Abstract

To reduce the overload of a harness caused by the movement of a handle grip.SOLUTION: In a door handle device 10, a to-be-held portion 42A of a harness 42 is held by a harness holding portion 36. In addition, a base-end-side harness portion 42B extends outward in the vehicle transverse direction from a harness lead-out portion 40B of a proximity sensor 40 and is hooked on a harness hooking portion 30E to be formed in a loop shape. That is, the base-end-side harness portion 42B can be routed in a state in which a portion between the base end portion and the intermediate portion of the base-end-side harness portion 42B and a portion between the intermediate portion and the to-be-held portion 42A are in a loose state. Thereby, even when the relative distance between the harness lead-out portion 40B and the harness hooking portion 30E varies during the movement of a moving arm 30, the variation in the relative distance can be absorbed by the slack of the base-end-side harness portion 42B, so that the overload of the harness 42 during the movement of the handle grip 20 can be reduced.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0016] The door handle device 10 according to the present embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings. The door handle device 10 is configured as a handle device that is applied to various doors, and in this embodiment, the door handle device 10 will be described as an example applied to a front door FD as a left door in a vehicle (automobile). Note that an arrow FR shown appropriately in the drawings indicates the front side of the vehicle to which the door handle device 10 is applied, an arrow UP indicates the upper side of the vehicle, and an arrow W indicates the outer side in the vehicle width direction of the vehicle. In the following description, when the up-down and front-rear directions are used, they indicate the up-down direction of the vehicle and the front-rear direction of the vehicle unless otherwise specified. In addition, the thickness direction of the front door FD coincides with the vehicle width direction, and the front-rear direction corresponds to the orthogonal direction of the present invention.

[0017] (Overall configuration of door handle device 10) As shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the door handle device 10 includes a handle grip 20 that is held by an occupant (user), a moving arm 30 that connects the handle grip 20 to the front door FD, and a proximity sensor 40 as an electric component arranged in the handle grip 20. When the front door FD is not opened or closed, the handle grip 20 is arranged in a storage position (position shown in Fig. 1(A)) and stored in the front door FD. On the other hand, when the front door FD is opened or closed, the handle grip 20 moves from the storage position to a deployment position (position shown in Fig. 1(B)) and protrudes outward in the thickness direction of the front door FD (outward in the vehicle width direction). That is, the door handle device 10 is configured as a so-called retractable door handle device (flush handle device). Hereinafter, each component of the door handle device 10 will be described in the arrangement state of the handle grip 20 in the storage position.

[0018] (About Handle Grip 20) The handle grip 20 includes a grip body 22 and a grip cover 24, and the grip cover 24 is attached to the grip body 22 to form the handle grip 20. The handle grip 20 is generally formed in a substantially long plate shape extending in the front-rear direction with the thickness direction being in the up-down direction, and is formed in a hollow substantially U-shape opening toward the inside in the vehicle width direction in a plan view seen from above. Specifically, the handle grip 20 includes a front grip portion 20A constituting the front end of the handle grip 20, a rear grip portion 20B constituting the rear end of the handle grip 20, and an intermediate grip portion 20C extending in the front-rear direction and connecting the outside ends of the front grip portion 20A and the rear grip portion 20B in the vehicle width direction. The intermediate grip portion 20C is configured as a grip portion to be gripped by the occupant. In addition, the inside ends of the front grip portion 20A and the rear grip portion 20B in the vehicle width direction are open toward the inside in the vehicle width direction. Furthermore, a notch 20D that is open toward the inside in the vehicle width direction is formed in the rear wall of the handle grip 20 at the inner end in the vehicle width direction. As a result, the notch 20D communicates the inside and outside of the rear end of the handle grip 20 in the front-rear direction. Also, the rear grip portion 20B is slightly inclined rearward as it moves toward the outside in the vehicle width direction in a plan view (see the directions of arrows A and B in FIG. 1), and hereinafter this direction is referred to as the inclination direction.

[0019] (Regarding the moving arm 30) The moving arm 30 is formed in a substantially long plate shape with the thickness direction being the up-down direction, and is formed in a substantially V-shaped plate shape that is open to the outside in the vehicle width direction in a plan view. Specifically, the moving arm 30 includes a front arm portion 30A that extends in a direction inclined rearward as it approaches the inside in the vehicle width direction, an intermediate arm portion 30B that extends rearward from the inside end of the front arm portion 30A in the vehicle width direction, and a rear arm portion 30C that extends in a direction inclined rearward as it approaches the outside in the vehicle width direction from the rear end of the intermediate arm portion 30B. In addition, the connection portion between the front arm portion 30A and the intermediate arm portion 30B is configured as a bent portion 30D.

