摘要: An electric lock device for an opening and closing member includes: a lock portion; a rod; a biasing member; and an actuator. The actuator includes a case, a motor, a wheel, and a rotor. The wheel is provided with a pressing portion that is configured to engage with a receiving portion provided on the rotor or the rod when the wheel rotates in a predetermined direction to move the rod. When a rotation force is applied to the rotor in a direction against a biasing force of the biasing member via the rod in a state where the rod is biased by the biasing member in a direction in which the rod is engaged with the lock portion, the rotor is capable of rotating independently of the wheel in a direction in which the receiving portion is separated from the pressing portion.

摘要: A latch assembly for an access door of a storage compartment in a vehicle, includes a locking bar configured to move into an engaged configuration which enables the access door to be placed and held into a closed position and a disengaged configuration which permits the access door to be placed into an opened position; and an automatic locking mechanism including a shape memory alloy (SMA) actuator configured to be coupled to the access door, and further including a locking feature operably coupled to a portion of the locking bar, and configured to engage and disengage the SMA actuator which is electrically energized to move into a locked position to prohibit the locking feature from moving. A latch assembly for an access door of a storage compartment in a vehicle includes an SMA actuator configured to move the locking bar into the disengaged configuration with the storage compartment.

摘要: A vehicle glove box latch includes a housing, a paddle pivotably connected to the housing, a rotor pivotably connected to the housing, a pawl coupled to the rotor and having an end that is engaged with an opening in the vehicle, and a lock barrel mounted to the housing for locking and unlocking the vehicle glove box latch. In a locked state of the lock barrel, the pawl cannot be disengaged from the opening in the vehicle. In an unlocked state of the lock barrel, the pawl can be disengaged from the opening for opening the vehicle glove box. The lock barrel, the rotor and the rotor mounting portion are concentrically aligned along an axis, which reduces the depth of the latch, which reduces the space in the glove box necessary for accommodating the latch, thereby resulting in an increase in the available storage space in the glove box.

摘要: 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.

摘要: A glove compartment lock device includes: a base member attached to a glove compartment; a knob member supported by the base member so as to be rotatable around a shaft portion between a closed position and an opened position; an arm member supported at a center portion in a longitudinal direction thereof by the base member so as to be swingable between a locked position and an unlocked position of the glove compartment and configured to come into contact with the knob member at one end portion thereof; and a spring member locked at one end portion thereof to the knob member, locked at another end portion thereof to another end portion of the arm member, and configured to generate a biasing force that rotates the knob member to the closed position and swings the arm member to the locked position. A rotation direction around the shaft portion in which the one end portion of the spring member rotates the knob member to the closed position and a rotation direction around the shaft portion in which the other end portion of the spring member swings the arm member to the locked position are opposite to each other.

摘要: A latch assembly for closing a door of a glovebox compartment includes a key cylinder having an eccentric shaft; a striker connected to the key cylinder to form a scotch-yoke connection to the eccentric shaft so that a rotation of the key cylinder is transformed to a linear movement of the striker; and a pair of latching members to lock the door. The pair of latching members includes a first latching member having an operation portion to engage or disengage from the striker, and a second latching member connected to the first latching member to simultaneously move with the first latching member. The key cylinder rotates to switch between an unlocked state in which the striker engages the operation portion and a locked state in which the striker is disengaged from the operation portion.

摘要: A glovebox assembly includes a housing having an aperture for accessing an interior volume. An inner flap is rotationally coupled to the housing and is operable to a securing position within the aperture that at least partially encloses the interior volume. An outer door is rotationally coupled to the housing and selectively operable to an open position to access the interior volume wherein the outer door is operable independently of the inner flap.
