Description

ロック機構およびロック機構を備えた装置Locking mechanism and device with locking mechanism
 本発明は、ロック機構およびロック機構を備えた装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a locking mechanism and an apparatus provided with the locking mechanism.
 現金自動預払い機等の自動取引装置(ATM:Automated /Automatic Teller Machine)には様々なロック機構が使用されており、実開平5-049755号公報には収納庫を装置本体に固定するロック機構が記載されている。 Various lock mechanisms are used in automatic transaction devices (ATM: Automated / Automatic Teller Machine) such as cash dispensers, and in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 5-049755, the lock mechanism is used to fix the storage to the main body of the apparatus. Is described.
 また、従来の自動取引装置は、入出金ユニット等の機構ユニットや金庫部などを隠すために前扉が実装されており、この前扉にもロック機構が使用される。 Further, in the conventional automatic transaction apparatus, a front door is mounted to hide a mechanism unit such as a deposit and withdrawal unit and a safe unit, and a lock mechanism is also used for the front door.
 従来の自動取引装置は、操作者によって叩かれた場合に、叩かれた衝撃が前扉のロック機構に伝わり、ロックが解除して前扉が開放してしまうという問題があった。自動取引装置が叩かれる場合とは、例えば、自動取引装置による処理が何らかの理由によって滞った場合(例えば故障した場合)や盗難を目的とした場合である。 The conventional automated teller machine has a problem that when it is hit by the operator, the hit impact is transmitted to the lock mechanism of the front door, and the lock is released to open the front door. The automatic transaction apparatus is beaten, for example, when the processing by the automatic transaction apparatus is delayed for some reason (for example, when it breaks down) or when it is intended for theft.
前扉のロック機構は、前扉や装置本体の筺体の近くに実装されるので、叩かれる位置から衝撃が伝わり易いため特に問題になる。前扉が開くと装置本体に収納される機構ユニットや金庫部が露出するので、防犯の観点から好ましくない。 Since the lock mechanism of the front door is mounted near the front door and the case body of the device body, it is particularly problematic because an impact can be easily transmitted from the hit position. When the front door is opened, the mechanical unit and the safe unit stored in the apparatus body are exposed, which is not preferable from the viewpoint of crime prevention.

The lock lever has a rotation restricting portion for restricting the movement to the open allowable position in the contact area with the limiter.

 図2を参照して、ロック機構10の構成について説明する。図2は、第一実施形態に係るロック機構10を説明するための図であり、図1の自動取引装置100のA-A断面を示す模式図である。ロック機構10は、ロックレバ2と、リミッタ3と、付勢部材4と、ロックレバ回動軸5と、を主に備える。
<< Configuration of Locking Mechanism According to First Embodiment >>
The configuration of the lock mechanism 10 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a view for explaining the lock mechanism 10 according to the first embodiment, and is a schematic view showing an AA cross section of the automatic transaction apparatus 100 of FIG. The lock mechanism 10 mainly includes a lock lever 2, a limiter 3, a biasing member 4, and a lock lever pivot shaft 5.
 ロックレバ回動軸5は、ロックレバ2を回動させる際の回転支点となる部材であり、前扉1の左側内部であって上下方向に配置されている。ロックレバ回動軸5は、少なくともその一部が前扉1に固定されており、前扉1の開閉動作に伴って前扉1とともに移動する。ここでのロックレバ回動軸5は、前扉1の回転中心軸C(図1参照)と平行に配設されている。 The lock lever rotation shaft 5 is a member serving as a rotation fulcrum when the lock lever 2 is rotated, and is disposed inside the left side of the front door 1 and in the vertical direction. At least a portion of the lock lever pivot shaft 5 is fixed to the front door 1 and moves together with the front door 1 as the front door 1 opens and closes. The lock lever rotation shaft 5 here is disposed in parallel with the rotation center axis C (see FIG. 1) of the front door 1.
 付勢部材4は、ロックレバ2に対して、リミッタ3へ近接する方向(図2のα1方向)に付勢力を常に付与するばねである。付勢部材4として用いるばねは、特段限定されるものではない。本実施形態の付勢部材4は、捩りコイルばねである。
 付勢部材4のコイル部41には、ロックレバ回動軸5が挿通される。付勢部材4の一端42は、前扉1の適所に係止される。付勢部材4の他端43は、ロックレバ2の一部に当接するように設置され、リミッタ3へ近接する方向(図2のα1方向)に付勢力を発生する。
The biasing member 4 is a spring that always applies a biasing force to the lock lever 2 in a direction (direction α1 in FIG. 2) close to the limiter 3. The spring used as the biasing member 4 is not particularly limited. The biasing member 4 of the present embodiment is a torsion coil spring.
The lock lever rotation shaft 5 is inserted into the coil portion 41 of the biasing member 4. One end 42 of the biasing member 4 is locked in place on the front door 1. The other end 43 of the biasing member 4 is installed to abut on a part of the lock lever 2 and generates a biasing force in a direction approaching the limiter 3 (direction α1 in FIG. 2).