[0020] The moving arm 30 is disposed so as to straddle the rear wall of the handle grip 20. Specifically, the front arm portion 30A is disposed within the rear portion of the rear grip portion 20B of the handle grip 20, the rear arm portion 30C is disposed behind the handle grip 20 and within the front door FD, and the intermediate arm portion 30B is disposed within the cutout portion 20D of the handle grip 20.

[0021] The rear end (one end) of the moving arm 30 is rotatably supported by a rotating shaft 32 provided on a base (not shown) fixed to the front door FD, and the rotating shaft 32 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape with the vertical direction as its axial direction. The front end (the other end) of the moving arm 30 is disposed in front of the rear end of the moving arm 30 and rotatably supported by a rotating shaft 34 provided on the handle grip 20, and the rotating shaft 34 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape with the vertical direction as its axial direction. As a result, the rear grip portion 20B of the handle grip 20 is rotatably connected to the front door FD by the moving arm 30. Although not shown, the front grip portion 20A of the handle grip 20 is also rotatably connected to a base fixed to the front door FD by an arm configured similarly to the moving arm 30.

[0022] The moving arm 30 is connected to an actuator (not shown), and the actuator is electrically connected to a control unit (not shown) of the vehicle. The actuator is driven by the control of the control unit, whereby the moving arm 30 is operated and the handle grip 20 is moved from the stored position to the deployed position. Specifically, in a plan view, the moving arm 30 rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 32, and the front end (rotating shaft 34) of the moving arm 30 is displaced outward in the vehicle width direction, so that the handle grip 20 moves to the deployed position (see FIG. 4). More specifically, the front end of the moving arm 30 is displaced to one side in the inclination direction (the side in the direction of the arrow A in FIG. 3), and the handle grip 20 slides to one side in the inclination direction and is disposed at the deployed position. In addition, when the handle grip 20 slides to the deployed position, the intermediate arm portion 30B of the moving arm 30 is displaced forward. Furthermore, when the handle grip 20 is in the deployed position, the inclination of the front arm portion 30A with respect to the vehicle width direction is set so that the front arm portion 30A is disposed substantially along an inclined direction.

[0023] A harness hook 30E for hanging a harness 42 (described later) is formed at the center in the up-down direction on the outer periphery of the front end of the moving arm 30. The harness hook 30E is disposed on the front side of the rotating shaft 34 and is formed in a substantially L-shape that is open to the outside in the vehicle width direction in a plan view. Specifically, the harness hook 30E includes a first hook 30E1 as a hook main body extending forward from the moving arm 30 on the front side of the rotating shaft 34, and a second hook 30E2 extending outward in the vehicle width direction from the front end of the first hook 30E1. When the handle grip 20 moves from the stored position to the deployed position, the harness hook 30E rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 34 and is relatively displaced to one side in the substantially inclined direction. In this embodiment, the distance between the rotating shaft 34 and the harness hanging part 30E and the rotation amount of the moving arm 30 are set so as to reduce the relative displacement amount of the harness hanging part 30E when the moving arm 30 moves. More specifically, the position of the harness hanging part 30E is set so that the entire harness hanging part 30E is located forward with respect to the rotating shaft 34 even when the handle grip 20 is in the unfolded position.

[0024] The intermediate arm portion 30B of the moving arm 30 is provided with a harness holding portion 36 that holds a harness 42, which will be described later. That is, the harness holding portion 36 is disposed on the inner side in the vehicle width direction and on the rear side with respect to the harness hanging portion 30E. When viewed from the front-rear direction, the harness holding portion 36 is formed in a substantially U-shaped plate shape that is open to the outer side in the vehicle width direction. The harness holding portion 36 is attached to the intermediate arm portion 30B from the inner side in the vehicle width direction. Specifically, the harness holding portion 36 is fixed to the moving arm 30 such that the upper and lower ends of the harness holding portion 36 sandwich the intermediate arm portion 30B from above and below.

[0025] (Regarding the proximity sensor 40) The proximity sensor 40 is configured as a capacitance sensor, and detects the approach or contact of an occupant to the handle grip 20. The proximity sensor 40 is formed in a substantially rectangular plate shape with its thickness direction being in the vertical direction and extending in the vehicle width direction. The proximity sensor 40 is disposed in the rear grip portion 20B of the handle grip 20 and in front of the front arm portion 30A of the moving arm 30, and is fixed to the handle grip 20. Specifically, the proximity sensor 40 is disposed close to the front side of the harness hanging portion 30E of the moving arm 30.

[0026] The rear surface of the proximity sensor 40 is formed in a stepped shape, and the vehicle width direction inner end of the rear surface of the proximity sensor 40 is disposed forward of the vehicle width direction outer end of the rear surface of the proximity sensor 40. Specifically, a hollowed-out portion 40A hollowed out toward the front side is formed in the vehicle width direction inner portion of the rear surface of the proximity sensor 40. The space between the moving arm 30 and the proximity sensor 40 is made to be a gap G, and the hollowed-out portion 40A expands the gap G in the front-rear direction. The harness hanging portion 30E described above is disposed rearward of the vehicle width direction outer end of the hollowed-out portion 40A.

