Locking device for opening-closing body, and storage device for vehicle
A locking device for an opening-closing body includes: a housing; a rotor that is rotatably supported by the housing; and at least one rod that is provided to move in and out from the housing when the rotor rotates, and that engages with and disengages from a locking portion. The housing includes an accommodating portion that slidably accommodates at least the one rod, the rotor includes a protrusion portion protruding in a rotation axis direction, and the rod includes a fitting recessed portion into which the protrusion portion is fittable. The protrusion portion is configured to be rotatable to a position where the protrusion portion escapes from a slide path of the rod with respect to the accommodating portion.
1. A locking device for an opening-closing body that is openably and closably attached to an opening portion of a fixed body, the locking device comprising:
a housing attached to one of the fixed body and the opening-closing body;
a rotor that is rotatably supported by the housing so as to be rotatable around a rotation axis; and
at least one rod that moves in and out of the housing when the rotor rotates, said at least one rod extending away from the housing along a rod slide path and being movable back and forth along the rod slide path, said rod engaging with and disengaging from a locking portion provided in an other of the fixed body and the opening-closing body,
wherein the housing includes an accommodating portion that slidably receives therein the at least one rod, said accommodating portion defining an opening aligned with the slide path and through which the at least one rod slidably moves as the at least one rod moves back and forth along the rod slide path,
the rotor includes a protrusion portion protruding in a direction parallel to the rotation axis,
the at least one rod includes a fitting recessed portion into which the protrusion portion is received, and
wherein the rotor is configured to be rotatable to a position where the protrusion portion is released from direct contact with the fitting recessed portion,
wherein the housing comprises a retraction portion at a position adjacent to the accommodating portion, wherein the protrusion portion is received in the retraction portion when the protrusion portion is released from the fitting recessed portion.
2. A locking device for an opening-closing body that is openably and closably attached to an opening portion of a fixed body, the locking device comprising:
a housing attached to one of the fixed body and the opening-closing body;
a rotor that is rotatably supported by the housing so as to be rotatable around a rotation axis; and
at least one rod that moves in and out of the housing when the rotor rotates, said at least one rod extending away from the housing along a rod slide path and being movable back and forth along the rod slide path, said rod engaging with and disengaging from a locking portion provided in an other of the fixed body and the opening-closing body,
wherein the housing includes an accommodating portion that slidably receives therein the at least one rod, said accommodating portion defining an opening aligned with the slide path and through which the at least one rod slidably moves as the at least one rod moves back and forth along the rod slide path,
the rotor includes a protrusion portion protruding in a direction parallel to the rotation axis,
the at least one rod includes a fitting recessed portion into which the protrusion portion is received, and
wherein the rotor is configured to be rotatable to a position where the protrusion portion is released from direct contact with the fitting recessed portion,
wherein a distal end of the rod has an inclined surface that comes into contact with the protrusion portion when the rod is inserted into the accommodating portion, said inclined surface being inclined with respect to a traveling direction of the rod such that the protrusion portion is guided into the fitting recessed portion when the rod is inserted into the accommodating portion in a state where the protrusion portion is in contact with the rod.
3. A locking device for an opening-closing body that is openably and closably attached to an opening portion of a fixed body, the locking device comprising:
a housing attached to one of the fixed body and the opening-closing body;
a rotor that is rotatably supported by the housing so as to be rotatable around a rotation axis; and
at least one rod that moves in and out of the housing when the rotor rotates, said at least one rod extending away from the housing along a rod slide path and being movable back and forth along the rod slide path, said rod engaging with and disengaging from a locking portion provided in an other of the fixed body and the opening-closing body,
wherein the housing includes an accommodating portion that slidably receives therein the at least one rod, said accommodating portion defining an opening aligned with the slide path and through which the at least one rod slidably moves as the at least one rod moves back and forth along the rod slide path,
the rotor includes a protrusion portion protruding in a direction parallel to the rotation axis,
the at least one rod includes a fitting recessed portion into which the protrusion portion is received, and
wherein the rotor is configured to be rotatable to a position where the protrusion portion is released from direct contact with the fitting recessed portion;
wherein the at least one rod comprises a first rod to be inserted into the accommodating portion, and a second rod, said second rod having a length that is greater than a length of the first rod, and
the protrusion portion comprises a first protrusion portion to be fitted into a fitting recessed portion of the first rod, and a second protrusion portion formed on an extension portion extending from an outer periphery of the housing, wherein the first protrusion portion and the second protrusion portion protrude parallel to one another in the rotation axis direction, and wherein the second protrusion portion is fitted into a fitting recessed portion of the second rod.
4. A storage device for vehicle
wherein the locking device for an opening-closing body according to claim 3 is used.
5. The locking device for an opening-closing body according to claim 3 , wherein the fitting recessed portion defines a first opening portion through which the protrusion portion is inserted into the fitting recessed portion and pulled from the fitting recessed portion.
