[0019] AsFigures 1-8 As shown in the utility model discloses an automobile engine hood lock opening and closing lock mechanism, including the bottom plate 1, the bottom plate 1 is rotationally arranged with first rotation axis 2, second rotation axis 3, third rotation axis 4 and fourth rotation axis 5, the fourth rotation axis 5 is connected with the bottom plate 1 between torsion spring, the first rotation axis 2 is fixedly provided with the opening rocker arm 6 and the pawl 7 on, the second rotation axis 3 is fixedly provided with the ratchet wheel 8 on, the ratchet wheel 8 is equipped with the first ratchet part 81 and the second ratchet part 82 with the pawl 7 cooperation, the first ratchet part 81 and the second ratchet part 82 between the lock bolt 9 of clamping, the bottom plate 1 is set up and is locked opening 101, the lock bolt 9 can slide to the locked opening 101, the third rotation axis 4 is fixedly provided with the transmission sector gear 10 on, the transmission sector gear 10 counterclockwise rotation when drive opening rocker arm 6 rotates clockwise, the fourth rotation axis 5 is fixedly provided with the self-suction sector gear 11 on, the self-suction sector gear 11 with transmission sector gear 10 engagement, the self-suction sector gear 11 is rotationally connected with the clutch arm 13 through the fifth rotation axis 12, the fourth rotation axis 5 is rotationally arranged with the self-suction rocker arm 14, the self-suction rocker arm 14 one end is fixedly connected with the self-suction rocker arm rivet shaft 15, the clutch arm 13 one end is equipped with the hook portion 131 with the self-suction rocker arm rivet shaft 15 match, the opening rocker arm 6 one end is fixedly connected with the opening rocker arm rivet shaft 16, the opening rocker arm rivet shaft 16 rotates around the first rotation axis 2 when drive clutch arm 13 rotates clockwise around the fifth rotation axis 12, the ratchet wheel rivet shaft 17 of the ratchet wheel 8 one end is fixedly connected, the ratchet wheel rivet shaft 17 with self-suction rocker arm 14 abutment.

[0020] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:

[0021] Locking principle: Figure 1 For the cover lock into the lock state, when transmission sector gear 10 rotates counterclockwise around the third rotation axis 4, transmission sector gear 10 drive opening rocker arm 6 rotates clockwise around the first rotation axis 2, drive pawl 7 rotates clockwise around the first rotation axis 2 to reach as Figure 2 The position shown, pawl 7 and ratchet wheel 8 are separated, and ratchet wheel 8 rotates counterclockwise around the second rotation axis 3 under the action of torsion spring, drive lock bolt 9 to pop out locked opening 101, reach as Figure 3 The position shown, complete unlocking.

[0022] Half-lock self-suction principle: Figure 4 For the cover lock into the half-lock state, when transmission sector gear 10 rotates clockwise around the third rotation axis 4, transmission sector gear 10 drive self-suction sector gear 11 rotates counterclockwise around the fourth rotation axis 5, self-suction sector gear 11 drive clutch arm 13 move together, clutch arm 13 drive self-suction rocker arm rivet shaft 15 rotates counterclockwise around the fourth rotation axis 5 through hook portion 131, drive self-suction rocker arm 14 rotates counterclockwise around the fourth rotation axis 5, as Figure 5As shown, the self-priming rocker arm 14 drives the ratchet 8 to rotate clockwise around the second pivot 3 via the ratchet rivet pin 17. The ratchet 8, carrying the locking bolt 9, moves to the locking opening 101 until... Figure 6 Locking is completed at the indicated position.

[0023] Clutch principle: Figure 6 When the hood lock has just entered the locked state, the transmission mechanism has not yet reset. When the door is powered off, the transmission mechanism cannot return to its original position. At this time, the opening rocker arm 6 rotates clockwise around the first rotating shaft 2. The opening rocker arm 6 drives the clutch arm 13 to rotate clockwise around the fifth rotating shaft 12 via the opening rocker arm rivet shaft 16. Figure 7 As shown, the hook portion 131 of the clutch arm 13 disengages from the self-priming rocker arm rivet shaft 15, at which point the lock can be unlocked, ultimately as shown. Figure 8 As shown.

[0024] This utility model achieves multiple functions. Unlocking function: When the transmission sector gear 10 rotates counterclockwise, it drives the opening rocker arm 6 to rotate clockwise, causing the pawl 7 to separate from the ratchet 8. Under the action of the torsion spring, the ratchet 8 rotates, causing the bolt 9 to pop out of the locking opening 101, completing the unlocking process. The unlocking process is stable and reliable. Semi-lock self-locking function: When the transmission sector gear 10 rotates clockwise, it drives the self-locking sector gear 11 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby driving the self-locking rocker arm 14 to rotate. This causes the ratchet 8 to move the bolt 9 to the locking opening 101 to complete the locking, ensuring that the hood can automatically be locked in a semi-locked state, improving the reliability and stability of the hood lock. Clutch function: When the door is powered off and the transmission mechanism cannot return to its original position, the clockwise rotation of the opening rocker arm 6 drives the clutch arm 13 to rotate, causing the clutch arm 13 to disengage from the self-locking rocker arm 14, thus unlocking the lock. This ensures that the hood lock can still be unlocked normally under special circumstances, improving the fault tolerance and safety of the mechanism.

[0025] In summary, the hood lock opening and closing mechanism of this utility model has the advantages of convenient hood opening and closing, multiple functions, stability and reliability, and high safety performance, which can meet people's requirements for automobile safety performance and ease of use.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
