部103b側の端部1 03dは自由端となっている。The coil spring 103 is formed by coiling a wire rod with a rectangular cross section, and in a free state, as shown in FIG. 8, the right side is a small diameter coil part 103a and the left side is a small diameter coil part 103b, with the approximate center as a boundary. At the same time, the inner diameter of the large diameter coil portion 103b is smaller than the outer diameter of the movable shaft portion 102a (fixed flange portion 10lb). The coil spring 103 has a coil portion expanded in diameter and a small diameter coil portion 103a fixed to a fixed flange portion]. 0

クされると云う“遊び”が生じて問題となっていた。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, the rotation locking device 100 has a movable core bar 102.
When continuously operated from reverse rotation (rotation in the unwinding direction of the coil spring 103) to forward rotation (rotation in the tightening direction of the coil spring 103), the rotation of the movable core bar 102 is instantly locked when changing to the normal rotation. This caused a problem of "play" in which the shaft could not be rotated by a certain angle and then locked.
前記“遊び”は回転ロック装置100の次の様な作動に
よって生じる。The "play" is caused by the following operation of the rotation locking device 100.

状態で残る。The coil spring 103 has a movable core metal 102. and fixed core metal 10
Since it is extrapolated in a close state with a margin of 1,
When the movable core metal 102 is slightly reversed, the coil spring 103 is twisted in the same direction due to the frictional force caused by the tightening. At this time, the fixed flange portion 10lb of the coil spring 103
The extrapolated part (small diameter coil part 103a) is the movable core metal 102
Since the small diameter coil part 103a remains wrapped around the fixed flange part 10lb because it is inserted with a larger interference margin than the side, the fixed flange part 10lb and the movable shaft part 103a remain wrapped around the fixed flange part 10lb.
The coil diameter of the coil C+ at the boundary with 2a increases by the amount of twisting (see FIG. 9(a)). This enlarged diameter coil C1 works as a torsion coil spring and tries to rotate the large diameter coil part 103b that is in close contact with the movable shaft part 102a in the tightening direction, but the large diameter coil part 103b and movable shaft part 102a Since the frictional force generated between the coil CI and the coil CI is larger, the coil CI cannot be rotated, and the coil CI remains with its diameter expanded.

103との間でスリップを生じて逆転する。Further, when the movable core metal 102 is reversed, the diameters of the coils C2...co on the left side of the coil C1 whose diameter has expanded first are also gradually expanded (see FIGS. 9(b) and 9(c)). In this way, the phenomenon of expanding the coil diameter progresses as the movable core metal 102 reverses, and eventually the friction force generated between the coil spring 103 and the movable core metal 102 in close contact with each other, and the coil C whose diameter has expanded, , C2...C2 stops when the torsional torques of C2 are balanced, and the movable core metal 102 generates a slip between it and the coil spring 103 and reverses.
上記コイル径が拡がった状態は可動芯金102の逆転時
及び停止時にも維持される。The state in which the coil diameter is expanded is maintained even when the movable core metal 102 is reversed and stopped.
次に可動芯金102が正転するとき、可動芯金102は

Rotate forward until it approaches 02. This becomes the ``play'' mentioned above.

It is characterized by being covered with an elastic member that generates force.

生じた摩擦力で同方向への回転は瞬時にロックされる。[Operation] When the rotating body is rotated in the direction in which the coil spring is unwound, the partial diameter expansion of the coil of the coil spring is prevented by the binding force of the elastic member. Therefore, the coil spring is in close contact with the rotating body even when the rotating body rotates in the unwinding direction of the coil spring, and the rotating body rotates in the same direction with slippage between the rotating body and the coil spring. After this rotation, when the rotary body attempts to rotate in the tightening direction of the coil spring, the rotation in the same direction is instantly locked due to the frictional force generated by the coil tightening force of the coil spring.

方向へも回転可能となる。In addition, the rotation lock described above can be released by applying an external force to the free end of the coil spring in the direction of unwinding the coil spring to expand the diameter of the coil against the binding force of the elastic member. This allows the rotating body to rotate also in the direction in which the coil spring is tightened.

イルばね4とからなる基本構造を有している。FIG. 1 shows a rotation locking device 1 which is a first embodiment of the present invention. This rotation locking device 1 includes a fixed core metal 2, a movable core metal 3 that is rotatably supported by the fixed core metal 2, and a movable core metal 3 that is closely inserted between the fixed core metal 2 and the movable core metal 3. It has a basic structure consisting of a coiled spring 4.

These explanations are redundant and will therefore be omitted.

