Detailed implementation manners
[0057] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0058] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the present application provides a handle assembly 100, including a base 1, an electric drive member 2 and a handle 3. The electric drive member 2 is installed on the base 1; the handle 3 is movably connected to the base 1; wherein, the electric drive member 2 can drive the handle 3 to switch between a locked state and an unlocked state. When the handle 3 is in the unlocked state, the handle 3 drives an external component to move. When the handle 3 is in the locked state, the base 1 restricts the movement of the handle 3.
[0059] In the technical solution of this application, the locking state and unlocking state of the handle 3 are controlled by introducing an electric driving member 2. When the vehicle is in the power-off state, the handle 3 is locked and cannot be externally operated. Even if an illegal person breaks the window and tries to directly pull the handle 3, the handle 3 cannot be moved. This effectively prevents the external components from being illegally opened, improves the anti-theft performance, and enhances the safety of the vehicle.
[0060] This application does not specifically limit the way in which the electric driving member 2 can drive the handle 3 to switch between the locked state and the unlocked state. For example, a pin hole is provided on the handle 3, a plug pin is provided on the base 1, and the electric driving member 2 can drive the plug pin to enter and exit the pin hole, so as to realize the switching between the locked state and the unlocked state of the handle 3. Also, for example, the electric driving member 2 drives the handle 3 to be telescopically arranged, and the handle 3 can be hidden in the vehicle body and in an inoperable locked state, or be exposed and in an operable unlocked state.
[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the handle assembly 100 further includes a bracket 4. The handle 3 is used to connect to an external component through the bracket 4, and the bracket 4 is movably connected between the base 1 and the handle 3; the electric driving member 2 drives the bracket 4 to switch between a first position and a second position. When the bracket 4 is in the first position, the handle 3 is in the unlocked state. When the bracket 4 is in the second position (as Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the handle 3 is in the locked state. In these embodiments, the bracket 4 serves as an intermediate connecting member between the handle 3 and external components (such as the front hood) and between the handle 3 and the base 1, undertaking the function of transmitting torque, and at the same time realizing the locking and unlocking of the handle 3 through the change of its position. In the locked state, the bracket 4 is driven by the electric driving member 2 to the second position, restricting the movement of the handle 3, such as the rotation of the handle 3; in the unlocked state, the bracket 4 moves to the first position, allowing the handle 3 to move freely, for example, the handle 3 can rotate and drive the external components to move. This design enables the locking and unlocking states of the handle 3 to be precisely controlled through the position change of the bracket 4. It can be understood that if the handle 3 is directly connected to the external components, the mechanical structure may be too complex or fragile, especially in the case where additional anti-theft functions are required. After introducing the bracket 4, the complex locking / unlocking mechanism can be concentrated on the bracket 4, and the handle 3 itself only needs to complete the basic rotation operation, thus maintaining the simplicity of the handle 3 design. In addition, the introduction of the bracket 4 provides a clear physical barrier for the anti-theft function. When the vehicle is in the power-off state, the electric driving member 2 fixes the bracket 4 in the second position (the locked state of the handle 3). Even if the handle 3 is externally violently operated (such as pulled or pried), the bracket 4 cannot be moved. The bracket 4 can disperse the impact of external violent operations (such as pulling or prying) on the entire system, avoiding mechanical failure or damage caused by directly acting on the handle 3, thereby effectively preventing the external components from being illegally opened. Additionally, the bracket 4, as an independent modular component, can be flexibly adjusted or optimized according to the requirements of different vehicle models. For example, the shape, size, and installation position of the bracket 4 can be flexibly designed to adapt to the space layout of different vehicle models or specific usage scenarios. If the bracket 4 fails, it can be replaced or repaired individually without replacing the entire handle assembly 100.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , in some embodiments, the base 1 is provided with a locking portion 11; the bracket 4 is provided with a mating portion 41; when the bracket 4 is in the first position, the mating portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are unlocked, and the bracket 4 can be driven by the handle 3 to drive the external components to move. When the bracket 4 is in the second position, the mating portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are locked (as Figure 1As shown, the movement of the bracket 4 and the handle 3 is limited. In these embodiments, through the design of the mating portion 41 and the locking portion 11, when the bracket 4 switches between the first position and the second position, the handle 3 can switch between the unlocked state and the locked state. This mechanical locking method provides a highly reliable locking mechanism, ensuring that in the locked state, no unauthorized operation can move the handle 3 and the bracket 4. Specifically, when the bracket 4 is in the second position, the mating portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are combined, the bracket 4 is restricted by the base 1, and the handle 3 is also restricted and cannot move. When unlocking is required, the electric drive member 2 moves the bracket 4 to the first position, causing the mating portion 41 and the locking portion 11 to separate. The bracket 4 is released from the restriction of the base 1 and can be driven by the handle 3, thereby driving the external components to move. This design enables the locked state and the unlocked state of the handle 3 to be further achieved through a mechanical structure, improving reliability.
