DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is used to operate a door lock of an opening/closing body in a vehicle, etc., and a handle body capable of closing the opening of the storage portion is pivoted to a base member having a storage portion that opens outward. The present invention relates to a lock operation handle device comprising a lock operation handle device.

In a conventional locking handle device for an opening/closing body in a vehicle, etc., a storage section that opens outward is formed on the surface of a door, which is an opening/closing body, and the handle body is stored in this storage section. This handle body is normally stored in the storage compartment, and a gap is formed between the end of the handle body and the edge of the opening of the storage compartment for hanging hands and fingers during operation, and it protrudes from the storage compartment when operated. The locking/unlocking mechanism is provided in the door lock.

However, in such conventional lock operation handle devices, a gap is formed between the end of the handle body and the edge of the opening of the storage section, which impairs the smoothness of the vehicle body surface and impairs aerodynamic performance. Another problem was that the structure of the door lock was complicated.

The present invention has been made by focusing on such conventional problems, and it is possible to close the storage section with the handle body, and to make it possible to hang a hand or finger on the handle body if necessary, and to provide a locking/unlocking mechanism. It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems as a lock operation handle device equipped with a lock operation handle device.

In order to achieve such an object, the present invention includes a base member that is provided in an opening/closing body of a vehicle and has a storage section that opens outward; a closed position in which the handle portion can be closed, an operation standby position in which the hand grip swings outward from the closed position, and an unlocked position in which the handgrip is further rotated from the operation standby position, and a handle body connected to the door lock and biased toward the closed position; a first push-out member that is pivotally supported by the base member and abuts and engages the handle body only from the push-out direction; and a first push-out member provided at an appropriate location on the vehicle. and a second push-out member connected to a locking/unlocking operation mechanism, the handle body being reversed between a locked position and an unlocked position, and pushing out the handle body from a closed position to an operation standby position when reversed from a locked position to an unlocked position. a push-out mechanism that rotates and holds the handle body in the locked position when the handle body is pushed from the operation standby position to the closed position; The block protrusion moves in and out of the movement trajectory, and when it is within the movement trajectory, it engages with the block protrusion of the handle body in the closed position to prevent the handle body from moving toward the unlocked position. A lock operating handle device comprising: a locking/unlocking member having a locking end that allows the handle body to be displaced in the direction of the unlocked position when the handle body is out of the trajectory, and is normally integrated with the second push-out member. The engaging end of the locking/unlocking member that operates automatically engages with a blocking projection fixed to the handle body in the locked position, and holds the handle body in the closed position by holding the handle body so that it cannot be protruded. At this time, the locking end of the locking/unlocking member is within the movement locus of the block protrusion, and the block protrusion engages with the locking end, preventing the handle body from moving toward the unlocked position, thereby allowing the lock operation handle device to move. It will be locked.

To release the lock, use the lock/unlock operation mechanism to reverse the pushing mechanism and the lock/unlock mechanism to the unlocked position, push the handle body to the operation standby position, and hold the handle body so that you can place your hand or fingers on the handle body. enable. At this time, the locking end of the locking/unlocking member moves out of the movement locus of the block protrusion, and the block protrusion no longer engages with the locking end, making it possible to move the handle body toward the unlocked position.

When the handle body is rotated to the unlocked position by hand, the transmission is transmitted to the door lock via the transmission member, and the door lock is unlocked.

To lock the lock, operate the lock/unlock operating mechanism or push the handle body into the closed position, so that the pushing mechanism and the locking/unlocking member are reversed to the locked position, and as described above, the locking end of the locking/unlocking member moves to the block protrusion. The lock is achieved by moving within the trajectory and preventing rotation of the handle body.

Therefore, in the present invention, there is no need to provide a locking/unlocking mechanism for the door lock, and when the lock operating handle device is locked, the opening/closing body is prevented from opening to prevent theft, and when the door lock is unlocked, the door lock can be opened/closed. do.
