[0053] The self-priming mechanism disclosed by the utility model is mainly used in the field of self-priming locks, is located inside the self-priming lock, and is used to control the opening and closing of the self-priming lock.

[0054] Specifically, the self-priming mechanism disclosed in the utility model mainly includes a driving unit and a control unit; the control unit is mainly used to control the rotation of the lock hook 16 or the pawl 14 in the self-priming lock to realize the opening and closing control of the self-priming lock; and the setting of the driving unit is mainly used to drive the control unit to act, so as to facilitate the change of the working condition of the self-priming lock.

[0055] In addition, the driving unit described in the utility model includes a thrust nut 8; the thrust nut 8 is sleeved on the driving screw 9 of the driving assembly, and the position of the thrust nut 8 is subsequently changed by rotating the driving screw 9. At the same time, the utility model requires that the thrust nut 8 performs linear motion, so in actual use, it needs to be used in conjunction with the shell assembly. Through the limiting of the shell assembly, the thrust nut 8 cannot rotate with the driving screw 9. Based on such a setting, the rotational motion of the thrust nut 8 is converted into linear motion.

[0056] At the same time, in the utility model, the thrust nut 8 includes a nut body 81, which is the main structure of the thrust nut 8, and a nut push column 82 is provided on the nut body 81; the nut push column 82 is mainly used in conjunction with the locking lever 23 and the unlocking lever 19, and the locking and unlocking operations of the lock hook 16 are realized by pushing or driving the corresponding lever to perform corresponding actions.

The main difference between the utility model and the patent is the structure. In the utility model, the locking link 2-2 includes a locking lever 23; the locking lever 23 is used to push the lock hook 16, which is convenient for the rotation and locking of the lock hook 16 during subsequent use, and a pushing pin 22 is provided on the locking lever 23; the nut push column 82 is used in conjunction with the pushing pin 22; the setting of the pushing pin 22 forms a protrusion on the locking lever 23, and when used later, the nut push column 82 on the thrust nut 8 and the pushing pin 22 are used in conjunction with each other; based on such a setting, the contact area between the traditional drive unit and the locking lever 23 can be changed to reduce friction noise during operation.

[0058] Furthermore, in the utility model, the nut push column 82 and the pushing column pin 22 are arranged to intersect each other; based on such an arrangement, the utility model makes the nut push column 82 and the pushing column pin 22 form a point contact, and when the thrust nut 8 subsequently pushes the unlocking lever 19, the friction between the two is always a point contact, thereby reducing the contact noise, reducing the friction force, and making the transmission smoother and more stable.

[0059] At the same time, a lubricating layer is provided on the push pin 22 in the utility model, and the setting of the lubricating layer can better reduce the friction between the push pin 22 and the nut push pin 82, and reduce the contact noise. Of course, other coatings that can reduce the roughness of the outer surface of the push pin 22 are also feasible, and can be selected according to needs.

[0062] At the same time, it should be noted that the stacked arrangement of the first transmission component 101 and the second transmission component 102 of the utility model essentially tends to be stacked in the longitudinal space, and in the subsequent arrangement, the stacked connection can be achieved by the meshing of gears.

[0065] At the same time, in the utility model, the self-priming mechanism mainly plays a linkage role, which is convenient for the driving component to control the working condition of the lock body component during actual use.

[0066] Specifically, in the utility model, the self-priming mechanism also includes an unlocking lever 19; the unlocking lever 19 is used in conjunction with the pawl 14; the locking hook 16 is used in conjunction with the locking link 2-2 in the self-priming mechanism; the thrust nut 8 in the driving unit can drive the pawl 14 to rotate by controlling the unlocking lever 19; the thrust nut 8 in the driving unit can drive the locking hook 16 to rotate by controlling the locking link 2-2; based on the above design, the self-priming mechanism can change the position of the locking hook 16 under the drive and push of the thrust nut 8, and then realize the corresponding unlocking and locking operations.