[0063] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the base 1 and the handle 3 are arranged along a first direction, the bracket 4 is disposed between the base 1 and the handle 3, and the bracket 4 can move along the first direction to move to the first position or the second position. In these embodiments, by arranging the base 1 and the handle 3 along the first direction and allowing the bracket 4 to move along the first direction between the base 1 and the handle 3, the structure of the handle assembly 100 is made more compact. The linear movement of the bracket 4 between the first position and the second position not only simplifies the interaction between mechanical components but also improves the reliability and service life of the assembly, thus facilitating the realization of the locking and unlocking functions of the handle 3.
[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the first position is set farther from the handle 3 than the second position; one side of the handle 3 facing the base 1 is used to be limited by the vehicle body. In these embodiments, the first position is close to the base 1, while the second position is close to the handle 3 (i.e., in Figure 1 and Figure 5 , the first position is on the right and the second position is on the left). One side of the handle 3 facing the base 1 being limited by the vehicle body means that the handle 3 cannot move in the direction from the second position to the first position (i.e., in Figure 1 and Figure 5 , the movement of the handle 3 from left to right is restricted), so that the handle 3 cannot drive the bracket 4 to move from the second position to the first position. Therefore, the mating portion 41 and the locking portion 11 cannot be unlocked, eliminating the possibility of releasing the mechanical lock between the bracket 4 and the base 1 through the handle 3 (i.e., eliminating the possibility of unlocking by pressing the handle 3 to the right), improving the overall reliability.
[0065] Please refer to Figures 6 to 9 (Figure 6 The display bracket 4 faces the side of the handle 3, Figure 7 The display bracket 4 faces one side of the base 1. Figure 8 The display base 1 faces the side of the bracket 4, Figure 9 The side of the base 1 facing the electric drive member 2 is shown. In some embodiments, the bracket 4 includes a bracket body 43 and a lug 44 arranged on the outer peripheral side of the bracket body 43; the base 1 includes a base body 12 and an extension portion 13 arranged on the side of the base body 12 facing the bracket 4, and a bending portion 14 bent and connected to the extension portion 13, and the bending portion 14 is located on the side of the lug 44 away from the base 1 (refer to Figure 1 The locking portion 11 and the matching portion 41 are formed between the bent portion 14 and the lug 44. It can be understood that the first position is close to the base 1, the matching portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are unlocked, and the second position is far away from the base 1, the matching portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are locked, which means that when the bracket 4 is close to the base 1, the matching portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are separated, and when the bracket 4 is far away from the base 1, the matching portion 41 and the locking portion 11 are combined (as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1 , the bending portion 14 is extended to the travel range of the lug 44 by the extension portion 13, so as to ensure that the bending portion 14 can effectively block the lug 44 when the bracket 4 is in the second position, thereby forming a reliable physical barrier to prevent the bracket 4 from being driven by the handle 3; and in the first position (i.e., in Figure 1 On the basis of the above, the bracket 4 moves to the right by a certain distance), the lug 44 is free from the restriction of the bent portion 14, and the bracket 4 can move freely. In this way, the spatial layout of the base 1 and the bracket 4 is fully utilized, making the entire handle assembly 100 more compact, while optimizing the interaction between mechanical parts and improving the stability and durability of the system. The present application does not limit the specific settings of the matching portion 41 and the locking portion 11.