いるコイル部の僅かの部分とが定荷重型ぜんまい5で覆
われている。The rotary lock device 1 is equipped with a constant force mainspring 5 which is closely fitted onto the coil spring 4 of the above-described basic structure. As shown in FIG. 2(a), the constant force mainspring 5 is wound so as to have an inner diameter d smaller than the outer diameter of the coil spring 4 assembled in the core bar 2.3 in a free state. For this reason, the constant force type mainspring 5 has its inner diameter enlarged and is inserted over the coil spring 4, and is brought into close contact with the coil spring 4 after being inserted. Furthermore, since the constant force mainspring 5 is machined to have the same curvature over its entire length, when the inner diameter is expanded, the force F pushing it inward is generated uniformly over the entire circumference, as shown in FIG. 2(b). Therefore, the constant force mainspring 5 fitted onto the coil spring 4 holds down the coil spring 4 with a binding force that acts uniformly along its outer periphery. In this embodiment, most of the coil portion of the coil spring 4 that covers the movable core metal 3 and a small portion of the coil portion that covers the fixed core metal 2 are covered by a constant force mainspring 5.

転中でも可動芯金3上にあるコイルばね4は可動芯金3
に密接している。可動芯金3はコイルばね4との間で滑
りを生じて同方向へ回転する。Therefore, when the coil spring 4 of the movable core metal 3 rotates in the unwinding direction, the coil diameter expansion phenomenon of the coil spring 4 that occurs from the boundary between the movable core metal 3 and the fixed core metal 2 to the movable core metal 3 side is prevented. The coil spring 4 on the movable core bar 3 is prevented by the binding force of the constant force spring 5, and the coil spring 4 on the movable core bar 3 is prevented even when the movable core bar 3 rotates in the same direction.
is closely related to The movable core metal 3 causes slippage between the coil spring 4 and rotates in the same direction.
このように可動芯金3上にあるコイルね4は常に密接状
態にあるので、可動芯金3がコイルばね4の巻締め方向
へ回転しようとするとコイルばね4の締付力による摩擦
力で瞬時にロックされる。In this way, the coil spring 4 on the movable core metal 3 is always in a close state, so when the movable core metal 3 tries to rotate in the direction of tightening the coil spring 4, the friction force caused by the tightening force of the coil spring 4 causes an instantaneous movement. is locked.

れる。This lock release can be easily performed by applying an external force in the direction of unwinding the coil spring 4 to the free end 4a of the coil spring 4 to expand the diameter of the coil against the binding force of the constant force mainspring 5. Since all the coils covered by the constant force mainspring 5 expand in diameter evenly, unlocking is performed smoothly.
これによって可動芯金3はコイルばねの巻締め方向へも
回転可能となる。This allows the movable core metal 3 to rotate also in the direction in which the coil spring is tightened.

易に設計することができる。The binding force of the constant load type mainspring 5 depends on the plate thickness, plate width curvature. In addition, since the number of turns can be increased or decreased by changing the number of turns, the rotation locking device 1 can be easily controlled and can easily design a rotation locking device 1 that can obtain a desired operation.

ルばね4を押え込む。The C-shaped ring 11 extends from the center 11a to both ends 1lb, ll.
It is formed by curving an elastic plate that gradually becomes thinner toward b. This C-shaped ring 11 is curved and has an inner diameter d1 smaller than the outer diameter of the coil spring 4 assembled in the core metal 2.3 in a free state (double-dashed line in FIG. 4). For this purpose, the C-shaped ring 11 is expanded in diameter (solid line in FIG. 4) and is inserted over the coil spring 4 incorporated into the core bar 2.3, and is brought into close contact with the coil spring 4 after being inserted. Since the C-shaped ring 11 has the above-mentioned plate thickness shape, after being fitted onto the coil spring 4, a uniform binding force acts along the coil of the coil spring 4, and holds the coil spring 4 down.

11の緊縛力で阻止される。Since this C-shaped ring 11 is fitted over the entire coil portion of the movable core bar 3 of the coil spring 4 and a small portion of the fixed core bar 2, the direction in which the coil spring 4 of the movable core bar 3 is unwound is The binding force of the C-shaped ring 11 prevents the coil diameter of the coil spring 4 from expanding from the boundary between the movable core metal 3 and the fixed core metal 2 toward the movable core metal 3 during rotation.

