[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] It should be understood that although terms such as upper, middle, lower, top, one end, etc. appear in this article to describe various elements, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish elements from each other for easy understanding, rather than for defining any directional or sequential limitations.

[0028] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, an inner handle for pressing electronic unlocking to activate mechanical unlocking includes a base 1, an unlocking handle 2 rotatably provided in the base 1, a mechanical unlocking portion 3 for performing mechanical unlocking, and an electronic unlocking portion 4 for performing electronic unlocking.

[0029] Specifically, the unlocking handle 2 is connected to the mechanical unlocking portion 3. When the unlocking handle 2 rotates in the first direction, the unlocking handle 2 pulls the mechanical unlocking portion 3 to unlock. When the unlocking handle 2 rotates in the second direction, the unlocking handle 2 abuts against the electronic unlocking portion 4 and performs electronic unlocking.

[0030] By providing a mechanical unlocking portion 3 for performing mechanical unlocking and an electronic unlocking portion 4 for performing electronic unlocking in the base 1, and connecting the unlocking handle 2 to the mechanical unlocking portion 3, when the unlocking handle 2 is pulled outwards, the unlocking handle 2 pulls the mechanical unlocking portion 3 to unlock. When the unlocking handle 2 is pressed inwards, the unlocking handle 2 abuts against the electronic unlocking portion 4 and performs electronic unlocking, thus realizing both electronic unlocking and mechanical unlocking methods at the same time, which not only improves the convenience during the user's use process, but also ensures the safety during the user's use process.

[0031] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, for a further explanation of the implementation manner of the electronic unlocking portion 4 in this embodiment, wherein, the electronic unlocking portion 4 includes a housing 101 provided in the base 1, an electronic unlocking component 102 provided in the housing 101, a button 103 slidably provided in the housing 101, and a conductive rubber 104 provided between the button 103 and the electronic unlocking component 102. The button 103 presses the conductive rubber 104 so that the conductive rubber 104 abuts against the electronic unlocking component 102 and performs electronic unlocking.

[0032] Further, the electronic unlocking assembly 102 includes a PCB board and a pin assembly. Conductive particles are provided inside the conductive rubber 104. When electronic unlocking is required, the unlocking handle 2 can be pressed inward, causing the unlocking handle 2 to squeeze the button 103. Under the action of the unlocking handle 2, the button 103 squeezes the conductive rubber 104, causing the conductive particles inside the conductive rubber 104 to contact the conductive particles on the PCB board, connecting the PCB board circuit joints, and outputting a signal to the vehicle computer by the pin assembly, thereby performing electronic unlocking.

[0033] Specifically, an unlocking convex portion 201 for electronic unlocking and a blocking convex portion 202 for blocking the button 103 from approaching the unlocking convex portion 201 are formed on the conductive rubber 104, and the height of the blocking convex portion 202 is greater than that of the unlocking convex portion 201.

[0034] Since the conductive particles are provided inside the unlocking convex portion 201, before the button 103 contacts the unlocking convex portion 201, it needs to first contact the blocking convex portion 202. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously overcome the resistance of the blocking convex portion 202 and continuously travel a certain distance before the button 103 can contact the unlocking convex portion 201 for unlocking, thereby avoiding the situation where the unlocking handle 2 is accidentally touched by a passenger, the unlocking handle 2 rebounds after mechanical unlocking is opened, or the door is impacted to generate acceleration, causing the unlocking handle 2 to press the button 103 and resulting in accidental triggering of electronic unlocking to open the door.

[0035] Preferably, the unlocking convex portion 201 is centrally arranged on the conductive rubber 104, and the blocking convex portions 202 are spaced apart and distributed on the outer periphery of the unlocking convex portion 201, improving the stability during the process of the button 103 squeezing the conductive rubber 104.

[0036] In addition, a limiting convex portion 105 is formed inside the housing 101, and a limiting groove 106 is formed inside the button 103. The limiting convex portion 105 is placed in the limiting groove 106. The limiting groove 106 can guide the limiting convex portion 105 to ensure the stability of the button 103 during sliding. In addition, the moving stroke of the button 103 is limited to avoid damage to the electronic unlocking assembly 102 caused by excessive squeezing of the button 103.

[0037] As shown in Figures 1 - 6 Regarding the further explanation of the implementation manner of the base 1 in this embodiment, a limiting edge 203 for restricting the unlocking handle 2 from rotating in the first direction is provided inside the base 1. The limiting edge 203 can limit the stroke of the unlocking handle 2 to avoid excessive inward rotation of the unlocking handle 2 and damage to the electronic unlocking part 4.

[0038] Further, an installation groove 204 is formed between the limit edges 203, and the electronic unlocking part 4 is arranged in the installation groove 204 and partially extends out of the installation groove 204. When the unlocking handle 2 presses the extended part of the electronic unlocking part 4 into the installation groove 204, electronic unlocking is performed, and the installation groove 204 can improve the installation stability of the electronic unlocking part 4.

[0039] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, for a further explanation of the cooperation between the base 1 and the unlocking handle 2 in this embodiment, a receiving groove 205 is formed on the base 1, a rotating shaft 206 is arranged in the receiving groove 205, the unlocking handle 2 is rotatably arranged on the rotating shaft 206, and an elastic element 207 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 206. One end of the elastic element abuts against the base 1, and the other end abuts against the unlocking handle 2, so that the unlocking handle 2 is retracted in the receiving groove 205.

[0040] The unlocking handle 2 can be pulled outwards for mechanical unlocking, or the unlocking handle 2 can be pressed inwards for electronic unlocking. After mechanical unlocking, the unlocking handle 2 will rebound and reset under the action of the elastic element 207, improving the convenience during the use of the unlocking handle 2.

[0041] Preferably, a shock pad 302 is arranged in the base 1. When one end of the unlocking handle 2 retracts into the base 1, the other end of the unlocking handle 2 abuts against the shock pad 302, reducing the impact force of the unlocking handle 2 rebounding during mechanical unlocking and preventing the base 1 from vibrating and accidentally triggering electronic unlocking to open the door.

[0042] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, for a further explanation of the cooperation between the mechanical unlocking part 3 and the unlocking handle 2, the mechanical unlocking part 3 includes an unlocking pull rope 301. The unlocking pull rope 301 is connected to the unlocking handle 2, and one end of the unlocking pull rope 301 swings outwards. When the other end of the unlocking pull rope 301 is pulled to perform mechanical unlocking, when mechanical unlocking is required, the unlocking handle 2 can be pulled outwards. As the unlocking handle 2 rotates, the unlocking handle 2 will pull the unlocking pull rope 301 to perform mechanical unlocking.

[0043] This specific embodiment is only an explanation of the present invention, and it is not a limitation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without creative contributions according to needs after reading this specification, but as long as it is within the scope of the claims of the present invention, it is protected by the patent law.