[0066] See also Figure 10 In some embodiments, the matching portion 41 includes a limiting hole 411, which is provided on the side of the lug 44 facing the bending portion 14; the locking portion 11 includes a convex portion 111, which is provided on the side of the bending portion 14 facing the lug 44. In these embodiments, the precise locking and unlocking of the bracket 4 between the first position and the second position are achieved through the cooperation between the limiting hole 411 and the convex portion 111. When the bracket 4 is in the first position, the convex portion 111 is separated from the limiting hole 411, the bracket 4 can move freely, and the handle 3 connected to the bracket 4 is in an unlocked state; when the bracket 4 is in the second position, the convex portion 111 is inserted into the limiting hole 411, the bracket 4 is locked, and the handle 3 is also in a locked state (as shown in FIG. 1 ). Figure 10 This structure is simple and reliable, and can effectively prevent the handle 3 from being illegally operated in the locked state, while ensuring free movement in the unlocked state.
[0067] See alsoFigures 6 to 8 In some embodiments, the matching portion 41 includes a notch groove 412, which is disposed on the side of the lug 44 facing the bent portion 14; the end of the bent portion 14 away from the extension portion 13 forms the locking portion 11. In these embodiments, the locking and unlocking functions of the bracket 4 between the first position and the second position are also achieved through the cooperation of the notch groove 412 and the bent portion 14. When the bracket 4 is in the first position, the bent portion 14 is separated from the notch groove 412, the bracket 4 can move freely, and the handle 3 is in the unlocked state; when the bracket 4 is in the second position, the end of the bent portion 14 away from the extension portion 13 is inserted into the notch groove 412 (refer to Figure 1 ), the bracket 4 is locked, the handle 3 is in a locked state, the locking portion 11 is directly formed by the end of the bending portion 14 away from the extension portion 13, and no additional protrusion 111 is required. The design reduces the complexity of components and makes the structure more concise. When the bracket 4 is in the second position, the bending portion 14 is located in the notch groove 412 and no longer occupies additional space, making the structure more compact, and accurate locking and unlocking operations can be achieved in a smaller space.
[0068] The present application does not limit the specific shape of the notch groove 412, and its shape can be designed as a regular or irregular polygonal prism, such as a triangle, rectangle, pentagon or hexagon. This design forms a matching contact surface with the bending portion 14 through different polygonal surfaces, thereby achieving a more stable clamping effect. Figure 6 As shown, the notched groove 412 in the form of a prism can provide more contact surfaces and positioning points for the bending portion 14, further enhancing the stability and anti-falling ability of the clamping. In addition, the notched groove 412 can also be designed in the form of a prism, such as a trapezoidal prism or a pyramidal prism. This design provides a guiding effect for the bending portion 14 through the inclined prism surface, which is convenient for the insertion and removal operation of the bending portion 14. The notched groove 412 in the form of a prism can also achieve the limiting and guiding functions of the bending portion 14 by adjusting the inclination angle and the number of prism surfaces. Regardless of whether the prism form or the prism form is adopted, the design core of the notched groove 412 is to achieve precise clamping with the bending portion 14 through matching of geometric shapes. Specifically, the contact surface of the notched groove 412 has an angle with the radial direction of the bracket 4, ensuring that when the bracket 4 rotates, the bending portion 14 will not fall out of the notched groove 412, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the system.
[0069] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7, in some embodiments, the lug 44 is further provided with a through hole 441 for threading a cable 200 connected to an external component. In these embodiments, the provision of the through hole 441 enables the bracket 4 to achieve a reliable mechanical connection with an external component (such as a front hood) through the cable 200, thereby ensuring that the movement of the handle 3 can be effectively transmitted to the external component to achieve its opening or closing function. At the same time, setting the through hole 441 on the lug 44 optimizes the structural layout of the handle assembly 100, making the arrangement of the cable 200 more concise and compact, reducing the overall volume and complexity of the assembly. In addition, the design of the through hole 441 facilitates later maintenance and replacement, making the installation and disassembly of the cable 200 more convenient. If the cable 200 needs to be adjusted or replaced, it can be operated simply through the through hole 441 without the need for large-scale disassembly and adjustment of the entire handle assembly 100, which is convenient for maintenance and model change.
[0070] Reference Figure 11 ( Figure 11 (showing the side of the handle 3 facing the bracket 4), in some embodiments, the handle 3 includes a handle body 31 and a first connecting cylinder 32. The first connecting cylinder 32 is connected to the side of the handle body 31 facing the bracket 4 and extends in a first direction; at least a part of the bracket body 43 is disposed within the first connecting cylinder 32 and can slide along the inner peripheral wall of the first connecting cylinder 32 (reference Figure 5 ). In these embodiments, by disposing a part of the bracket body 43 within the first connecting cylinder 32 and enabling it to slide along the inner peripheral wall of the first connecting cylinder 32, precise guidance and stable movement between the bracket 4 and the handle 3 are achieved. This design not only improves the smoothness and reliability of the bracket 4 when switching between the first position and the second position, but also reduces the friction and wear between mechanical components, extending the service life of the system.