 リミッタ3は、意図しない前扉1の開放を規制する装置本体6側の部材である。リミッタ3は、施錠されている状態で前扉1を開放しないようにするものであればよく、その形状や材質などは特段限定されるものではない。ここでのリミッタ3は、金属製の板状部材であり、装置本体6の左壁から内側に折り曲げて形成されている。リミッタ3は、第一屈曲部31と、第二屈曲部32と、を主に有している。なお、リミッタ3は、装置本体6とは別部材として製造され、ボルトなどの締結部材によって装置本体6に固定されてもよい。 The limiter 3 is a member on the side of the apparatus main body 6 that regulates the opening of the unintended front door 1. The limiter 3 is only required to prevent the front door 1 from being opened in the locked state, and the shape, the material, and the like are not particularly limited. The limiter 3 here is a plate-like member made of metal and is formed by being bent inward from the left wall of the apparatus main body 6. The limiter 3 mainly has a first bending portion 31 and a second bending portion 32. The limiter 3 may be manufactured as a separate member from the device body 6 and may be fixed to the device body 6 by a fastening member such as a bolt.
 第一屈曲部31は、装置本体6から連続して形成される部分であり、装置本体6の左壁から内側に延設している。第一屈曲部31は、装置本体6の左壁に直交している。第二屈曲部32は、第一屈曲部31から連続して形成される部分であり、第一屈曲部31の一端から後方に延設している。第二屈曲部32は、装置本体6の左壁に平行である。言い換えると、ここでの第二屈曲部32は、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に延設している。第二屈曲部32の後端32aは、ロックレバ2に当接する。 The first bending portion 31 is a portion continuously formed from the device body 6 and extends inward from the left wall of the device body 6. The first bending portion 31 is orthogonal to the left wall of the device body 6. The second bending portion 32 is a portion continuously formed from the first bending portion 31 and extends rearward from one end of the first bending portion 31. The second bent portion 32 is parallel to the left wall of the device body 6. In other words, the second bent portion 32 here extends in the opening / closing direction of the front door 1 (here, in the front-rear direction). The rear end 32 a of the second bending portion 32 abuts on the lock lever 2.
 ロックレバ2は、意図しない前扉1の開放を規制する前扉1側の部材であり、ロックレバ回動軸5を中心として回動可能である。ロックレバ2は、図示しない鍵機構の施錠動作に連動しており、施錠することによりロックレバ2はα1方向に回動し、開錠することによりロックレバ2はα2方向に回動する。つまり、ロックレバ2は、図2の実線で示す施錠された状態での位置から開錠されることで、図2の仮想線(二点鎖線)で示す位置まで移動する。施錠された状態(図2の実線で示す位置)のロックレバ2は、前扉1の開放動作を規制し、一方、開錠された状態(図2の仮想線で示す位置)のロックレバ2は、前扉1の開放動作を許容する。以下では、施錠されている状態におけるロックレバ2の位置(図2の実線で示す位置)を「開放規制位置」と呼び、開錠されている状態におけるロックレバ2の位置(図2の仮想線で示す位置)を「開放許容位置」と呼ぶ場合がある。 The lock lever 2 is a member on the front door 1 side that regulates unintended opening of the front door 1 and is rotatable around a lock lever rotation shaft 5. The lock lever 2 is interlocked with the locking operation of a key mechanism (not shown), and the lock lever 2 pivots in the α1 direction by locking and the lock lever 2 pivots in the α2 direction by unlocking. That is, the lock lever 2 is moved from the position in the locked state shown by the solid line in FIG. 2 to the position shown by the phantom line (two-dot chain line) in FIG. The lock lever 2 in the locked state (the position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2) regulates the opening operation of the front door 1, while the lock lever 2 in the unlocked state (the position shown by the phantom line in FIG. 2) is Allow the opening operation of the front door 1. Hereinafter, the position of the lock lever 2 in the locked state (the position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2) is referred to as the “release restricted position”, and the position of the lock lever 2 in the unlocked state (shown by the phantom line in FIG. Position) may be referred to as "open permitted position".
 ロックレバ2は、前扉1が施錠されている状態(図2の実線で示す開放規制位置)で前扉1を開放しないようにするものであればよく、その形状や材質などは特段限定されるものではない。ここでのロックレバ2は、金属製であり、先端が左方向(装置本体6の左壁に近接する方向)に突出した鉤状を呈している。具体的には、ここでのロックレバ2は、基端部21と、先端部22と、基端部21と先端部22とを連結する連結部23と、を主に有している。 The lock lever 2 is only required to prevent the front door 1 from being opened in the state where the front door 1 is locked (the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2), and its shape, material, etc. are particularly limited. It is not a thing. The lock lever 2 here is made of metal, and has a hook-like shape with its tip projecting leftward (in the direction approaching the left wall of the device body 6). Specifically, the lock lever 2 here mainly includes a proximal end 21, a distal end 22, and a connecting portion 23 that links the proximal end 21 and the distal end 22.
 基端部21は、ロックレバ回動軸5に取り付けられる部分である。基端部21の一部は切り欠いてあり、これにより平面視して略矩形の切欠き部21aが形成されている。切欠き部21aには、付勢部材4の他端43が挿入されている。 The base end portion 21 is a portion attached to the lock lever pivot shaft 5. A part of the base end portion 21 is cut away, whereby a substantially rectangular cutaway portion 21a is formed in plan view. The other end 43 of the biasing member 4 is inserted into the notch 21a.
