Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the possibility of inadvertent electric shock by surely cutting the high voltage power supply of an external circuit which is to be switched when the power source of the circuit for driving switch is cut off. CONSTITUTION:A main switch 4 is switched ON/OFF by operating the working switch 2 ON/OFF in a car. Even when a power source 1 is cut off by unintended cause such as static discharging when the switch 4 is turned ON, the engagement between a contact point driving lever 5 and a worm gear 10 is canceled by cutting the electrification to a solenoid 8, to separate a mobile contact point 4a and a fixed contact point 4b by the resiliency of a return spring 7. The switch 4 is automatically switched to an OFF mode. Namely, when the power source 1 is cut off, the high voltage power supply 16 of the circuit 15 for driving main motor is also cut off, and the safety is thus improved.

In the switch driving mechanism having the above-described components, when the power is supplied, the contact driving body to which the driving force of the motor is transmitted moves the movable contact to bring it into contact with the fixed contact, and then the engagement driven by the solenoid. By locking the contact drive member with a member, both contacts can be kept in contact with each other, and when the power is cut off while the switch is in the ON state,
Since the energization of the solenoid can be cut off to disengage the engagement member from the contact drive body, the elastic force of the return spring pushing the contact drive body to separate the movable contact from the fixed contact causes It is possible to drive the contact driving body and automatically switch the switch unit to the off state.

In the switch driving mechanism constructed as described above, when the operation switch 2 in the vehicle compartment is turned on and the circuit is closed, the voltage of 12 V of the power source 1 is applied to the motor 3 and the solenoid 8, so that the movable iron core 8a. The worm gear 10 driven to the left in the drawing meshes with the gear portion 5a of the contact drive lever 5, and the motor 3 is started to drive the worm gear 10 to rotate. Therefore, the contact drive is performed as the worm gear 10 rotates. The lever 5 begins to rotate in the clockwise direction in the figure against the elastic force of the return spring 7. Therefore, when the contact drive lever 5 rotates by a predetermined amount, the movable contact 4a contacts the fixed contact 4b to switch the main switch 4 from the off state to the on state, and the movable contact 4a is biased by the contact spring 6. Therefore, the fixed contact 4b is pressed. And, in this way, both contacts 4a, 4b
When the contact drive lever 5 comes into contact with the lever stopper 14, the contact drive lever 5 comes into contact with the lever stopper 14 and its position is regulated.
Continues to rotate thereafter, the worm gear 10 begins to move upward in the figure against the elastic force of the limit spring 11, and follows the worm gear 10 to follow the actuator 1
When 3 moves to a predetermined position, the limit switch 12 is switched from the closed state to the open state, and the power supply to the motor 3 is cut off. Therefore, the worm gear 10 stops at that position and is locked by the contact drive lever 5, and similarly, the contact drive lever 5 is locked by the worm gear 10 with both contacts 4a and 4b in contact with each other, and the main switch 4 becomes Holds on.

The switch drive mechanism described above switches the main switch 4 on and off by turning on and off the operation switch 2 in the passenger compartment. However, it is intended when the main switch 4 is in the on state. Even if the power supply 1 is cut off for some reason (for example, discharge), the contact drive lever 5 is disconnected from the power supply to the solenoid 8.
The worm gear 10 is disengaged from the fixed contact 4b by the elastic force of the return spring 7, so that the main switch 4 is automatically turned off. That is, when the power supply 1 for the switch drive circuit is cut off, the high-voltage power supply 16 for the main motor drive circuit 15 is always cut off, so that the risk of accidental electric shock is reduced and safety is improved. .

In the switch drive mechanism constructed as described above, the voltage of the power source 20 is applied to the motor 22 and the solenoid 32 when the operation switch 21 in the vehicle compartment is turned on and the circuit is closed in the state of FIG. A downward attraction force acts on the latch cam 33 via the movable iron core 32a, and the rack gear 3 rotates as the pinion gear 23 rotates.
The contact drive slider 29 integrated with 0 starts moving leftward in the figure against the elastic force of the return spring 31, and the cam portion 29a pushes up the support lever 28 in the clockwise direction in the figure via the roller 25. Therefore, when the contact drive slider 29 moves by a predetermined amount, the movable contact 24a contacts the fixed contact 24b, the main switch 24 is switched from the off state to the on state, and the movable contact 24a is biased by the contact spring 26. Therefore, the fixed contact 24b is pressed. When the contact drive slider 29 moves in this manner until both contacts 24a, 24b are surely brought into contact with each other, the latching cam 33 first falls into the engaging hole 29b, and then the projection 29c abuts the limit switch 34 so that the switch 34 is moved. Switching from the closed state to the open state, and as a result, the energization of the motor 22 is cut off and the contact drive slider 29 is pushed back by the return spring 31, but since the latching cam 33 is inserted in the engagement hole 29b, the slider is driven. The position of the support lever 28 is immediately regulated, and thus the position of the support lever 28 is also regulated while the contacts 24a and 24b are in contact with each other, and the main switch 24 is held in the ON state as shown in FIG.

Further, when the power switch 20 is turned off by turning off the actuating switch 21 while the main switch 24 is in the on state, the solenoid 32 is de-energized so that it acts on the latching cam 33. The downward attraction force disappears, and the contact drive slider 29 is pushed rightward from the state of FIG. 3 by the elastic force of the return spring 31. Therefore, the latching cam 33 is forcibly pushed up from the inside of the engaging hole 29b, the engagement between the cam 33 and the contact drive slider 29 is released, and the latching cam 33 is pushed up against the roller 25 as the cam portion 29a moves. Since the amount decreases, the support lever 28 starts to rotate counterclockwise from the state of FIG. 3 by the elastic force of the return spring 27, so that the movable contact 24a is separated from the fixed contact 24b and the main switch 24 is turned off. It is switched to the state. Further, in the process in which the contact drive slider 29 returns to the initial position shown in FIG. 2 by the elastic force of the return spring 31,
Since the protrusion 29c is separated from the limit switch 34, the switch 34 is switched from the open state to the closed state.

Therefore, also in the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, if the power supply 20 is cut off for some reason while the main switch 24 is in the ON state, the solenoid 32 is de-energized and the contact drive slider. Since the engagement between 29 and the latch cam 33 is released, the main switch 24 can be automatically switched to the off state by the elastic force of the return spring 31 and the return spring 27, and thus the switch drive circuit. When the power source 20 is turned off, the high voltage power source 16 of the main motor drive circuit 15 is always turned off.

As described above, in the switch drive mechanism according to the present invention, the movable contact and the fixed contact of the switch portion are separated by locking the contact driving body with the engagement member driven by the solenoid when energized. If the power is cut off for some reason while the contact state is maintained and the switch section is in the on state, the solenoid is de-energized and the engagement member is disengaged from the contact drive body. The contact drive body can be driven by the resilience of the switch to automatically switch the switch section to the OFF state. Therefore, when the power supply for the switch drive circuit is cut off, the external target The high-voltage power supply of the circuit is also cut off, so that there is less risk of accidental electric shock, and a safe switch drive mechanism can be provided.
