An automotive lid lock device comprises a lock proper which includes a latch plate and a locking plate. The locking plate is pivotal between a locking position to lock the latch plate and an unlocking position to release the latch plate. The lid lock device further comprises a power unlocking mechanism for pivoting the locking plate to the unlocking position with an aid of an electric power. The power unlocking mechanism includes an electric motor; a worm connected to an output shaft of the motor to rotate therewith; a worm wheel operatively engaged with the worm and a release lever extending between the locking plate and the worm wheel to pivot the locking plate from the locking position to the unlocking position when the worm wheel is turned in a given direction. The release lever, the locking plate and the worm wheel are so arranged that when the worm wheel is turned in the given direction, the worm wheel pushes the release lever toward the locking plate.

The lock device for locking a striker pin is shown, which comprises a base plate to which a latch plate is pivotally connected. The latch plate is formed with a latching notch. The latch plate can assume a full-latch position wherein the latching notch fully latches the striker pin, a half-latch position wherein the latching notch incompletely latches the striker pin and a release position wherein the latching notch fully releases the striker pin. A first spring is used for biasing the latch plate to pivot toward the release position. A locking plate is pivotally connected to the base plate and has a pawl portion which is engageable with the latch plate to provide the latch plate with the full-latch and half-latch positions. A second spring is used for biasing the locking plate to pivot in a direction to achieve the engagement between the pawl portion and the latch plate. A full open lever is pivotally connected to the base plate. A lost-motion mechanism is arranged between the locking plate and the full open lever so that when, with the latch plate assuming the half-latch position, the full open lever is pivoted beyond a given degree, the pawl portion of the locking plate is disengaged from the latch plate thereby to permit the latch plate to assume the release position.

In order to keep the latched condition of a door lock proper even when the associated door is considerably deformed due to a vehicle collision or the like, the outside lever extending from the door lock proper is provided with a pointed portion which is directed toward an outer panel of the door. Upon deformation of the outer panel, the pointed portion is forced to stick into the deformed outer panel establishing a locked engagement therebetween and thus preventing the door lock proper from taking the unlatched condition.

A push-pull cable arrangement for selectively transmitting longitudinal motion to two separate destinations has an inner wire having a front end, a rear end and an intermediate node between the front and rear ends. The inner wire is enclosed with a first outer casing between the front end and the intermediate node, and with a second outer casing between the intermediate node and the rear end. A front end of the first casing facing the front end of the wire is stationary, and a rear end of the second casing facing the rear end of the inner wire is also stationary. There is further provided an intermediate unit having a first member to which a rear end of the first casing is fixed, and a second member to which a front end of the second casing is fixed. One of the first and second members is a stationary housing, and the other is a sliding member slidably contained in the housing. The housing and the sliding member receives the inner wire with the intermediate node slidably, and the sliding member is movable longitudinally of the wire in the housing. When the inner wire is pulled, the sliding member abuts against the housing and can not move, so that a pull motion is transmitted to the rear end of the wire. When the wire is pushed, the intermediate node causes the sliding member to move away from the housing, and this movement is transmitted to another destination.

A lock apparatus includes: a control unit carrying out transmission and reception of an electronic signal between the electronic key and the control unfit so as to perform ID verification; a rotating member disposed rotatably inside a casing; a lock actuator receiving a lock release signal from the control unit so as to release a lock on the rotating member to the casing; a key insertion hole disposed to the rotating member; a slider hole going through the rotating member; a slider inserted into the slider hole and disposed such that its inner end is protruded into the key insertion hole; and a check lever supported rotatably and in which one end thereof is an operating portion activating the transmission and reception of the control unit and the other end makes contact with the outer end face of the slider. An outer end face of the slider is submerged from the external peripheral face of the rotating member when the electronic key is not inserted or inserted incompletely, and the slider is pushed by an insertion portion of the electrical key and slid outward when the electronic key is inserted normally, so that the outer end face makes flush with the external peripheral face of the rotating member. When the rotating member is rotated by the, electronic key, the other end of the check lever is moved from the outer end face of the slider to the external peripheral face of the rotating member.

A lock apparatus of the invention capable of being locked/unlocked by an electronic key, comprises: an electronic key having a circuit chip generating an electronic signal, and an insertion portion provided at an end thereof and comprised of a pair of opposing flat portions and slope portions on both sides so as to be formed in a tapered flat shape; and a rotating member having an insertion hole opening at an end face thereof and in which the insertion portion of the electronic key is to be inserted, an opening portion of the key insertion hole having a rectangular sectional shape corresponding to a cross section of the insertion portion and being larger than an end of the insertion portion, and an interior of the key insertion hole being formed in a tapered flat shape corresponding to the tapered flat shape of the insertion portion and having a slant wall as a side face. Here, a rotating force from the electronic key inserted into the key insertion hole is transmitted to the rotating member through substantially full contact between the opposing flat portions of the electronic key and the interior the key insertion hole.

A steering lock device includes a housing and a key cylinder rotatably disposed in the housing. A generally cylindrical member is rotatably disposed within the housing coaxially with the key cylinder. The cylindrical member includes an outer wall with a groove having a first circumferential groove section, a second circumferential groove section axially spaced from the first circumferential groove section, and a junction section connecting the first and second circumferential groove sections. A first surface is disposed at one end of the first groove section at the junction section and inclined at a predetermined angle to the first groove section, and a second surface is disposed at the end of the second groove section at the junction section and arranged generally perpendicular to the second groove section. A latch is slidably disposed within the housing and includes a first end projecting outwardly from the housing and a second end projecting within the groove in the outer wall of the cylindrical member.

An actuator is provided with a motor having a worm, a worm wheel in engagement with said worm and having a pinion-engaging part, a pinion having a worm wheel-engaging part and a rotational axis offset from the rotational axis of the worm wheel, a sector wheel having an output arm and meshing with the pinion, a contact holder, and a positional switch for switching contacts according to the engagement of the contact holder with the sector wheel. The sector wheel is sited at its starting position in a state in which the pinion-engaging part is engaged with the worm wheel-engaging part at a position opposite to the rotational axis of the pinion relative to the rotational axis of the worm wheel. The actuator is compact and uses the motor power very effectively.