 先端部22は、前扉1が施錠されている状態(図2の実線で示す開放規制位置)で前扉1を開放した場合に、リミッタ3と係合する部分である。ここでの先端部22は、平面視して略三角形状を呈しており、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後方に配置される。先端部22は、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後端32aに対向する対向面22aを有する。対向面22aは、開放規制位置において第二屈曲部32に直交する。言い換えると、対向面22aは、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に直交する直交平面(ここでは上下方向の線分と左右方向の線分とで構成される平面)に存在する。対向面22aの先端側には、凹部22bが形成されている。ここでの凹部22bは、平面視して円弧状を呈している。凹部22bの詳細は後記する。開放規制位置において、対向面22aとリミッタ3の後端32aとは当接していても当接していなくともどちらでもよい。 The front end portion 22 is a portion engaged with the limiter 3 when the front door 1 is opened in the state where the front door 1 is locked (the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2). The front end portion 22 here has a substantially triangular shape in plan view, and is disposed behind the limiter 3 at the opening restricted position. The front end portion 22 has an opposing surface 22 a that faces the rear end 32 a of the limiter 3 in the release restriction position. The opposing surface 22a is orthogonal to the second bending portion 32 at the open regulation position. In other words, the facing surface 22 a is present in an orthogonal plane (here, a plane formed by line segments in the vertical direction and line segments in the horizontal direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction (front and rear direction here) of the front door 1. The recessed part 22b is formed in the front end side of the opposing surface 22a. The recess 22 b here has an arc shape in plan view. Details of the recess 22b will be described later. In the open control position, the facing surface 22a and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 may or may not be in contact with each other.
 連結部23は、基端部21と先端部22とを連結する部分である。連結部23の形状や材質などは、特段限定されるものではない。ここでの連結部23は、基端部21及び先端部22に比較して平面視した幅が狭くなっている。開放規制位置において、連結部23とリミッタ3の第二屈曲部32とは当接していても当接していなくともどちらでもよい。 The connection portion 23 is a portion that connects the proximal end portion 21 and the distal end portion 22. The shape, material, and the like of the connecting portion 23 are not particularly limited. The connecting portion 23 here has a narrower width in plan view than the proximal end portion 21 and the distal end portion 22. In the opening restricting position, the connecting portion 23 and the second bent portion 32 of the limiter 3 may or may not be in contact with each other.
≪第一実施形態に係るロック機構の動作≫
<施錠状態での前扉の開放による動作>
 図2の実線で示す開放規制位置で前扉1が開放された場合(前扉1が前方に引っ張られた場合)に、先端部22の対向面22aとリミッタ3の後端32aとが当接し、前扉1の開放を規制する。以下では、対向面22aをリミッタ3との「当接領域」と呼ぶ場合がある。また、開放規制位置で前扉1が開放された場合に、リミッタ3の後端32aと当接する領域(ここでは対向面22aの根元側)を特に「第一当接領域M」と呼ぶ場合がある。
<< Operation of Locking Mechanism According to First Embodiment >>
<Operation by opening the front door in the locked state>
When the front door 1 is opened at the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2 (when the front door 1 is pulled forward), the opposing surface 22a of the front end 22 abuts on the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 , Regulate the opening of the front door 1. Hereinafter, the facing surface 22 a may be referred to as a “contact region” with the limiter 3. Further, when the front door 1 is opened at the opening restriction position, a region in contact with the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 (here, the base side of the facing surface 22a) may be particularly referred to as a "first contact region M" is there.
<施錠状態での衝撃の付与による動作>
 図3に示すように、開放規制位置において、先端部22の対向面22aとリミッタ3の後端32aとを接触させた状態で装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加える場合を想定する。ここで、先端部22の対向面22aとリミッタ3の後端32aとを接触させた状態とは、例えば、前扉1を前方に引っ張った状態である。また、連続した衝撃Pとは、例えば、故障時などに操作者が装置本体6や前扉1を連続して手で叩くことにより発生する衝撃である。
<Operation by application of impact in locked state>
As shown in FIG. 3, it is assumed that a continuous impact P is applied to the apparatus main body 6 in a state in which the facing surface 22 a of the tip end portion 22 and the rear end 32 a of the limiter 3 are in contact in the open control position. Here, the state in which the facing surface 22a of the leading end 22 and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 are in a state in which the front door 1 is pulled forward, for example. Further, the continuous impact P is, for example, an impact generated when an operator continuously strikes the apparatus main body 6 or the front door 1 with a hand at the time of failure or the like.
 装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えることにより、リミッタ3には振動が起こる。リミッタ3に発生した振動、及び対向面22aと後端32aとの摩擦によって、ロックレバ2とリミッタ3との当接位置が徐々に先端部22の先端側(凹部22bが形成される側)に移動する。これにより、ロックレバ2は付勢部材4の付勢力に抗してα2方向に回動する。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加え続けた場合に、図4に示すように、リミッタ3の後端32aが凹部22bにはまることで係止し、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2は回動しなくなる。前扉1に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合も同様である。 Vibration is generated in the limiter 3 by applying a continuous impact P to the device body 6. The contact position between the lock lever 2 and the limiter 3 gradually moves to the tip side of the tip 22 (the side where the recess 22 b is formed) by the vibration generated in the limiter 3 and the friction between the opposing surface 22 a and the rear end 32 a. Do. Thereby, the lock lever 2 rotates in the α2 direction against the biasing force of the biasing member 4. Then, when the continuous impact P is continuously applied to the device main body 6, as shown in FIG. 4, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is engaged with the recess 22b, and the lock lever 2 is locked even if the impact P is applied. It will not rotate. The same applies to the case where a continuous impact P is applied to the front door 1.
