Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile cables, in particular to a switching structure of a hood lock cable, a hood lock cable assembly and a vehicle. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, automobile hood opening can be divided into two methods: manual and electric. Due to production cost and hood opening and closing frequency considerations, manual opening is still the mainstream method in most models. The principle of the manual opening method is that a hood lock cable structure connects a handle in the cab to the hood lock, allowing the driver to open the hood from the cab using the handle. In actual production and use, damage to the hood lock cable structure is inevitable. For example, when the hood lock cable structure is installed on the vehicle body in the workshop, some of the connecting parts may break, requiring the entire cable to be replaced, resulting in increased production costs. After a period of use, the cable may break at some joints, requiring the entire cable to be replaced, resulting in increased after-sales costs. The A+B length of the hood lock cable directly affects the unlocking and locking functions of the hood. Due to certain errors in cable assembly precision, the A+B length of the cable may be too long or too short, affecting the normal unlocking and locking functions. The cable A+B length needs to be repeatedly adjusted, resulting in low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.
[0031] This specification may use the phrases "in one embodiment," "in another embodiment," "in yet another embodiment," or "in other embodiments," all of which may refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to the present invention.
[0032] The utility model provides a transition structure of a hood lock cable, wherein the hood lock cable includes a first cable segment 100 close to the buckle and a second cable segment 200 close to the hood lock. The transition structure includes an adapter box 1 and an adjusting pipe joint 2. The adjusting pipe joint 2 is connected to the first cable segment 100, and the adjusting pipe joint 2 is threadedly connected to the adapter box 1. Both the first cable segment 100 and the second cable segment 200 can be detachably connected to the adapter box 1.
[0033] Combine Figure 1The figure shows a portion of the hood lock cable assembly, with the directions of the handle and hood lock indicated to facilitate understanding of directional terms such as "near the hood lock" and "near the handle" described later. Furthermore, the "core wire pulling direction" referred to later in this document refers to the direction of movement of the core wire when unlocking or locking the hood lock. Because the cable paths vary across different vehicle models, the specific direction of movement of the core wire should be determined based on the actual cable layout.
[0034] Combine Figure 2 As shown in the figure, a hood lock cable assembly consisting of an adapter structure and a hood lock cable is shown, wherein the hood lock cable adopts a segmented structure of at least two sections, such as a first cable segment 100 and a second cable segment 200, and the first cable segment 100 and the second cable segment 200 are detachably connected through the adapter structure. Compared with the whole cable structure in the traditional technology, the hood lock cable in the utility model can only disassemble and replace the first cable segment 100 or the second cable segment 200; in this embodiment, the adapter structure is composed of an adapter box 1 and an adjusting pipe joint 2, and the adapter box 1 can be matched with the threaded connection on the adjusting pipe joint 2 by opening a threaded through hole, and the end of the first cable segment 100 close to the hood lock can be detachably connected to the adapter box 1 by bolts, plugging, etc., and the end of the second cable segment 200 close to the buckle can be detachably connected to the adapter box 1 by bolts, plugging, etc.
[0035] The adapter structure in the present invention can divide the hood lock cable into two sections, namely the first cable section 100 and the second cable section 200. The first cable section 100 and the second cable section 200 can both be detachably connected to the adapter box 1. Compared with the traditional technology of a whole cable structure, the adapter structure of the present invention can realize the segmented disassembly function of the cable structure. If the cable is damaged in the production workshop or during after-sales use, only the damaged cable section (i.e., one of the first cable section 100 and the second cable section 200) can be disassembled, avoiding the problem of increased production cost and increased after-sales cost caused by disassembly of the entire cable; and the first cable section 100 is connected to the adjusting pipe joint 2, and the adjusting pipe joint 2 is threadedly connected to the adapter box 1. If the A+B length of the cable does not meet the requirements when assembling the hood lock cable, the first cable section 100 can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the adjusting pipe joint 2, thereby adjusting the cable A+B length to ensure that the unlocking and locking functions of the hood lock can be used normally, avoiding repeated adjustment of the cable A+B length, and thus improving vehicle production efficiency.
[0036] Furthermore, the adapter box 1 is provided with a first through hole 111 and a second through hole 112. The end of the adjusting pipe joint 2 close to the hood lock is threadedly connected to the first through hole 111. The end of the adjusting pipe joint 2 close to the buckle is provided with a twisting portion 21 to withstand external force. The second protective tube 201 of the second cable segment 200 is fixedly connected to the second through hole 112. Figure 2 As shown, the adjusting pipe joint 2 is a cylindrical tubular structure as a whole. The first protective tube 101 of the first cable segment 100 is connected to the tube cavity of the adjusting pipe joint 2 and can move together with the adjusting pipe joint 2. The end of the adjusting pipe joint 2 close to the hood lock is provided with an external thread for threaded connection with the first through hole 111, and the end close to the buckle is provided with a twisting portion 21. In this embodiment, the twisting portion 21 is a pentagonal prism structure. The shape of the twisting portion 21 can be designed according to actual needs, such as a cylindrical structure with knurling on the surface, a protruding structure provided on the outer periphery of the adjusting pipe joint 2, etc. As long as it can easily withstand external force and the adjusting pipe joint 2 is subjected to torque and rotates relative to the adapter box 1, no specific limitation is made here.
[0037] In this way, through the design of the first through hole 111 and the second through hole 112, the overall space occupied by the adapter structure is reduced, and the screwing part 21 is located outside the adapter box 1, which is convenient for bearing external force, thereby driving the first cable segment 100 to adjust the A+B length by adjusting the rotation of the pipe joint 2.