[0071] Reference Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 11, in some embodiments, the inner peripheral wall of the first connecting cylinder 32 is provided with a guiding groove 321 extending in the first direction; the bracket 4 further includes a key portion 431 protruding from the outer peripheral side of the bracket body 43, the key portion 431 extends in the first direction, the key portion 431 is disposed in the guiding groove 321, and can slide along the guiding groove 321, and restricts the rotation of the bracket 4 and the handle 3. In these embodiments, the cooperation between the key portion 431 and the guiding groove 321 enables the bracket 4 and the handle 3 to move relative to each other in the first direction, but cannot rotate relative to the axis extending in the first direction, thereby realizing the rotational synchronization of the handle 3 and the bracket 4. Specifically, when the bracket 4 is in the second position, the locking portion 11 and the mating portion 41 are locked, and the bracket 4 cannot rotate, so that the handle 3 that rotates synchronously therewith also cannot rotate, and thus is in the locked state; when the bracket 4 is in the first position, the locking portion 11 and the mating portion 41 are unlocked, and the bracket 4 can rotate, so that the handle 3 that rotates synchronously therewith can also rotate, and thus is in the unlocked state, and the rotation of the handle 3 drives the external components to move through the bracket 4. Through the cooperation between the key portion 431 and the guiding groove 321, not only the relative movement of the handle 3 and the bracket 4 in the first direction is realized, but also their synchronization in rotation is ensured, improving the operation accuracy and reliability of the handle assembly 100.
[0072] Reference Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the handle body 31 is further provided with a first accommodation cavity 311, the first accommodation cavity 311 communicates with the first connecting cylinder 32; the bracket 4 further includes a first buckle 45 connected to the bracket body 43, and the first buckle 45 extends into the first accommodation cavity 311 from the first connecting cylinder 32. In these embodiments, through the cooperation between the first buckle 45 and the first accommodation cavity 311, while ensuring the relative movement and synchronous rotation of the handle 3 and the bracket 4 in the first direction, the accidental detachment between the handle 3 and the bracket 4 is prevented, ensuring the reliable connection between the handle 3 and the bracket 4, avoiding operation failure or safety hazards caused by component detachment, and improving the overall stability and reliability of the handle assembly 100.
[0073] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 8 , in some embodiments, the base 1 further includes a second connecting cylinder 15, the second connecting cylinder 15 is connected to the side of the seat body 12 facing the bracket 4, and the second connecting cylinder 15 extends in the first direction; at least a part of the bracket body 43 is disposed in the second connecting cylinder 15 and can slide along the inner peripheral wall of the second connecting cylinder 15. In these embodiments, through the cooperation between the second connecting cylinder 15 and the bracket body 43, the precise guiding and stable movement between the bracket 4 and the base 1 are realized, bringing remarkable technical effects: specifically, the second connecting cylinder 15 provides a stable guiding path for the bracket 4, ensuring the smoothness and reliability when the bracket 4 switches between the first position and the second position, reducing the friction and wear between mechanical components, and extending the service life of the system.

[0076] The present application does not limit the electric driving member 2. For example, the electric driving member 2 can be a small motor, which drives the bracket 4 to move between the first position and the second position through a gear or rack transmission device to provide precise position control; the electric driving member 2 can also be a linear actuator, which directly pushes or pulls the bracket 4 to move along the first direction; in addition, a pneumatic or hydraulic driving device can also be adopted, and the bracket 4 is driven to move through a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0078] This application does not limit the type of the magnetic object 42 either. For example, the magnetic object 42 can be a permanent magnet, and its stable magnetic field characteristics are utilized to cooperate with the electromagnet 21 to achieve adsorption; it can also be a soft magnetic material (such as silicon steel sheet or iron-nickel alloy), which is magnetized when the electromagnet 21 is energized and generates an adsorption force, and the magnetism disappears after power-off, ensuring that the bracket 4 can move freely.