 つまり、凹部22bは、リミッタ3及びロックレバ2の少なくとも何れか一方に起こった振動を原因とするロックレバ2の回動を規制する役割を担うものである。以下では、ロックレバ2の対向面22a(当接領域)に形成された凹部22bを「回動規制部」と呼ぶ場合がある。また、振動を原因としてリミッタ3の後端32aが当接する対向面22aの領域(ここでは対向面22aの根元側以外)を特に「第二当接領域N」と呼ぶ場合がある。ここでは、第一当接領域Mと第二当接領域Nとは隣接しており、第二当接領域Nに凹部22bが形成されている。 That is, the recess 22 b plays a role of restricting the rotation of the lock lever 2 caused by the vibration occurring in at least one of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2. Below, the recessed part 22b formed in the opposing surface 22a (contact area | region) of the lock lever 2 may be called a "rotation control part." In addition, the area of the facing surface 22a (herein other than the root side of the facing surface 22a) where the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 contacts due to the vibration may be particularly referred to as a "second contact region N". Here, the first contact area M and the second contact area N are adjacent to each other, and a recess 22 b is formed in the second contact area N.
 ロックレバ2の凹部22bは、リミッタ3及びロックレバ2の少なくとも何れか一方に起こった振動を原因とするロックレバ2の回動を規制するものであればよく、その形状・第二当接領域N内での位置・数・サイズなどは特段限定されるものではない。なお、本実施形態のように、対向面22aの先端側に凹部22bを形成することで、各部品の部品精度に多少のばらつきがあったとしても、確実にリミッタ3の後端32aとロックレバ2の凹部22bとを係止させることができる。また、本実施形態のように、凹部22bを平面視して円弧状にすることで、リミッタ3の後端32aと凹部22bとが係止した後において、ロックレバ2を比較的容易に図2に示す開放規制位置に戻すことができる。ロックレバ2を開放規制位置に戻すには、例えば、前扉1を後方に押し込んだり、施錠する方向に鍵を回すことで、リミッタ3の後端32aと凹部22bとが係止した状態を解消させる。これにより、ロックレバ2は付勢部材4の付勢力によってα1方向に回動し、図2に示す開放規制位置に移動する。 The recess 22 b of the lock lever 2 may be any one that restricts rotation of the lock lever 2 caused by vibration occurring in at least one of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2, and its shape in the second contact area N The position, number, size, etc. of are not particularly limited. As in the present embodiment, by forming the recess 22b on the tip end side of the facing surface 22a, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2 can be reliably ensured even if there is some variation in the component accuracy of each component. Can be locked with the recess 22b. Further, as in the present embodiment, by forming the concave portion 22b in an arc shape in plan view, after the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 and the concave portion 22b are locked, the lock lever 2 can be relatively easily illustrated in FIG. It can be returned to the open regulation position shown. In order to return the lock lever 2 to the open regulation position, for example, the state where the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 and the recess 22b are locked is eliminated by pushing the front door 1 backward or turning the key in the locking direction. . Thus, the lock lever 2 is pivoted in the α1 direction by the biasing force of the biasing member 4 and is moved to the open regulation position shown in FIG.
 以上のように、第一実施形態に係るロック機構10は、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2の対向面22aに回動規制部としての凹部22bが形成されている。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合でも、凹部22bにリミッタ3の後端32aが係止し、ロックレバ2の回動が規制される。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10の解除を防ぐことができる。 As described above, in the lock mechanism 10 according to the first embodiment, the recess 22 b as a rotation restricting portion is formed on the facing surface 22 a of the lock lever 2 facing the rear end 32 a of the limiter 3. Then, even when a continuous impact P is applied to the apparatus main body 6, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is locked in the recess 22b, and the rotation of the lock lever 2 is restricted. Therefore, the release of the lock mechanism 10 due to the application of the continuous impact P can be prevented.
[第二実施形態]
≪第二実施形態に係るロック機構の構成≫
 図5を参照して、第二実施形態に係るロック機構10Aの構成について説明する。ロック機構10Aは、ロックレバ2Aと、リミッタ3と、付勢部材4と、ロックレバ回動軸5と、を主に備える。本実施形態では、ロックレバ2Aの構成が第一実施形態と相違するため、相違する部分を中心に説明する。
Second Embodiment
<< Configuration of Locking Mechanism According to Second Embodiment >>
The configuration of the lock mechanism 10A according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The lock mechanism 10A mainly includes a lock lever 2A, a limiter 3, a biasing member 4, and a lock lever pivot shaft 5. In the present embodiment, since the configuration of the lock lever 2A is different from that of the first embodiment, the differences will be mainly described.
 ロックレバ2Aは、先端部22Aの構成が第一実施形態のロックレバ2と相違する。先端部22Aは、前扉1が施錠されている状態(図5の実線で示す開放規制位置)で前扉1を開放した場合に、リミッタ3と係合する部分である。ここでの先端部22Aは、平面視して略三角形状を呈しており、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後方に配置される。先端部22Aは、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後端32aに対向する対向面22Aaを有する。先端部22Aは、平面視して先端側が前方に傾いている。そのため、対向面22Aaは、開放規制位置において第二屈曲部32に直交しておらず、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に直交する直交平面(ここでは上下方向の線分と左右方向の線分とで構成される平面)に対して傾斜している。つまり、ここでの対向面22Aaは、前扉1の開閉方向に直交する直交平面に対して傾斜している傾斜部である。開放規制位置において、対向面22Aaとリミッタ3の後端32aとは当接していても当接していなくともどちらでもよい。 The lock lever 2A is different from the lock lever 2 of the first embodiment in the configuration of the tip 22A. The front end portion 22A is a portion engaged with the limiter 3 when the front door 1 is opened in a state where the front door 1 is locked (the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 5). The tip portion 22A here has a substantially triangular shape in a plan view, and is disposed behind the limiter 3 at the opening restricted position. The front end portion 22A has an opposing surface 22Aa that opposes the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 in the release restricted position. The distal end portion 22A is inclined forward in a plan view. Therefore, the facing surface 22Aa is not orthogonal to the second bending portion 32 at the opening restriction position, and is perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front door 1 (here, the front-rear direction). It is inclined with respect to the plane defined by the line segments of the direction). That is, the opposing surface 22Aa here is an inclined portion which is inclined with respect to an orthogonal plane orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front door 1. In the open regulation position, the facing surface 22Aa and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 may or may not be in contact with each other.