[0038] Furthermore, the adapter box 1 includes an adapter 12 and a box body 11, the adapter 12 is movably arranged in the box body 11, the first core wire 102 of the first cable segment 100 is detachably connected to the adapter 12 near the hood lock end, and the second core wire 202 of the second cable segment 200 is detachably connected to the adapter 12 near the buckle end.
[0039] Combine Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the adapter 12 can be directly placed in the box body 11, and the adjusting pipe joint 2 and the first protective tube 101 are fixed together by means such as welding, bonding, or clamping. The second protective tube 201 is fixed in the second through hole 112 by means such as welding, bonding, or clamping. The first core wire 102, which is close to the hood lock, passes through the first through hole 111 and is detachably connected to the adapter 12 by means such as plugging or clamping. The second core wire 202, which is close to the handle, passes through the second through hole 112 and is detachably connected to the adapter 12 by means such as plugging or clamping. During normal use of the hood lock cable, the user pulls the handle in the cab, causing the first core wire 102 to pull the second core wire 202 through the adapter 12, ultimately transmitting the pulling force to the hood lock, thereby unlocking the hood lock. The first core wire 102 and the second core wire 202 can be driven by elastic members such as springs and torsion springs to reset the hood lock, thereby closing the hood lock.
[0040] In this way, the first core wire 102 and the second core wire 202 are detachably connected through the adapter 12. On the one hand, the function of transmitting tension when the first core wire 102 and the second core wire 202 are connected is realized, thereby realizing the normal unlocking and closing of the hood lock. On the other hand, the disassembly between the first core wire 102 and the second core wire 202 is realized, thereby realizing the disassembly between the first cable segment 100 and the second cable segment 200, that is, the segmented disassembly function of the cable structure is realized.
[0041] Optionally, the adapter box 1 further includes a box cover 13 , the first through hole 111 is opened on the box body 11 , the box cover 13 is connected to the box body 11 , and the box cover 13 and the box body 11 enclose the second through hole 112 .
[0042] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the box body 11 is a generally rectangular box-shaped container, and the box cover 13 can be connected to the box body 11 by means of snap connection, bolt connection, etc. The first through hole 111 is a circular hole with an internal thread, which is opened on the box body 11, and the second through hole 112 is formed by the box cover 13 and the box body 11 being assembled together.
[0043] In this way, a relatively closed container can be formed by the box body 11 and the box cover 13 to accommodate the end of the first core wire 102 close to the hood lock and the end of the second core wire 202 close to the buckle, so as to provide dustproof and waterproof protection.
[0044] Furthermore, a protective tube joint 3 is included, and the second protective tube 201 is clamped in the second through hole 112 through the protective tube joint 3 .
[0045] Combine Figure 2 As shown, the protective tube connector 3 is generally cylindrical and tubular. It is secured to the second protective tube 201 by welding, bonding, or snapping, for example. The end of the protective tube connector 3 has a T-shaped cross-section. During assembly, the end of the protective tube connector 3 is first placed within the box body 11. The box cover 13 is then attached to the box body 11, forming a complete second through hole 112 with the box cover 13. The protective tube connector 3 is snapped into the second through hole 112.
[0046] In this way, the second protective tube 201 is snapped into the second through hole 112 through the protective tube connector 3 , and the protective tube connector 3 can protect the second cable segment 200 .
[0047] Furthermore, a limiting groove 113 along the core wire pulling direction is provided on the inner wall of the box body 11 , and a limiting protrusion 121 is provided on the adapter 12 , and the limiting protrusion 121 is slidably disposed in the limiting groove 113 .
[0048] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a limiting groove 113 is provided on the inner wall of the box body 11, and a limiting protrusion 121 is provided on the adapter 12. The limiting groove 113 is arranged along the pulling direction of the core wire, so that when the first core wire 102 and the second core wire 202 are pulled, the limiting protrusion 121 slides in the limiting groove 113. In this embodiment, combined with Figure 2 As shown, the core wire pulling direction is consistent with the length direction of the rectangular adapter box 1 , and the limiting groove 113 can limit the shaking of the limiting protrusion 121 in the width direction and height direction of the adapter box 1 .
[0049] In this way, the sliding fit between the limiting groove 113 and the limiting protrusion 121 plays a guiding and limiting role for the adapter 12, thereby preventing the adapter 12 from shaking and making abnormal noises.
[0050] Furthermore, a buckle 114 is provided on the outer wall of the box body 11 for being fixed to the vehicle body.
[0051] Combine Figure 4 As shown, a buckle 114 is provided on the outer wall of the box body 11, and a corresponding position on the vehicle body can be provided with a slot to engage with the buckle 114 to fix the adapter box 1 on the vehicle body.

One end of the second wire groove 124 is connected to the first wire groove 123 and the first mating slot 122, and the other end of the second wire groove 124 extends along the core wire pulling direction, so that when the first mating plug-in 1021 is inserted into the first mating slot 122, the first core wire 102 moves into the first wire groove 123 and then swings to the second wire groove 124.
[0054] Combine Figure 3 As shown, a first mating plug-in 1021 is provided at one end of the first core wire 102 close to the hood lock. The first mating plug-in 1021 can be in the shape of a ball head, a cylindrical head, etc., and its shape is plugged and matched with the first mating slot 122.

In this embodiment, the preset angle is 90°, that is, the other end of the third wire groove 126 extends toward one side in the width direction of the adapter 12. The fourth wire groove 127 is connected to the third wire groove 126 at one end along the extension direction shown in the figure, and the other end extends along the core wire pulling direction until it forms an opening on the outer surface of the adapter 12. When installing the second core wire 202 on the adapter 12, the second mating plug 2021 is first inserted into the second mating slot 125, and the second core wire 202 is then moved into the third wire groove 126 until the second core wire 202 and the fourth wire groove 127 correspond to each other, and the second core wire 202 is swung into the fourth wire groove 127.