[0067] Furthermore, the self-priming lock described in the present invention also includes an emergency unlocking mechanism; through the provision of the emergency unlocking mechanism, the emergency unlocking mechanism can be controlled to unlock the self-priming lock in an emergency to ensure the safety of members.

[0068] Specifically, the emergency unlocking mechanism disclosed in the present invention includes an emergency reset lever 28 and an emergency unlocking lever 27; the emergency reset lever 28 and the emergency unlocking lever 27 respectively control the corresponding locking lever 23 and unlocking lever 19, thereby realizing the corresponding unlocking operation.

[0070] Furthermore, in the present invention, the emergency reset lever 28 and the emergency unlocking lever 27 are connected through a linkage part; through the setting of the linkage part, the linkage of the movement of the emergency reset lever 28 and the emergency unlocking lever 27 can be achieved. There are various ways to set the linkage part, as long as the linkage movement of the emergency reset lever 28 and the emergency unlocking lever 27 can be achieved.

[0072] Furthermore, in the utility model, the shell assembly includes a transverse shell 1-1 and a longitudinal shell 1-2; the transverse shell 1-1 of the utility model is mainly used for the arrangement and placement of the lock body assembly, and the longitudinal shell 1-2 is mainly used for the installation and arrangement of the drive assembly. At the same time, in the utility model, the transverse shell 1-1 and the longitudinal shell 1-2 are arranged to intersect; here, the angle between the transverse shell 1-1 and the longitudinal shell 1-2 can be selected according to the actual working conditions, and it is generally required that the angle between the longitudinal shell 1-2 and the transverse shell 1-1 is an obtuse angle. Such a setting can reduce the overall height of the shell assembly and facilitate the arrangement in the tailgate during subsequent use.

[0073] At the same time, in the utility model, the transverse shell 1-1 includes a lock body shell 33, which serves as an external protection.

[0082] specific:

[0083] The utility model discloses a self-priming lock; the self-priming lock mainly comprises a shell component and a lock body assembly, the lock body assembly comprises a self-priming mechanism, a driving component and a lock body assembly; the driving component comprises a driving motor 1, and the driving motor 1 is connected to the lock body assembly through a transmission mechanism and the self-priming mechanism.

[0084] The transmission mechanism includes a primary worm 2 fixedly connected to the motor 1 and a primary large gear 4 meshing with the primary worm 2; includes a primary small gear 5 fixedly connected to the above-mentioned primary large gear 4, and a secondary gear 7 meshing with the primary small gear 5; also includes a screw 9 fixedly connected to the above-mentioned secondary gear 7 and a thrust nut 8 screwed therewith, and the thrust nut 8 is used to output thrust to the unlocking lever 19 and the locking lever 23 when unlocking and locking.

[0085] The lock body assembly disclosed in the utility model includes a ratchet 14, a lock hook 16, a ratchet switch 25, a lock hook switch 26, a reset switch 24, a connector copper sheet 32, a ratchet spring 15 applying elastic force to the ratchet 14 and a lock hook spring 15 applying elastic force to the lock hook 16, the ratchet 14 cooperates with an unlocking lever 19, the ratchet 14 and the ratchet spring 13 are sequentially mounted on the ratchet rivet 11, the ratchet rivet 11 is riveted on the bottom plate 36 of the housing assembly, the lock hook 16 and the lock hook spring 15 are sequentially mounted on the lock hook rivet 12, and the lock hook rivet 12 is riveted on the bottom plate 36. The ratchet switch 25, the lock hook switch 26, and the reset switch 24 are mounted on the actuator housing 31.

[0086] The actuator upper cover 37 is mounted on the actuator housing 31 and the bottom plate 36 by means of screws 38 . The actuator housing 31 is mounted in cooperation with the lock housing 35 by means of screws 38 , and is positioned and mounted on the bottom plate 36 by means of positioning pins.

[0087] The connector copper sheet 32 ​​is embedded in the actuator housing 31. Figure 1 .