≪第二実施形態に係るロック機構の動作≫
<施錠状態での前扉の開放による動作>
 図5の実線で示す開放規制位置で前扉1が開放された場合(前扉1が前方に引っ張られた場合)に、ロックレバ2Aの先端部22Aの対向面22Aaとリミッタ3の後端32aとが当接し、前扉1の開放を規制する。
<< Operation of Locking Mechanism According to Second Embodiment >>
<Operation by opening the front door in the locked state>
When the front door 1 is opened at the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 5 (when the front door 1 is pulled forward), the facing surface 22Aa of the front end 22A of the lock lever 2A and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 Contacts and regulates the opening of the front door 1.
<施錠状態での衝撃の付与による動作>
 開放規制位置において、先端部22Aの対向面22Aaとリミッタ3の後端32aとを接触させた状態で装置本体6に連続した衝撃P(図3参照)を加える場合を想定する。装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えることにより、リミッタ3には振動が起こる。リミッタ3に発生した振動、及び対向面22Aaと後端32aとの摩擦によって、ロックレバ2Aとリミッタ3との当接位置が徐々に先端部22Aの先端側に移動する。これにより、ロックレバ2Aは付勢部材4の付勢力に抗してα2方向に回動する。しかしながら、対向面22Aaは傾斜しており、対向面22Aaと後端32aとが接触することでロックレバ2Aが開放規制位置に向かう方向(α1方向)へ力が働く。そのため、図6に示すように、衝撃を与えてもロックレバ2Aは所定の位置で回動が停止する。前扉1に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合も同様である。
<Operation by application of impact in locked state>
In the open regulation position, it is assumed that a continuous impact P (see FIG. 3) is applied to the apparatus main body 6 in a state in which the facing surface 22Aa of the tip 22A and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 are in contact. Vibration is generated in the limiter 3 by applying a continuous impact P to the device body 6. The contact position between the lock lever 2A and the limiter 3 gradually moves to the tip side of the tip 22A due to the vibration generated in the limiter 3 and the friction between the facing surface 22Aa and the rear end 32a. Thereby, the lock lever 2A rotates in the α2 direction against the biasing force of the biasing member 4. However, the opposing surface 22Aa is inclined, and the contact of the opposing surface 22Aa with the rear end 32a causes a force to act in the direction (α1 direction) in which the lock lever 2A is directed to the release restriction position. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, even when an impact is applied, the rotation of the lock lever 2A is stopped at a predetermined position. The same applies to the case where a continuous impact P is applied to the front door 1.
 つまり、傾斜した対向面22Aaは、リミッタ3及びロックレバ2Aの少なくとも何れか一方に起こった振動を原因とするロックレバ2Aの回動を規制する役割を担うものである。以下では、ロックレバ2Aに形成された傾斜した対向面22Aaを「回動規制部」と呼ぶ場合がある。ここでは対向面22Aaの全領域が傾斜しているが、対向面22Aaに形成される傾斜は、少なくとも第二当接領域Nに形成されていればよい。 That is, the inclined facing surface 22Aa plays a role of restricting the rotation of the lock lever 2A caused by the vibration generated in at least one of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2A. Hereinafter, the inclined opposite surface 22Aa formed on the lock lever 2A may be referred to as a "rotation restricting portion". Here, the entire area of the facing surface 22Aa is inclined, but the inclination formed on the facing surface 22Aa may be at least formed in the second contact area N.
 以上のように、第二実施形態に係るロック機構10Aは、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2Aの対向面22Aaが傾斜している。そして、対向面22Aaと後端32aとが接触することでロックレバ2Aが開放規制位置に向かう方向(α1方向)へ力が働く。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Aの解除を防ぐことができる。 As described above, in the lock mechanism 10A according to the second embodiment, the facing surface 22Aa of the lock lever 2A facing the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is inclined. Then, when the opposing surface 22Aa and the rear end 32a come into contact with each other, a force acts in the direction (α1 direction) in which the lock lever 2A is directed to the release control position. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the release of the lock mechanism 10A by applying the continuous impact P.
[第三実施形態]
≪第三実施形態に係るロック機構の構成≫
 図7を参照して、第三実施形態に係るロック機構10Bの構成について説明する。ロック機構10Bは、ロックレバ2Bと、リミッタ3と、付勢部材4と、ロックレバ回動軸5と、を主に備える。本実施形態では、ロックレバ2Bの構成が第一実施形態と相違するため、相違する部分を中心に説明する。
Third Embodiment
<< Configuration of Locking Mechanism According to Third Embodiment >>
The configuration of the lock mechanism 10B according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The lock mechanism 10B mainly includes a lock lever 2B, a limiter 3, a biasing member 4, and a lock lever pivot shaft 5. In the present embodiment, since the configuration of the lock lever 2B is different from that of the first embodiment, the difference will be mainly described.