る。In this rotation locking device 10, similarly to the rotation locking device 1 described above, the movable core bar 3 rotates with slippage between the coiled spring 4 and the coiled spring 4 when the coiled spring 4 rotates in the unwinding direction. When trying to rotate in the tightening direction, C
Due to the binding force of the mold ring 11, rotation in the same direction is instantly locked without any play due to the action of the coil spring 4, which keeps all the coils in close contact with the movable core metal 3 at all times. This lock release is performed in the same manner as in the rotation locking device 1, and the movable core metal 3 can be rotated in the tightening direction of the coil spring 4.
このC型リング11は上記した板厚形状にすることが望

次にこのパーキングブレーキ装置の作動を説明する。Next, the operation of this parking brake device will be explained.
まず、ブレーキ本体(図示せず)を作動させるためには
次の様にする。First, in order to operate the brake body (not shown), proceed as follows.
ペダルプレート40を足で踏んでA矢印方向へ回動させ
るとブレーキケーブル44が引出されてブレーキ本体は
ブレーキの掛った状態となる。ペダルプレート40のA
矢印方向への回動は可動芯金31のコイルばね33の巻

、コイルの拡径現象が起らず、常に全体が可動芯金31
の外周面に密接している。When the pedal plate 40 is stepped on with the foot and rotated in the direction of arrow A, the brake cable 44 is pulled out and the brake body becomes in a braked state. A of pedal plate 40
Since the rotation in the direction of the arrow corresponds to the rotation of the movable core metal 31 in the unwinding direction of the coil spring 33, the movable core metal 31 generates a slip between the coil spring 33 and rotates smoothly. When the movable core metal 31 rotates, the coil spring 33 on the movable core metal 31 is held down by the constant load type mainspring 34, so the diameter expansion phenomenon of the coil does not occur, and the entire movable core metal is always rotated. 31
is in close contact with the outer circumferential surface of the
ブレーキケーブル44にはブレーキ本体のリターンスプ
リングにより常に引出し方向と反対方向(C矢印方向)
の引張力が作用しており、ブレーキペダル40を元の位
置へ復帰させようとする力が作用している。The brake cable 44 is always connected in the opposite direction to the pull-out direction (in the direction of arrow C) due to the return spring of the brake body.
A tensile force is acting on the brake pedal 40, and a force is acting on the brake pedal 40 to return it to its original position.
このためブレーキペダル40を踏込んだ後ペダル40か
ら足を外すとブレーキペダル40は元の位置へ復帰しよ
うとするが、この復帰の際の可動芯金31の回転はコイ
ルばね33の巻締め方向となるので、瞬時にロックされ
る。つまりブレーキペダル40は足を外しても少しも戻
ることもなく踏込んだ位置で停止し、ブレーキの掛った
状態が維持できる。Therefore, when the brake pedal 40 is depressed and then removed from the pedal 40, the brake pedal 40 attempts to return to its original position, but the rotation of the movable core 31 during this return is in the direction of tightening the coil spring 33. Therefore, it will be locked instantly. In other words, even if the brake pedal 40 is released, the brake pedal 40 stops at the depressed position without returning to its original position, and the brake pedal 40 remains applied.
次にブレーキを解除するときは次の様にする。Next time you release the brake, do the following:
レリーズケーブル46をB矢印方向へ引くと、レリーズ
カラ−45がコイルばね33の巻戻し方向へ回動する。When the release cable 46 is pulled in the direction of arrow B, the release collar 45 rotates in the direction in which the coil spring 33 is unwound.
このレリーズカラ−45の回動により、コイルばね33
の他端33bは同方向に移動し、これによってコイルば
ね33のコイル径が拡径し、可動芯金31はコイルばね
33の巻締め方向八回動可能となる。このときペダルプ
レート40はブレーキケーブル44を介してブレーキ本
体のリターンスプリングにより復帰方向へ付勢されてい
るのでペダルプレート40は元の位置へ復帰する。これ
によってブレーキは解除される。This rotation of the release collar 45 causes the coil spring 33 to
The other end 33b moves in the same direction, thereby increasing the coil diameter of the coil spring 33, and the movable core metal 31 can move eight times in the tightening direction of the coil spring 33. At this time, the pedal plate 40 is urged in the return direction by the return spring of the brake body via the brake cable 44, so the pedal plate 40 returns to its original position. This releases the brake.

位置で停止させ、ブレーキのききの一番高い所でブレー
キを維持することができる。In this parking brake device, there is no expansion phenomenon of the coil of the coil spring 33 on the movable core metal 31, and the movable core metal 3l
Since the entire body is always in close contact with the upper part, when the movable core metal 31 attempts to rotate in the direction of tightening the coil spring 33, it is instantly locked, stopping the brake pedal 40 at the depressed position with no return, and preventing the brake from being applied. The brakes can be maintained at the highest point of the wind.

生じることがない。[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, the coil spring that locks the rotation of the rotating body is covered with an elastic member that generates a binding force in the radial direction of the coil of the coil spring. This prevents a phenomenon in which the diameter of the coil in an extreme portion of the coil spring increases due to rotation in the unwinding direction of the spring. For this reason, the entire coil spring on the rotating body is always in close contact with the rotating body, so
When the rotating body tries to rotate in the direction of tightening the coil spring, it is instantly locked by the tightening force of the coil spring, and no "play" occurs.