[0088] When the drive assembly rotates forward, the thrust nut 8 pushes the unlocking lever 19 to rotate; the unlocking lever 19 pushes the pawl 14 to rotate, and the lock hook 16 is pushed to the unlocking position under the elastic force applied by the lock hook spring 15 and the body seal reaction force, realizing electric unlocking. After unlocking is completed, the drive assembly reverses and resets; see Figure 1 .

[0089] The driving assembly is reversed, the thrust nut 8 pushes the locking lever 23 to rotate, and drives the push pin 22 to push the lock hook 16 to rotate; the lock hook 16 overcomes the elastic force applied by the lock hook spring 15 and the body seal reaction force to rotate to the full lock position, realizing the electric self-priming lock. After the lock is completed, the driving assembly is reset in the forward direction; see Figure 1 .

The combined information is fed back to the controller in real time through the connector copper sheet 32.

[0091] The utility model adopts a deceleration scheme of worm-helical gear, spur gear-helical nut 8, with a large reduction ratio and a simple structure; a small power motor 1 can be selected for the same output force requirement, thereby reducing the volume, weight and cost of the motor 1.

[0092] At the same time, the pushing pin 22 on the locking lever 23 is in rolling point contact with the thrust nut 8. Specifically, when the thrust nut 8 outputs thrust, the cylindrical surface features of the thrust nut 8 are in contact with the cylindrical surface features of the pushing pin 22 on the locking lever 23, and the locking lever 23 rotates around its own axis. The contact point between the two is a rolling point contact.

[0093] This double cylindrical staggered structure design of rolling point contact can reduce contact noise, reduce friction, and make transmission smoother and more stable.

[0094] In addition, an emergency unlocking mechanism is provided on the shell assembly for realizing reset and unlocking linkage in an emergency situation; the emergency unlocking mechanism includes an emergency reset lever 28 and an emergency unlocking lever 27; the emergency reset lever 28 and the emergency unlocking lever 27 respectively control the corresponding locking lever 23 and the unlocking lever 19, thereby realizing the corresponding unlocking operation.

[0095] In an emergency, the emergency reset lever 28 can be toggled to push the locking lever 23 to rotate and disengage from the lock hook 16, thereby achieving a mechanical reset function.

[0096] At the same time, the emergency reset lever 28 is continuously moved, so that it continues to rotate and contacts the emergency unlocking lever 27 and exerts a force; the emergency unlocking lever 27 rotates and pushes the unlocking lever 19 to rotate, and the unlocking lever 19 pushes the pawl 14 to move, thereby disengaging the pawl 14 from the lock hook 16 to achieve unlocking, thereby ensuring the safety of the occupants in the car; see Figure 2 .

[0097] The connector copper sheet 32 ​​is injection molded in the actuator housing 31, and the connector 39 and the actuator housing 31 are injection molded as one, which reduces the number of parts and reduces the product cost; Figure 4 .

[0098] The lock body shell 35 of the utility model is embedded with soft rubber 34. When locked, the soft rubber contacts the lock buckle to buffer the impact of the lock buckle, which not only protects the shell but also reduces noise.

[0099] The utility model can achieve the following benefits:

[0100] The utility model uses a motor 1 and a set of transmission mechanisms to realize the electric unlocking and electric locking of the self-priming lock, and achieves the purposes of fewer parts, small size, light weight, simple structure and low cost.

[0101] The utility model adopts a worm-bevel gear, spur gear-helical nut 8 reduction scheme, with a large reduction ratio and a simple structure; a small power motor 1 can be selected for the same output force requirement, thereby reducing the volume, weight and cost of the motor 1.

[0102] The push pin 22 on the locking lever 23 and the thrust nut 8 are in rolling point contact. Specifically, when the thrust nut 8 outputs thrust, the cylindrical surface feature of the thrust nut 8 contacts the cylindrical surface feature of the push pin 22 on the locking lever 23. The locking lever 23 rotates around its own axis, and the contact point between the two is rolling point contact. This double cylindrical surface staggered structure design of rolling point contact can reduce contact noise, reduce friction, and make transmission smoother and more stable.