 ロックレバ2Bは、先端部22Bの構成が第一実施形態のロックレバ2と相違する。先端部22Bは、前扉1が施錠されている状態(図7の実線で示す開放規制位置)で前扉1を開放した場合に、リミッタ3と係合する部分である。ここでの先端部22Bは、平面視して略三角形状を呈しており、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後方に配置される。先端部22Bは、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後端32aに対向する根元側対向面22Ba及び先端部22Bの先端側に形成される先端側対向面22Bcを有する。根元側対向面22Baは、開放規制位置において第二屈曲部32に直交する。言い換えると、根元側対向面22Baは、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に直交する直交平面(ここでは上下方向の線分と左右方向の線分とで構成される平面)に存在する。先端側対向面22Bcは、開放規制位置において第二屈曲部32に直交しておらず、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に直交する直交平面(ここでは上下方向の線分と左右方向の線分とで構成される平面)に対して傾斜している。つまり、ここでの先端側対向面22Bcは、前扉1の開閉方向に直交する直交平面に対して傾斜している傾斜部である。 The lock lever 2B is different from the lock lever 2 of the first embodiment in the configuration of the tip 22B. The front end portion 22B is a portion engaged with the limiter 3 when the front door 1 is opened in a state where the front door 1 is locked (the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 7). The tip portion 22B here has a substantially triangular shape in a plan view, and is disposed behind the limiter 3 at the open regulation position. The distal end portion 22B has a root side opposing surface 22Ba that faces the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 in the opening restricted position, and a distal end side opposing surface 22Bc formed on the distal end side of the distal end portion 22B. The base-side facing surface 22Ba is orthogonal to the second bending portion 32 in the release restriction position. In other words, the root-side facing surface 22Ba is present in an orthogonal plane (here, a plane formed by line segments in the vertical direction and line segments in the horizontal direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front door 1 (here, the front-rear direction). Do. The front end side facing surface 22Bc is not orthogonal to the second bending portion 32 at the opening restriction position, and is a perpendicular plane (here, the line segment in the vertical direction and the left and right direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front door 1 It is inclined with respect to the plane defined by the line segments of the direction). That is, the front end side facing surface 22Bc here is an inclined portion which is inclined with respect to an orthogonal plane orthogonal to the opening and closing direction of the front door 1.
 また、根元側対向面22Baと先端側対向面22Bcとの間には凹部22Bbが形成されている。つまり、先端部22Bは、凹部22Bbを境にして先端側が前方に傾いている。ここでの凹部22Bbは、平面視して円弧状を呈している。開放規制位置において、根元側対向面22Baとリミッタ3の後端32aとは当接していても当接していなくともどちらでもよい。 Further, a recess 22Bb is formed between the base side facing surface 22Ba and the tip side facing surface 22Bc. That is, the tip end side of the tip end portion 22B is inclined forward with the recess 22Bb as a boundary. The recess 22Bb here has an arc shape in plan view. In the release restriction position, the base side facing surface 22Ba and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 may or may not be in contact with each other.
≪第三実施形態に係るロック機構の動作≫
<施錠状態での前扉の開放による動作>
 図7の実線で示す開放規制位置で前扉1が開放された場合(前扉1が前方に引っ張られた場合)に、ロックレバ2Bの先端部22Bの根元側対向面22Baとリミッタ3の後端32aとが当接し、前扉1の開放を規制する。
<< Operation of Locking Mechanism According to Third Embodiment >>
<Operation by opening the front door in the locked state>
When the front door 1 is opened at the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 7 (when the front door 1 is pulled forward), the root side facing surface 22Ba of the distal end portion 22B of the lock lever 2B and the rear end of the limiter 3 32a abuts and regulates the opening of the front door 1.
<施錠状態での衝撃の付与による動作>
 開放規制位置において、先端部22Bの根元側対向面22Baとリミッタ3の後端32aとを接触させた状態で装置本体6に連続した衝撃P(図3参照)を加える場合を想定する。装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えることにより、リミッタ3には振動が起こる。リミッタ3に発生した振動、及び根元側対向面22Baと後端32aとの摩擦によって、ロックレバ2Bとリミッタ3との当接位置が徐々に先端部22Bの先端側に移動する。これにより、ロックレバ2Bは付勢部材4の付勢力に抗してα2方向に回動する。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加え続けた場合に、図8に示すように、リミッタ3の後端32aが凹部22Bbにはまることで係止し、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2は回動しなくなる。
<Operation by application of impact in locked state>
It is assumed that a continuous impact P (see FIG. 3) is applied to the apparatus main body 6 in a state in which the base-side facing surface 22Ba of the distal end portion 22B and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 are in contact in the open control position. Vibration is generated in the limiter 3 by applying a continuous impact P to the device body 6. The contact position between the lock lever 2B and the limiter 3 gradually moves to the tip side of the tip 22B by the vibration generated in the limiter 3 and the friction between the base side facing surface 22Ba and the rear end 32a. Thereby, the lock lever 2B rotates in the α2 direction against the biasing force of the biasing member 4. Then, when the continuous impact P is continuously applied to the apparatus main body 6, as shown in FIG. 8, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is engaged by being fitted in the recess 22Bb, and the lock lever 2 It will not rotate.
 また、何らかの理由によりリミッタ3の後端32aが凹部22Bbに引っかからなかった場合や後端32aが凹部22Bbから外れてしまった場合でも、先端側対向面22Bcは傾斜している。そのため、先端側対向面22Bcと後端32aとが接触することでロックレバ2Bが開放規制位置に向かう方向(α1方向)へ力が働き、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2Bは回動しなくなる。前扉1に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合も同様である。 Further, even if the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is not caught in the recess 22Bb or the rear end 32a is detached from the recess 22Bb for some reason, the tip side facing surface 22Bc is inclined. Therefore, the contact between the front end facing surface 22Bc and the rear end 32a causes the lock lever 2B to exert a force in the direction (α1 direction) toward the release control position, and the lock lever 2B does not rotate even if an impact P is applied. The same applies to the case where a continuous impact P is applied to the front door 1.
