 302 can be arranged with an inclined surface to facilitate the application of force.

[0115] See also Figure 7 The locking assembly 3 in this embodiment further includes a return biasing member 307. A return biasing member 307 is provided between each of the two arms of the mounting arm 306 and the adjustment fitting 202. Each return biasing member 307 is adapted to apply a return biasing force to the mounting arm 306. Under the action of this return biasing force, the mounting arm 306 tends to drive the locking driver 305 away from the locking fitting 302. By providing the return biasing member 307 and applying the return biasing force to the mounting arm 306, when the driving force applied to the locking driver 305 is canceled, the mounting arm 306 and the locking driver 305 can automatically return to their original positions, allowing the locking fitting 302 and the locking member 301 to switch positions next time.

[0116] The above-mentioned shell in this embodiment includes an upper shell 102 and a lower shell 103. The upper shell 102 and the lower shell 103 are connected to form a accommodating cavity. A hole 1021 is opened on the upper shell 102. One end of the locking drive member 305 extends out of the accommodating cavity along the hole 1021 to serve as a force-bearing end. The locking drive member 305 is extended out of the accommodating cavity through the hole 1021, which facilitates the operator to operate the locking drive member 305.

[0117] In this embodiment, see Figure 6 , snap-in holes can also be opened at both ends of the lower shell 103 for snapping the main zipper 200 and the two auxiliary cables 300 into the snap-in holes to complete the installation of the main zipper 200 and the auxiliary cables 300 on the shell. The snap-in holes are set in different shapes corresponding to the main zipper 200 and the auxiliary cables 300.

[0118] In this embodiment, mounting posts 2023 are provided on the two arms of the adjustment fitting 202 corresponding to the mounting arms 306. Any mounting post 2023 has a mounting cavity, and the two arms are suitable for being inserted into the corresponding mounting cavity. The above-mentioned return biasing member 307 is provided in the mounting cavity and is located between the two arms and the adjustment fitting 202.

[0119] Specifically, the return biasing member 307 may be configured as a return spring, such as a cylindrical spring, or other components, such as rubber.

[0120] In this embodiment, see Figure 11 An operation through hole 1022 can be opened on the above-mentioned upper shell 102, and one end of the rotating connecting member 203 is located in the operation through hole 1022 to serve as the force-bearing end. By opening the operation through hole 1022 on the upper shell 102 and positioning one end of the rotating connecting member 203 in the operation through hole 1022 to serve as the force-bearing end, it is convenient for the operator to operate the rotating connecting member 203 to rotate so as to drive the adjusting member 201 to rotate relative to the adjusting mating member 202, thereby facilitating the operation of the operator.

[0121] In order to more conveniently apply force to the rotating connecting member 203, an action hole can be opened on one end of the operating hole 1022 of the rotating connecting member 203, and a bolt or other connecting member can be inserted into the action hole to apply rotational force to the adjusting member 201. The action hole is set as a bar hole.

[0122] In this embodiment, in order to prevent the main cable from coming out of the adjustment fitting 202, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 A main zipper slot 2026 can be provided on the end of the adjusting member 202 away from the first end of the adjusting member 201, and the main zipper 200 is suitable for being inserted into the main zipper slot 2026. Figure 4The main zipper slot 2026 is provided at the bottom of the adjustment fitting 202 .

[0123] The ends of the main zipper 200 and the two auxiliary cables 300 in this embodiment include ball heads and pull wires. The main zipper slot 2026 and the auxiliary cable slot 2013 both include a wire groove and a ball head groove that are connected to each other. The ball head groove is for placing the ball head, and the wire groove is for setting the pull wire. The wire groove is L-shaped, and the ball head groove is circular.

[0124] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 The wire groove is L-shaped, the pull wire is located in the wire groove, and the two long ends of the two L-shaped wire grooves are arranged opposite to each other. When the adjusting member 201 is rotated relative to the adjusting fitting 202, the deformed pull wire will be pulled from the short part of the L-shaped wire groove to the long part of the wire groove.

[0125] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned adjustment fitting 202 can be set to a rectangular block shape. When the main zipper 200 is used to pull the secondary zipper to open and close the front cover lock, in order to improve the smoothness of the movement of the adjustment fitting 202 in the accommodating cavity, limiting ribs 1031 can be set on the two inner side walls of the lower shell 103, and corresponding limiting grooves 2025 are set on the side wall surfaces of the adjustment fitting 202. The limiting grooves 2025 on the adjustment fitting 202 move along the limiting ribs 1031 in the lower shell 103, thereby improving the smoothness of the adjustment fitting 202.

[0126] According to another aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, a front hood lock is provided, comprising a main zipper 200, two secondary cables 300, and an adjustment structure 100. The adjustment structure 100 is the adjustment structure 100 described above, and the main zipper 200 is connected to the two secondary cables 300 via the adjustment structure 100. During use, the front hood lock can adjust the travel of the two secondary cables 300 independently, further ensuring synchronized opening and closing of the dual locks of the front hood lock, providing ease of use.

[0127] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a vehicle is provided, comprising a front hood lock, wherein the front hood lock is a front hood lock as described above. After the vehicle adopts the front hood lock, the front hood of the vehicle is convenient to use and is easy for the user to use.

[0128] The overall operating principle of the adjustment structure 100 of this embodiment is as follows:

[0129] The double lock is unlocked by operating the two auxiliary cables 300 simultaneously through a main cable. In the initial state, the locking fitting 302 and the locking fitting 301 are locked in the middle position. When the double locks of the front cover lock are not unlocked synchronously, they can be adjusted synchronously through the adjustment structure 100. When performing synchronous adjustment, it is necessary to press the locking drive part 305 to push the locking fitting 302 to separate from the locking part 301, and then use an external tool such as a flat-blade screwdriver to operate the bar hole on the adjusting part 201 to rotate the adjusting part 201 clockwise or counterclockwise by a certain angle, loosen the locking drive part 305, and let the locking part 301 and the locking fitting 302 re-engage, and confirm that the double locks are synchronized. The specific rotation direction depends on the actual situation. In actual use, the rotating connection can be operated without removing the upper shell from the lower shell, which is convenient to use.

[0130] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments for fully illustrating the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitution or modification made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention is within the protection scope of the present invention.
