Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle door handles, and more particularly to an emergency flip-up handle that can provide sufficient hand-holding space. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the automotive industry, for the comprehensive consideration of reducing the drag coefficient and improving the aesthetics, hidden door handles are becoming more and more popular. In an emergency, users can quickly open the door with intuitive operation using traditional mechanical door handles. However, in order to achieve the hidden effect, most hidden door handles are popped up by means of electric control. When the vehicle encounters emergencies such as electronic system failures, power outages, and collisions that cause the system to paralyze, the electric opening function fails, and an emergency opening device must be relied on. However, in order to maintain the simplicity and beauty of the overall design, these emergency opening methods need to be highly concealed. As one of the current emergency opening methods, the flip-up handle realizes the emergency unlocking of the door by pulling the handle body to flip it up. In order to make the handle look beautiful, the handle is relatively flat and compact in structural design, and only the handle body part is concave to form a space for the user's fingers to extend into. This directly leads to the situation that when the user needs to urgently open the door, the fingers may not be able to fully surround the handle, resulting in a poor grip feeling. When opening the door, additional force is required to adjust the posture. Especially for ladies with long nails, it is more inconvenient to hold the handle to open the door, resulting in a poor experience and being disadvantageous for use in an emergency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Aiming at the problem that the existing hidden door handles are not convenient for emergency opening, the present invention provides an emergency flip-up handle that can provide sufficient hand-holding space, which can provide sufficient space for the fingers to extend into when in use, so as to provide enough hand-holding area to open the door through the handle.

[0004] Its technical solution is as follows: an emergency flip-up handle that can provide sufficient hand-holding space, comprising:

[0005] A base for connecting to the vehicle body;

[0006] A handle body rotatably connected to the base, and a cavity one for the user's finger to extend into is provided at the bottom of the handle body;

[0007] It is characterized in that: a cavity two is provided in the base, the cavity one penetrates through the handle body and communicates with the cavity two, and the cavity two allows the user's finger to pass through the cavity one and extend into the cavity two.

[0008] Furthermore, when the handle body is not pulled, a sealing ring is provided between the handle body and the base, and the sealing ring is arranged around the bottom edge of the cavity two.

[0009] Further, the handle body further includes connecting arms disposed on both sides thereof, and the connecting arms are connected to the base through an installation structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the connecting arms extend upward and are connected to the installation structure located above the second cavity, and the second cavity is located between the connecting arms on both sides.

[0011] Furthermore, the installation structure includes a pin shaft and an elastic reset element. The connecting arm is rotatably connected to the pin shaft, and the elastic reset element is disposed between the connecting arm and the base. The elastic reset element is used to generate elastic deformation when the handle body is pulled.

[0012] Furthermore, an anti-misoperation structure is further provided between the handle body and the base, and the anti-misoperation structure is used to keep the relative positions of the handle body and the base locked.

[0013] Furthermore, the anti-misoperation structure includes a first convex block located on the base and a second convex block located on the handle body. When the handle body is pulled, the second convex block moves together with the moving direction of the handle body. The first convex block is located on the moving path of the second convex block, and when a sufficient force is applied to the handle body, the second convex block can cross over the first convex block.

[0014] Furthermore, when the handle body is closed, the second convex block can cross over the first convex block and keep the relative positions of the handle body and the base locked.

[0015] Beneficial effects: By further providing a second cavity on the base that can be inserted by the user's finger portion on the basis of only providing the first cavity originally, when the user opens the car door, the hand can extend a sufficient distance to ensure that there is a sufficient hand-holding area between the hand and the handle to open the car door through the handle, especially facilitating the opening of the car door in an emergency. In addition, in order to avoid the second cavity, the present solution further optimizes the specific installation structure between the handle body and the base, and the layout is more reasonable.