[0027] A harness outlet 40B is provided at a rear end of the inner surface of the proximity sensor 40 in the vehicle width direction. The harness outlet 40B protrudes inward in the vehicle width direction from the proximity sensor 40 and is disposed on the other side in the inclined direction with respect to the harness hanging portion 30E. An insertion hole 40C is formed penetrating the harness outlet 40B in the vertical center in the front-rear direction, and the insertion hole 40C is formed in an elongated hole shape with the vertical direction as the longitudinal direction.

[0028] The proximity sensor 40 has two harnesses 42, which extend from a harness lead-out portion 40B. A longitudinal intermediate portion of the harness 42 is configured as a held portion 42A. A tube 44 is provided in the held portion 42A, and the two harnesses 42 are bound together by the tube 44. A portion of the harness 42 on the base end side of the held portion 42A is configured as a base end harness portion 42B, and a portion of the harness 42 on the tip end side of the held portion 42A is configured as a tip end harness portion 42C. The held portion 42A (tube 44) is held by the harness holding portion 36, and the harness 42 is arranged in the handle grip 20 and the front door FD.

[0029] Specifically, the base end of the base end harness portion 42B is held by the harness lead-out portion 40B, and the base end harness portion 42B extends from the harness lead-out portion 40B. More specifically, the base end of the base end harness portion 42B drawn out from the vehicle width direction inner end of the proximity sensor 40 is inserted from the rear side into the insertion hole 40C of the harness lead-out portion 40B and is wound around the tip end of the harness lead-out portion 40B. In addition, the base end harness portion 42B wound around the tip end of the harness lead-out portion 40B extends from the harness lead-out portion 40B to the outside in the vehicle width direction (toward the harness hanging portion 30E) and is arranged in the gap G between the moving arm 30 and the proximity sensor 40.

[0030] Then, an intermediate portion of the base end harness portion 42B extending outward in the vehicle width direction from the harness lead-out portion 40B is hung on the harness hanging portion 30E of the moving arm 30, and the base end harness portion 42B is folded back inward in the vehicle width direction. The base end harness portion 42B folded back inward in the vehicle width direction from the harness hanging portion 30E is routed along the front arm portion 30A and is bent rearward at the bending portion 30D of the moving arm 30. The held portion 42A (tube 44) of the harness 42 is disposed adjacent to the inner side of the intermediate arm portion 30B in the vehicle width direction and is held by the intermediate arm portion 30B by the harness holding portion 36. As a result, the base end harness portion 42B is routed within the handle grip 20.

[0031] In the routed state of the base-side harness portion 42B, the base-side harness portion 42B is formed in a substantially elliptical loop shape with the vehicle width direction as the longitudinal direction and the up-down direction as the transverse direction when viewed from the front side (see FIG. 3). Furthermore, the portion between the base end portion and the intermediate portion of the base-side harness portion 42B is routed in the gap G in a slack state so that the length between the base end portion and the intermediate portion (the portion hung on the harness hanging portion 30E) of the base-side harness portion 42B is longer than the length between the harness lead-out portion 40B and the harness hanging portion 30E. More specifically, when the handle grip 20 moves from the stored position to the deployed position, the harness hook portion 30E is displaced relative to the harness lead-out portion 40B in one inclined direction, so that the length between the harness lead-out portion 40B and the harness hook portion 30E becomes slightly longer. However, even when the handle grip 20 is in the deployed position, the portion between the base end and the middle portion of the base end harness portion 42B is arranged in a slack state within the gap G so that the loop shape of the base end harness portion 42B is maintained (see Figure 4).

[0032] The tip-side harness portion 42C extends rearward from the tube 44 and is routed inside the front door FD. The tip of the harness 42 is electrically connected to the control unit. This allows the control unit to drive the actuator based on a detection signal output from the proximity sensor 40 to the control unit.

[0033] Furthermore, when the handle grip 20 moves from the stored position to the deployed position, the harness holding portion 36 of the moving arm 30 is displaced forward and approaches the harness lead-out portion 40B of the proximity sensor 40. In other words, the held portion 42A (tube 44) of the harness 42 held by the harness holding portion 36 is configured to approach the base end of the harness 42 (base end harness portion 42B).

[0034] (Action and effect) Next, the operation and effects of the door handle device 10 according to this embodiment will be described.

