Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a door handle device for an automobile or the like.

(Prior Art and its Problems) Conventionally, various types of door handle devices have been proposed.

As one example, as shown in Figure 5 of Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-50029, when the legs of the double torsion spring are inserted into the holes provided in the handle case,
Some handlebars are rotatably assembled by press-fitting the bearing part of the handle onto the shaft part of the handle case.

However, with this type of spring, both ends of the double torsion spring are simply inserted through holes in the handle case, so if vibration is applied to the handle case during assembly, the double torsion spring will There was a problem that the spring could move and come off, making assembly work difficult.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a door handle device in which the double torsion spring does not fall off even when vibrations are applied when the handle and the handle case are assembled.

(Means to Solve the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention consists of a recessed part and an opening, a recessed part or a convex part for mounting is formed inside the recessed part, and a central bottom part of the recessed part is formed. It consists of a synthetic resin handle case with a spring contact part formed thereon, a lever part formed on one side of the base part, and a handle part formed on the other side of the base part.
A handle in which a convex part or a recess that fits into a concave part or a convex part of the handle case is formed at both ends of the base, and spring mounting holes are formed on both sides of the base located on the opposite side of the handle part from the convex part or the concave part. ,
A double torsion spring is formed in the middle part with a protruding part that comes into contact with the spring contact part of the handle case, and both ends are bent sideways and extended so as to be inserted into the spring mounting hole of the handle. The double torsion spring is configured such that both ends of the double torsion spring are inserted into the spring mounting holes of the handle, and the protruding part of the double torsion spring is in contact with the spring abutting part formed at the center bottom of the recessed part of the handle case. The handle is press-fitted and assembled into the handle case.

(Example) Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings which are one example.

In the drawing, reference numeral 1 denotes a handle case made of synthetic resin that is attached to a door (not shown), and includes a recessed part 2 for housing a handle 10 described below, and a handle 1.
0 from which the lever portion 13 protrudes. Further, the bottom surface of the recessed portion 2 has a mounting hole 4 for attaching to a door panel with screws (not shown).

On the other hand, side walls 3a and 3b near the opening 5 of the handle case 1 are provided with cylindrical shaft portions (convex portions) 6a and 6b facing each other.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the end surface of the shaft portion 6a is perpendicular to the axis, and the end surface of one shaft portion 6b is chamfered diagonally so that the lower part thereof protrudes inward. A portion 6c is formed.

The handle 10 is approximately L-shaped, consisting of a base 11 and a handle 18 extending from one end thereof and located in the recess 2. One side wall 12 of the base 11 has a door lock device (see FIG. Lever part 1 having a hole 14 for connecting with a link (not shown)
It has become 3. This side wall 12 is formed with a recess 15 that fits into the shaft portion 6a.

On the other hand, the other side wall 12 is provided with a recess 16 having a chamfered portion 16a at the lower end so as to be press-fittable with the shaft portion 6b.

Further, double torsion springs 2 having a protrusion 21 at the center are provided on both side walls 12 of the handle 10.
Spring mounting hole 1 through which both ends 22, 22 of 0 are inserted
7 and 17 are provided.

Next, a method of assembling the handle case 1 having the above structure and the handle 10 will be explained.

Both ends 22, 22 of the double torsion spring 20
is attached by slightly bending the spring body and inserting it into the spring attachment holes 17, 17 provided in the handle 10.
At this time, the double torsion spring 20 has both ends 2
2 and 22 are inserted into the spring mounting holes 17 and 17 while being biased in the opening direction, so that the double torsion spring 20 will not come off due to vibration or the like. be. Then, as shown in FIG. 7, the handle 10 is first engaged with the recess 15 on the shaft 6 in an oblique manner.
In this case, the central protrusion 21 of the double torsion spring 20 is in contact with the spring contact portion 7 which is a notch provided toward the opening 5 of the handle case 1 .

Next, when the side of the recess 16 of the handle 10 is pressed, the side wall 12 is slightly bent inward by the chamfered parts 6c and 16a, and the recess 16 is pushed into the shaft 6b, and
The shaft portions 6a are rotatably fitted into the recesses 15, respectively, and the handle 10 is assembled to the handle case 1. At this time, even if the center protruding part 21 of the double torsion spring 20 is assembled with a slight deviation on the spring contact part 7 of the handle case 1, both ends 22, 22 are attached to the spring mounting hole of the handle 10.
7 and 17 for positioning, the central protrusion 21 of the double torsion spring 20 is in a balanced state, and when the handle 10 is operated, etc., it is corrected and moves to the normal position, allowing normal operation. can do.

In the above embodiment, the concave portion was provided on the handle 10 side and the convex portion was provided on the handle case 1 side, but this may be reversed. Further, the handle is not limited to the L-shape, but may of course be U-shape.

(Effects of the invention) As described above, according to the invention, the double torsion spring is attached by inserting its both ends into the spring mounting hole provided in advance in the handle, and the center part is attached to the handle case. The handle is fitted and assembled into the handle case so as to come into contact with the contact portion provided in the handle. Therefore, even if the central protruding part of the double torsion spring is assembled with a slight deviation on the spring contact part of the handle case,
Since both ends are inserted into the spring mounting hole of the handle and positioned, the central protruding part of the double torsion spring is in a balanced state, and when the handle is operated, etc., it is corrected and moves to the normal position. The steering wheel can be operated normally. Also,
Since the double torsion spring does not fall off even if vibration is applied to the handle case when assembling the handle, the assembling work can be carried out easily and the cost can be reduced accordingly.
