[0033] The electric unlocking push rod 10 is installed on the lock block bracket 1, and one end of the electric unlocking push rod 10 is movably connected to the lock block bracket through a pin shaft;

[0034] The electric unlocking lever shaft 9 is installed on the toothed member 4, and the toothed member 4 drives the electric unlocking push rod 10 to rotate through the electric unlocking lever shaft 9;

[0035] A pawl lever 16 is provided on one side of the pawl 17. The pawl lever 16 and the pawl 17 are mounted on a pawl shaft 18. The pawl lever 16 and the pawl 17 rotate around the pawl shaft 18. A portion of the pawl lever 16 is embedded in the pawl 17. The pawl lever 16 pushes the pawl 17 to rotate. The manual unlock lever 12 pushes the pawl lever 16 to rotate.

[0036] The ratchet 20 is installed on the lock body 15 and the base plate 14 through a ratchet shaft 21 . The ratchet 20 rotates around the ratchet shaft 21 . A ratchet contact portion 23 is provided on the ratchet 20 . The self-priming rocker arm 6 pushes the ratchet 20 to rotate through the ratchet contact portion 23 .

[0037] Furthermore, the outer opening rocker arm 11 and the manual unlocking lever 12 are mounted on the lock block bracket 1 via the unlocking lever shaft 13 , and the outer opening rocker arm 11 and the manual unlocking lever 12 rotate around the unlocking lever shaft 13 .

[0043] Furthermore, a pull wire connection portion 25 is provided at one end of the manual unlocking lever.

[0044] When the utility model is used, the door lock is installed through the bottom plate and the lock block bracket; during the use process; when the self-priming operation is performed, when the ratchet rotates clockwise into the primary lock position (such as Figure 3As shown), at this time, the ratchet signal switch triggers the primary lock signal, and the pawl signal switch signal jumps. When the controller (on-board facility, not shown) receives the primary lock signal and the pawl jump signal, the motor drives the gear to rotate through the gear transmission mechanism. The gear drives the self-priming rocker arm to move. The self-priming rocker arm pushes the ratchet to lock into the secondary lock through the ratchet contact part. At this time, the secondary lock signal is triggered and the self-priming stops; when the motor reverses, the gear triggers the reset signal switch signal, the motor stops rotating, and the self-priming ends.

[0045] When performing the manual unlocking operation: pulling the handlebar, the pull wire (at the pull wire connection part) drives the manual unlocking lever to rotate around the manual unlocking lever axis, the manual lever contacts the pawl lever, causing the pawl lever to rotate around the pawl axis, and the other end of the pawl lever drives the pawl to rotate and disengage from the ratchet wheel, and the ratchet wheel rotates to the unlocking position under the action of its own reset torsion spring. After releasing the hand, the pawl resets under the action of its own reset torsion spring, and manual unlocking is completed.

[0046] When electric unlocking is performed: pressing the unlock switch on the vehicle door triggers the unlock signal, and the signal is transmitted to the controller (on-board equipment). The controller controls the motor to rotate, driving the gear to rotate. The electric unlocking lever shaft on the gear will push the electric unlocking push rod. The pull wire on the electric unlocking push rod will pass through the conversion mechanism (door lock supporting mechanism, not shown) to pull the unlocking pull wire to move. The unlocking pull wire drives the manual unlocking lever to rotate. The manual unlocking lever contacts the pawl lever, and the other end of the pawl lever drives the pawl to rotate, so that the pawl is disengaged from the ratchet. The ratchet rotates to the unlocking position under the action of its own reset torsion spring. When the hand is released, the pawl resets under the action of its own reset torsion spring. At this time, the controller receives the pawl jump signal and the pawl signal switch signal, and controls the motor to reverse. When the controller receives the reset signal switch signal, the motor stops rotating and the electric unlocking ends.

[0047] The door lock of the utility model can be used on doors of vehicles of different models.

[0048] The above are only specific implementations of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope defined in the claims.