 つまり、凹部22Bb及び傾斜した先端側対向面22Bcは、リミッタ3及びロックレバ2Bの少なくとも何れか一方に起こった振動を原因とするロックレバ2Bの回動を規制する役割を担うものである。以下では、ロックレバ2Bの根元側対向面22Ba(当接領域)に形成された凹部22Bb及び傾斜した先端側対向面22Bcを「回動規制部」と呼ぶ場合がある。凹部22Bb及び傾斜した先端側対向面22Bcは、少なくとも第二当接領域Nに形成されていればよい。凹部22Bbは、その形状・第二当接領域N内での位置・数・サイズなどは特段限定されるものではない。また、ここでは凹部22Bbと先端側対向面22Bcとが連続して形成されているが、距離を置いて形成されてもよい。 That is, the recess 22Bb and the inclined distal end side facing surface 22Bc play a role of restricting the rotation of the lock lever 2B caused by the vibration occurring in at least one of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2B. Below, concave part 22Bb and inclined tip side opposing surface 22Bc formed in root side opposing surface 22Ba (contact area) of lock lever 2B may be called a "rotation control part." The recess 22 </ b> Bb and the inclined distal side facing surface 22 </ b> Bc may be formed at least in the second contact area N. The shape, the position, the number, the size, and the like of the recess 22Bb in the second contact region N are not particularly limited. Further, although the recess 22Bb and the tip side facing surface 22Bc are formed continuously here, they may be formed at a distance.
 以上のように、第三実施形態に係るロック機構10Bは、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2Bの根元側対向面22Baに回動規制部としての凹部22Bbが形成されている。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合でも、凹部22Bbにリミッタ3の後端32aが係止し、ロックレバ2の回動が規制される。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Bの解除を防ぐことができる。
 また、第三実施形態に係るロック機構10Bは、何らかの理由によりリミッタ3の後端32aが凹部22Bbに引っかからなかった場合でも、先端側対向面22Bcは傾斜している。そして、先端側対向面22Bcと後端32aとが接触することでロックレバ2Bが開放規制位置に向かう方向(α1方向)へ力が働く。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Bの解除をより確実に防ぐことができる。
As described above, in the lock mechanism 10B according to the third embodiment, the recess 22Bb as the rotation restricting portion is formed in the base-side facing surface 22Ba of the lock lever 2B facing the rear end 32a of the limiter 3. Then, even when a continuous impact P is applied to the apparatus main body 6, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is locked in the recess 22Bb, and the rotation of the lock lever 2 is restricted. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the release of the lock mechanism 10B by applying the continuous impact P.
Further, in the lock mechanism 10B according to the third embodiment, even if the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is not caught in the recess 22Bb for any reason, the tip side facing surface 22Bc is inclined. The contact between the front end facing surface 22Bc and the rear end 32a causes a force to act in the direction (α1 direction) of the lock lever 2B toward the release restriction position. Therefore, the release of the lock mechanism 10B due to the application of the continuous impact P can be more reliably prevented.
[第四実施形態]
≪第四実施形態に係るロック機構の構成≫
 図9を参照して、第四実施形態に係るロック機構10Cの構成について説明する。ロック機構10Cは、ロックレバ2Cと、リミッタ3と、付勢部材4と、ロックレバ回動軸5と、を主に備える。本実施形態では、ロックレバ2Cの構成が第一実施形態と相違するため、相違する部分を中心に説明する。
Fourth Embodiment
<< Configuration of Locking Mechanism According to Fourth Embodiment >>
The configuration of a lock mechanism 10C according to the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The lock mechanism 10C mainly includes a lock lever 2C, a limiter 3, a biasing member 4, and a lock lever pivot shaft 5. In the present embodiment, since the configuration of the lock lever 2C is different from that of the first embodiment, the different portions will be mainly described.
 ロックレバ2Cは、先端部22Cの構成が第一実施形態のロックレバ2と相違する。先端部22Cは、前扉1が施錠されている状態(図9の実線で示す開放規制位置)で前扉1を開放した場合に、リミッタ3と係合する部分である。ここでの先端部22Cは、平面視して略三角形状を呈しており、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後方に配置される。先端部22Cは、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後端32aに対向する対向面22Caを有する。対向面22Caは、開放規制位置において第二屈曲部32に直交する。言い換えると、対向面22Caは、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に直交する直交平面(ここでは上下方向の線分と左右方向の線分とで構成される平面)に存在する。対向面22Caの先端側には、凸部22Cbが形成されている。これにより、先端部22Cは、鉤状を呈している。開放規制位置において、対向面22Caとリミッタ3の後端32aとは当接していても当接していなくともどちらでもよい。 The lock lever 2C is different from the lock lever 2 of the first embodiment in the configuration of the tip 22C. The front end portion 22C is a portion engaged with the limiter 3 when the front door 1 is opened in a state where the front door 1 is locked (the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 9). The tip portion 22C here has a substantially triangular shape in plan view, and is disposed behind the limiter 3 at the opening restricted position. The front end portion 22C has an opposing surface 22Ca that opposes the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 in the release restriction position. The opposing surface 22Ca is orthogonal to the second bending portion 32 in the release restriction position. In other words, the facing surface 22Ca is present in an orthogonal plane (here, a plane formed by line segments in the vertical direction and line segments in the left-right direction) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction of the front door 1 (here, the front-rear direction). Convex part 22Cb is formed in the tip side of opposed face 22Ca. Thus, the tip 22C has a bowl shape. In the open regulation position, the facing surface 22Ca and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 may or may not be in contact with each other.

