Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] The technical problem this utility model aims to solve is to provide an internal unlocking handle for automobiles. By integrating a micro switch (electronic lock control) and a zipper mechanism (mechanical lock control) onto the same operating handle, it significantly reduces costs. It achieves coordinated operation of electronic and mechanical dual unlocking modes, greatly improving safety performance. Even if the electronic system fails, the mechanical lock can still work normally, enhancing user convenience and system reliability. By controlling the movement speed of the operating handle through a damper, it avoids noise caused by rapid rebound or impact, improving the operating feel and component lifespan. It provides both dual safety protection and an improved user experience.
[0006] (II) Technical Solution
[0007] The solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problem is an inward-opening latch for automobiles, including...
[0008] Base;
[0009] An operating handle is rotatably connected to the base;
[0010] A micro switch, fixed on the base, is used to control the opening and closing of the electronic lock, and the micro switch can be triggered when the operating handle is rotated;
[0011] A zipper mechanism is connected to the operating handle and is used to control the opening and closing of the mechanical lock. When the operating handle is rotated, it can drive the zipper mechanism to move to unlock the mechanical lock.
[0012] A damper, which is disposed on the movement path of the operating handle, is capable of controlling the movement speed of the operating handle.
[0013] In some embodiments, the pull-lock mechanism includes a pull cable, one end of which is connected to the operating handle and the other end to a mechanical lock; so that the mechanical lock can be unlocked when the operating handle is rotated to 40°; the pull cable is fixed to the operating handle by a fixing block, the fixing block including a fixing head for fixing the pull cable, the fixing head including two elastic locking parts, the operating handle including a mounting hole for adapting to the elastic locking parts, the elastic locking parts including a groove that can engage with the wall of the mounting hole, so as to realize the fixed installation of the pull cable on the operating handle.

[0016] In some embodiments, the second gear part is a circular gear structure, and the first gear part is an arc-shaped gear structure; through the combined design of the arc-shaped gear structure (first gear part) and the circular gear structure (second gear part), the rotation path of the operating handle is adapted to ensure that the damping effect is effective throughout the entire process.
[0017] By adopting the above scheme, the resistance of the damper is evenly transmitted to the operating handle through the meshing of the first gear and the second gear, thereby achieving more precise speed control.
[0018] In some embodiments, the damper is fixed to the base, and the end of the damper facing the operating handle is provided with the second gear portion.
[0019] With the above solution, the damper is fixed to the base, and the second gear directly meshes with the operating handle, simplifying the assembly process and improving structural stability; the damper is arranged towards the operating handle, saving internal space and making it suitable for compact automotive interior layouts.

[0025] The above solution provides stable rotational support for the rotating shaft, ensuring smooth rotation of the operating handle; the reset component provides automatic springback force to ensure the operating handle resets, preventing mechanical lock malfunctions caused by users forgetting to reset; the rotating base integrates multiple functions: rotational connection, pull wire fixing, and micro switch triggering, with a reasonable structure and clear functions; the bottom of the first receiving slot has a through-hole design to avoid rotational interference and ensure smooth rotation of the operating handle.
[0026] In some embodiments, the reset member includes an elastic member, one end of which abuts against the base and the other end against the operating handle, so that the elastic member can give the operating handle a tendency to rotate in the reset direction.

[0037] Specifically, after the operating handle is rotated 7°, the trigger wall rotates 3.5mm, that is, the chord length between the initial position and the rotated position of the trigger wall is 3.5mm; after the operating handle is rotated 40°, the pull line moves 12mm, that is, the distance between the initial position and the moved position of the pull line is 12mm.
[0038] Using the above scheme, the micro switch is triggered when the operating handle is rotated 7°, which is sensitive and avoids misoperation; the mechanical lock is unlocked when the operating handle is rotated 40°, ensuring sufficient operating stroke; the electronic lock is triggered first (7°) and then the mechanical lock is unlocked (40°), ensuring that the electronic lock is activated first and improving the user experience.
[0039] In some embodiments, one of the operating handle and the base is elastically connected by a tick pin; the other of the operating handle and the base is provided with a recess that can cooperate with the tick pin; and when the operating handle is rotated to trigger the micro switch, the tick pin is precisely positioned in the recess.

Using the above solution, the resistance of the damper 500 is evenly transmitted to the operating handle 200 through the meshing of the first gear portion 201 and the second gear portion 501, achieving more precise speed control. In some embodiments, the damper 500 is fixed to the base 100, and the second gear portion 501 is provided at one end of the damper 500 facing the operating handle 200.

In some embodiments, a first engaging groove 205 for engaging one end of the elastic member 700 is provided at the connection between the rotating seat 203 and the handle 204; a second engaging groove 104 for engaging the other end of the elastic member 700 is provided at the end of the base 100 located on the rotating seat 203 away from the handle 204. Using the above scheme, the elastic characteristics of the torsion spring provide a stable and continuous restoring force, ensuring that the operating handle 200 automatically returns to its initial position. The structure is simple and highly reliable.

[0072] In some embodiments, the micro switch 300 is triggered when the operating handle 200 rotates 7°. In some embodiments, the maximum rotation angle of the operating handle 200 is 40°, and the pull lock mechanism 400 unlocks the mechanical lock when the operating handle 200 rotates 40°.