[0103] At the same time, an emergency unlocking mechanism is provided on the housing assembly for realizing reset and unlocking linkage in an emergency situation; the emergency unlocking mechanism includes an emergency reset lever 28 and an emergency unlocking lever 27; the emergency reset lever 28 and the emergency unlocking lever 27 respectively control the corresponding locking lever 23 and the unlocking lever 19, thereby disengaging the pawl 14 from the lock hook 16 to realize unlocking, thereby ensuring the safety of the occupants in the car.

[0104] The utility model lock body shell 35 is embedded with soft rubber 34, and when locked, the soft rubber contacts the lock buckle to buffer the impact of the lock buckle, which not only protects the shell, but also reduces noise; Figure 2 .

[0105] Attached Figure 6-9 shown.

[0106] The electric locking process of the self-priming lock disclosed in the utility model is as follows: when the self-priming lock reaches the semi-locked state, the system detects the switch signal, the ECU sends a locking signal, the motor 1 starts to work, the transmission mechanism transmits the power to the nut 8, and the nut 8 moves along the axial direction of the driving screw 9. From the attached figure, it moves along the positive direction of the X axis, and the nut push column 82 pushes the column pin 22 to make the locking link 2-2 start to move. Here, the four-bar linkage is the above-mentioned locking link 2-2; in the locking link 2 -2 A slot 201 is provided near one end of the lock hook 16, and a lock hook flange 16.1 is provided on the lock hook 16; when in use, the slot 201 abuts against the lock hook flange 16.1, pushing the lock hook 16 to rotate in a clockwise direction to reach the fully locked position, the pawl 14 is provided with a locking flange 14.1, and the lock hook 16 is provided with a locking groove 16.2; the locking flange 14.1 on the pawl 14 abuts against the locking groove 16.2, so that the lock hook 16 reaches a stable state, and the electric locking process is completed.

[0107] The electric unlocking process is as follows: the ECU sends an unlocking signal, the motor 1 starts working, the transmission mechanism transmits power to the thrust nut 8, the thrust nut 8 moves along the negative direction of the X-axis, pushing the unlocking lever 19 to rotate clockwise, and the unlocking lever 19 pushes the pawl 14 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the locking flange 14.1 and the locking groove 16.2 are disengaged, and the lock hook 16 is opened under the action of the torsion spring.

[0108] When the nut 8 is in the initial position, the emergency unlocking process is as follows: manually pull the finger pad 28.1 on the emergency reset lever 28, the emergency reset lever 28 rotates around the emergency reset lever pin hole 28.2, the emergency reset lever 28 presses on the pin shaft of the emergency unlocking lever 27, so that the emergency unlocking lever 27 rotates around the emergency unlocking lever pin hole 27.2, and the emergency unlocking lever push head 27.3 pushes the pawl 14 to rotate to achieve emergency unlocking.

[0109] When the power is cut off in an emergency, the emergency unlocking process is as follows: manually pull the finger pad 28.1 on the emergency reset lever 28, the emergency reset lever 28 rotates around the emergency reset lever pin hole 28.2, and the emergency reset lever push head 28.3 pushes the locking link 2-2 to disengage the slot 201 and the lock hook flange 16.1 to achieve emergency reset. At the same time, the emergency reset lever 28 presses on the emergency unlock lever pin shaft, so that the emergency unlock lever 27 rotates around the emergency unlock lever pin hole 27.2, and the emergency unlock lever push head 27.3 pushes the pawl 14 to rotate to achieve emergency unlocking.

[0110] In particular, emergency reset and emergency unlocking can be completed simultaneously by only pulling the emergency reset lever 28; the operation is simple and misoperation caused by complicated operation process can be avoided.

[0111] Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited by the above-mentioned methods. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
