Opening/closing body lock device
There is provided a locking device for an opening and closing body, including: a locking portion; a base; a rotation body that includes a protruding portion on a part of an outer periphery thereof; a locking member; and an elastic member that includes a base portion, and a stopper portion configured to restrict a maximum rotation position of the rotation body in a predetermined direction by abutting against the protruding portion of the rotation body. The stopper portion is disposed in a manner of being biased in a direction opposite to the predetermined direction relative to the base portion. A part of the outer periphery of the rotation body is provided with a sliding contact portion that is configured to come into sliding contact with the elastic member in a process in which the protruding portion approaches the stopper portion.
1 . A locking device for an opening and closing body that is openably and closably attached to an opening portion of a fixed body, the locking device comprising:
a locking portion that is to be provided in one of the fixed body and the opening and closing body;
a base that is to be disposed on another of the fixed body and the opening and closing body;
a rotation body that is rotatably accommodated in or placed on the base and includes a protruding portion on a part of an outer periphery thereof;
a locking member that is configured to slide in conjunction with rotation of the rotation body and configured to engage with and disengage from the locking portion; and
an elastic member that includes a base portion locked and supported by a support portion provided on the base, and a stopper portion configured to restrict a maximum rotation position of the rotation body in a predetermined direction by abutting against the protruding portion of the rotation body,
wherein the stopper portion of the elastic member protrudes in a direction in which the stopper portion is to abut against the protruding portion relative to the base portion,
wherein a part of the outer periphery of the rotation body is provided with a sliding contact portion that is configured to come into sliding contact with the elastic member in a process in which the protruding portion approaches the stopper portion, and
wherein the sliding contact portion protrudes from a cylindrical peripheral wall of the rotation body toward an outer diameter direction.
2 . The locking device for the opening and closing body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the base includes a wall portion disposed at a position facing the outer periphery of the rotation body, and
wherein the stopper portion of the elastic member is disposed between the outer periphery of the rotation body and the wall portion.
3 . The locking device for the opening and closing body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the stopper portion includes a bulging portion bulging toward an outer surface of the rotation body relative to a surface of the base portion facing the outer periphery of the rotation body.
4 . The locking device for the opening and closing body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the sliding contact portion of the rotation body has a shape extending along the outer periphery of the rotation body.
5 . The locking device for the opening and closing body according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a motor configured to rotate the rotation body,
wherein the base is a case configured to accommodate the rotation body, the elastic member, and the motor therein,
wherein a cutout portion is formed on an outer periphery of the case at a position facing the support portion to which the base portion of the elastic member is locked, and
wherein the base portion of the elastic member is supported by the support portion so as to close the cutout portion.
6 . The locking device for the opening and closing body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the sliding contact portion includes a first sliding contact portion that protrudes from the cylindrical peripheral wall of the rotation body toward the outer diameter direction and a second sliding contact portion that protrudes from the first sliding contact portion toward the outer diameter direction.