[0035] In the door handle device 10 configured as described above, when the front door FD is not opened or closed, the handle grip 20 is disposed at a storage position and stored in the front door FD. When the proximity sensor 40 detects an occupant's approach to or contact with the front door FD, the actuator is driven under the control of the control unit, and the moving arm 30 is actuated. Specifically, the moving arm 30 rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 32 in a plan view. As a result, the front end portion (rotating shaft 34) of the moving arm 30 is displaced outward in the vehicle width direction (to one side in the tilt direction), and the handle grip 20 and the proximity sensor 40 move from the storage position to the deployed position.

[0036] Further, a harness hanging portion 30E is provided at the front end of the moving arm 30, and a harness holding portion 36 is provided at the intermediate arm portion 30B of the moving arm 30, and the harness hanging portion 30E is disposed on the outer side in the vehicle width direction relative to the harness holding portion 36. Furthermore, a proximity sensor 40 is provided on the front side of the moving arm 30.

[0037] Here, the held portion 42A of the harness 42 is held by the harness holding portion 36. The harness 42 (the base end harness portion 42B) is extended from the harness lead-out portion 40B of the proximity sensor 40 to the outside in the vehicle width direction, and is hung on the harness hanging portion 30E to form a loop. That is, the base end harness portion 42B can be arranged in the handle grip 20 with the portion between the base end and the intermediate portion and the portion between the intermediate portion and the held portion 42A in the base end harness portion 42B in a slack state. As a result, even if the relative distance between the harness lead-out portion 40B and the harness hanging portion 30E changes when the moving arm 30 moves, the change in the relative distance can be absorbed by the slackness of the base end harness portion 42B. In this embodiment, when the handle grip 20 moves from the stored position to the deployed position, the harness hanging portion 30E moves slightly to the outside in the vehicle width direction (one side in the inclination direction) with respect to the rotation shaft 34. That is, the relative distance between the harness hanging portion 30E and the harness lead-out portion 40B fluctuates to become slightly longer, but the amount of this fluctuation can be absorbed by the slack in the base-end harness portion 42B, thereby reducing the overload on the harness 42 when the handle grip 20 moves.

[0038] Furthermore, when the handle grip 20 moves from the stored position to the deployed position, the harness holding portion 36 is displaced forward and approaches the harness lead-out portion 40B. This allows the routing state of the looped base-end harness portion 42B to be maintained in a good condition even if the handle grip 20 moves.

[0039] The proximity sensor 40 has a harness lead-out portion 40B, and the base end of the harness 42 (base end harness portion 42B) is held in a wound state around the harness lead-out portion 40B. Specifically, the base end of the harness 42 is inserted into the insertion hole 40C of the harness lead-out portion 40B from the rear side and wound around the harness lead-out portion 40B. The harness 42 wound around the harness lead-out portion 40B extends outward in the vehicle width direction. This allows the base end of the harness 42 to be formed so that the base end of the harness 42 is held by the harness lead-out portion 40B while the base end of the harness 42 is extended toward the harness hanging portion 30E. As a result, when the handle grip 20 moves between the stored position and the deployed position, the base end of the harness 42 can be prevented from being excessively bent. This allows the overload on the base end of the harness 42 to be reduced.

[0040] The front end of the moving arm 30 is connected to the handle grip 20 by a rotating shaft 34 whose axial direction is the up-down direction. Furthermore, the harness hook 30E is formed on the outer periphery of the front end of the moving arm 30. This allows the harness hook 30E to be disposed closer to the rotating shaft 34 than when the harness hook 30E is formed at a location other than the front end of the moving arm 30. As a result, it is possible to suppress the fluctuation of the relative distance between the harness hook 30E and the harness lead-out portion 40B when the handle grip 20 moves between the stored position and the deployed position. Therefore, it is possible to effectively suppress overloading of the harness 42.

[0041] The harness hook 30E has a first hook 30E1 extending forward from the front end of the moving arm 30, and the harness 42 extending outward in the vehicle width direction from the proximity sensor 40 is hooked around the first hook 30E1. This allows the portion between the base end and the middle part of the harness 42 to be looped when viewed from the front-rear direction and arranged between the moving arm 30 and the proximity sensor 40.

[0042] In this embodiment, the proximity sensor 40 has a harness outlet portion 40B, and the base end of the harness 42 is held by the harness outlet portion 40B, and the harness 42 extends from the harness outlet portion 40B. Alternatively, the harness outlet portion 40B may be omitted in the proximity sensor 40, and the harness 42 may be configured to extend directly from, for example, the inner end of the proximity sensor 40 in the vehicle width direction.

[0043] In addition, in the present invention, the electrical components may be switch devices, lighting devices, antenna devices, and other electrical components equipped with a wire harness that needs to be stored within the handle grip 2, and the functions and uses of the electrical components are not limited. Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to application to vehicles, but can also be applied to door handle devices for opening and closing doors of buildings such as ordinary homes and offices.