[0079] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some examples, the second buckle 46 is the magnetic object 42, and this design enables the second buckle 46 to be adsorbed when the electromagnet 21 is energized, thereby driving the bracket 4 to move from the second position to the first position (that is, Figure 5 the electromagnet 21 in adsorbs the second buckle 46, causing the bracket 4 to move from left to right), ensuring a firm connection between the bracket 4 and the base 1 and preventing accidental detachment, while simplifying the structure and improving the response speed and reliability of the system.
[0080] It can be understood that when the electric driving member 2 is a motor, a linear actuator, a pneumatic or hydraulic driving device, the electric driving member 2 can not only drive the bracket 4 to move from the second position to the first position, but also drive the bracket 4 to move from the first position to the second position in the reverse direction. When the electric driving member 2 is the electromagnet 21 and the magnetic object 42 is a permanent magnet, the polarity of the electromagnet 21 can be switched by changing the energizing direction of the electromagnet 21, thereby generating a repulsive force to drive the bracket 4 to move from the first position to the second position in the reverse direction.
[0081] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the handle assembly 100 further includes a first elastic member 5, and the first elastic member 5 is disposed between the bracket 4 and the base 1. When the bracket 4 moves from the second position to the first position, the first elastic member 5 is driven to deform. In these embodiments, the first elastic member 5 stores energy during the process of the bracket 4 moving from the second position to the first position. When it is necessary to move the bracket 4 from the first position back to the second position, the restoring force of the first elastic member 5 can push the bracket 4 to move automatically without relying on the electric driving member 2. This not only reduces the usage frequency of the electric driving member 2 and extends its service life, but also improves the reliability and response speed of the handle assembly 100, while simplifying the control logic and reducing the complexity and cost of the system.
[0082] In some examples, the first elastic member 5 is a spring, and the spring is disposed around the second buckle 46 and is located within the second connecting cylinder 15.
[0083] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5, in some embodiments, the handle assembly 100 further includes a second elastic member 6. The second elastic member 6 is disposed between the bracket 4 and the base 1. When the bracket 4 is driven by the handle 3 to move, it drives the second elastic member 6 to elastically deform. In these embodiments, the second elastic member 6 stores energy when the bracket 4 is driven by the handle 3 to move. When the handle 3 is released, the restoring force of the second elastic member 6 can automatically reset the bracket 4, thereby driving the handle 3 back to the initial position. This improves the automatic reset ability of the handle 3 and enhances the operation convenience and user experience.
[0084] Reference Figure 5 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10 , in some examples, on one side of the seat body 12 facing the bracket 4, a first positioning hole 122 and a limiting block 123 are provided. On the bottom of the annular groove 432, a second positioning hole 4321 is provided. The second elastic member 6 is a torsion spring, which is wound around the second connecting cylinder 15. The torsion spring is accommodated in the annular groove 432. The outer peripheral side of the torsion spring is limited by the limiting block 123, and the two ends of the torsion spring are respectively inserted into the first positioning hole 122 and the second positioning hole 4321.
[0085] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 , in some examples, the seat body 12 further has a mounting hole 124 for passing through a fastener to mount the base 1 on the vehicle body.
[0086] Reference Figure 9 , in some examples, the seat body 12 further has a connection hole 125 for passing through a fastener to mount the electric drive member 2 on the seat body 12.
[0087] In some embodiments, the working principle of the handle assembly 100 is as follows: As Figure 1 shown, the bracket 4 is in the second position, the locking portion 11 and the mating portion 41 are locked, and the bracket 4 cannot rotate. Therefore, the handle 3 cannot rotate either, and thus is in a locked state and cannot be rotated, so that the external component cannot be opened through the bracket 4, playing an anti-theft role. When the external component needs to be opened, control the electromagnet 21 to be energized to adsorb the magnetic object 42 on the bracket 4, and the bracket 4 moves closer to the base 1 (i.e., on the basis of Figure 1 the bracket 4 moves to the right), the locking portion 11 and the mating portion 41 are unlocked, and the bracket 4 can rotate relative to the base 1. At this time, rotate the handle 3 clockwise, the handle 3 drives the bracket 4 to rotate clockwise, pulls the cable 200, and opens the external component. At this time, the spring and the torsion spring store energy, the electromagnet 21 is powered off, the external force acting on the handle 3 is removed, the bracket 4 resets to the first position, and the bracket 4 and the handle 3 return to the angle before rotation. The locking portion 11 and the mating portion 41 are locked, and the handle 3 is in the locked state again.