[0022] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 shown, the emergency upward-turning handle that can provide sufficient hand-holding space includes: a base 1 for fixedly connecting with the vehicle body (door); a handle main body 2 rotatably connected with the base 1. A cavity one 200 for the user's finger to extend into is provided at the bottom of the handle main body 2. In an emergency, the user can unlock the door by pulling the handle main body 2 to turn it upward. A cavity two 100 is provided in the base 1. The cavity one 200 penetrates through the handle main body 2 and is communicated with the cavity two 100. The cavity two 100 allows the user's finger to pass through the cavity one 200 and then extend into the cavity two 100. On the basis of only having the cavity one 200 originally, by providing the cavity two 100 communicated with the cavity one 200, the extension distance can be doubled from 20 mm to 40 mm, so that enough hand-holding areas can be provided to apply force to pull open the door, thus facilitating the user to use in an emergency. At the same time, since the cavity one 200 is penetrated for communicating with the cavity two 100, in order to ensure the airtightness of the handle during normal use (non-emergency situation) and prevent gas from entering the gap between the handle main body 2 and the base 1 through the cavity one 200, combined with Figure 5 , when the handle main body 2 is not pulled (being pulled means that the handle main body 2 does not rotate relative to the base 1), a sealing ring 101 is provided between the handle main body 2 and the base 1. The sealing ring 101 is arranged around the bottom edge of the cavity two 100, and the sealing ring 101 can be provided on the base 1 by secondary injection molding.

[0023] The following introduces the specific connection relationship between the handle main body 2 and the base 1: Combined with Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 shown, the handle main body 2 further includes connecting arms 201 provided on both sides thereof. The connecting arms 201 are connected with the base through an installation structure. Preferably, the connecting arms 201 extend upward and are connected with the installation structure above the cavity two 100. The cavity two 100 is located between the connecting arms 201 on both sides. Such a setting can avoid the position where the newly added cavity two 100 is located.

[0024] More specifically, the installation structure may specifically include a pin shaft 3 and an elastic reset element 4. The connecting arm 201 is rotatably connected to the pin shaft 3, and an elastic reset element is provided between the connecting arm 201 and the base 1. The elastic reset element 4 is used to generate elastic deformation when the handle body 2 is pulled. Preferably, the elastic reset element 4 may be a torsion spring. One end of the torsion spring contacts the connecting arm 201, and the other end contacts the base 1. When the handle body 2 is pulled to drive the connecting arm 201 to rotate relative to the base, the torsion spring will undergo elastic deformation so that after the handle body 2 is released, the handle body 2 will be automatically reset by the elastic force.

[0025] Since this solution is applied to the emergency opening of a hidden door handle, generally the car door can be unlocked automatically by electricity. Only in an emergency is it necessary to pull the handle body 2 to unlock. To prevent accidental opening, combined with Figure 3 、 Figure 5 , this solution also has an anti-accidental opening structure A, which is provided between the handle body 2 and the base 1. The anti-accidental opening structure A is used to keep the relative positions of the handle body 2 and the base 1 locked.

[0026] Specifically, the anti-accidental opening structure A includes a first bump 102 located on the base 1 and a second bump 202 located on the handle body 2. The second bump 202 is preferably arranged at a position on the connecting arm 201 close to the base 1. When the handle body 2 is pulled, the second bump 202 moves together with the movement direction of the handle body 2. The first bump 102 is located on the movement path of the second bump 202 to block the second bump 202, thereby preventing the handle body 2 from being pulled. When a sufficient force is applied to the handle body 2, unlocking is achieved by relying on the elastic deformation generated by the second bump 202 made of, for example, plastic to cross over the first bump 102. In this way, the handle body 2 can be pulled to unlock the car door. Specifically, it can be achieved by making the direct contact surface between the two bumps be an inclined plane or by reducing the hardness at the connection between the second bump 202 and the connecting arm 201 to generate deformation.

[0027] In addition, when the handle body is closed, the second bump 202 can be deformed by force to cross over the first bump 201 and keep the relative positions of the handle body 2 and the base 1 locked, that is, to realize the reset of the second bump 202 and re-lock the relative positions of the handle body 2 and the base 1. Since at this time it is desirable to be able to reset the second bump 202 (that is, there is no need to prevent the second bump 202 from resetting), combined with Figure 6, preferably, when resetting, the second bump 202 contacts the first bump 102 through an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is relatively inclined. Specifically, taking the direction of rotation forward and upward when the handle main body 2 is pulled as the direction reference, the inclined surface a at the front end of the first bump 102 is inclined and extends from front to back towards the connecting arm 201, and the inclined surface b at the rear end of the second bump 202 is inclined and extends from front to back away from the base 1. In this way, when resetting, the inclined surfaces where the first bump 102 and the second bump 202 contact can cause the connection part of the second bump 202 to deform away from the base 1 and then bypass the first bump 102, thus facilitating the resetting.

[0028] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those familiar with the technology within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