<Operation by opening the front door in the locked state>
When the front door 1 is opened at the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 9 (when the front door 1 is pulled forward), the facing surface 22Ca of the front end 22C of the lock lever 2C and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 Contacts and regulates the opening of the front door 1.
<施錠状態での衝撃の付与による動作>
 開放規制位置において、先端部22Cの対向面22Caとリミッタ3の後端32aとを接触させた状態で装置本体6に連続した衝撃P(図3参照)を加える場合を想定する。装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えることにより、リミッタ3には振動が起こる。リミッタ3に発生した振動、及び対向面22Caと後端32aとの摩擦によって、ロックレバ2Cとリミッタ3との当接位置が徐々に先端部22Cの先端側に移動する。これにより、ロックレバ2Cは付勢部材4の付勢力に抗してα2方向に回動する。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加え続けた場合に、図10に示すように、リミッタ3の後端32aが凸部22Cbに引っかかることで係止し、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2Cは回動しなくなる。前扉1に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合も同様である。
<Operation by application of impact in locked state>
In the open regulation position, it is assumed that a continuous impact P (see FIG. 3) is applied to the apparatus main body 6 in a state in which the opposing surface 22Ca of the tip 22C and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 are in contact. Vibration is generated in the limiter 3 by applying a continuous impact P to the device body 6. The contact position between the lock lever 2C and the limiter 3 gradually moves to the tip side of the tip 22C due to the vibration generated in the limiter 3 and the friction between the facing surface 22Ca and the rear end 32a. Thereby, the lock lever 2C rotates in the α2 direction against the biasing force of the biasing member 4. Then, when the continuous impact P is continuously applied to the device main body 6, as shown in FIG. 10, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is engaged by being caught by the convex portion 22Cb, and the lock lever 2C is locked even if the impact P is applied. Will not rotate. The same applies to the case where a continuous impact P is applied to the front door 1.
 つまり、凸部22Cbは、リミッタ3及びロックレバ2Cの少なくとも何れか一方に起こった振動を原因とするロックレバ2Cの回動を規制する役割を担うものである。以下では、リミッタ3の対向面22Ca(当接領域)に形成された凸部22Cbを「回動規制部」と呼ぶ場合がある。凸部22Cbは、少なくとも第二当接領域Nに形成されていればよい。凸部22Cbは、その形状・第二当接領域N内での位置・数・サイズなどは特段限定されるものではない。 That is, the convex portion 22Cb plays a role of restricting the rotation of the lock lever 2C caused by the vibration generated in at least one of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2C. Below, convex part 22Cb formed in opposing surface 22Ca (contact area) of limiter 3 may be called a "rotation control part." The convex portion 22Cb may be formed at least in the second contact area N. The shape, the position, the number, the size, and the like of the convex portion 22Cb in the second contact region N are not particularly limited.
 以上のように、第四実施形態に係るロック機構10Cは、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2Cの対向面22Caに回動規制部としての凸部22Cbが形成されている。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合でも、凸部22Cbにリミッタ3の後端32aが係止し、ロックレバ2Cの回動が規制される。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Cの解除を防ぐことができる。 As described above, in the lock mechanism 10C according to the fourth embodiment, the convex portion 22Cb as the rotation restricting portion is formed on the facing surface 22Ca of the lock lever 2C facing the rear end 32a of the limiter 3. Then, even when a continuous impact P is applied to the device body 6, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is engaged with the convex portion 22Cb, and the rotation of the lock lever 2C is restricted. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the release of the lock mechanism 10C by applying the continuous impact P.
[第五実施形態]
≪第五実施形態に係るロック機構の構成≫
 図11を参照して、第五実施形態に係るロック機構10Dの構成について説明する。ロック機構10Dは、ロックレバ2Dと、リミッタ3と、付勢部材4と、ロックレバ回動軸5と、を主に備える。本実施形態では、ロックレバ2Dの構成が第一実施形態と相違するため、相違する部分を中心に説明する。
Fifth Embodiment
<< Configuration of Locking Mechanism According to Fifth Embodiment >>
The configuration of the lock mechanism 10D according to the fifth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The lock mechanism 10D mainly includes a lock lever 2D, a limiter 3, a biasing member 4, and a lock lever pivot shaft 5. In the present embodiment, since the configuration of the lock lever 2D is different from that of the first embodiment, the difference will be mainly described.
 ロックレバ2Dは、先端部22Dの構成が第一実施形態のロックレバ2と相違する。先端部22Dは、前扉1が施錠されている状態(図11の実線で示す開放規制位置)で前扉1を開放した場合に、リミッタ3と係合する部分である。ここでの先端部22Dは、平面視して略三角形状を呈しており、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後方に配置される。先端部22Dは、開放規制位置においてリミッタ3の後端32aに対向する対向面22Daを有する。先端部22Dは、平面視して先端側が前方に傾いている。そのため、対向面22Daは、開放規制位置において第二屈曲部32に直交しておらず、前扉1の開閉方向(ここでは前後方向)に直交する直交平面(ここでは上下方向の線分と左右方向の線分とで構成される平面)に対して傾斜している。つまり、ここでの対向面22Daは、前扉1の開閉方向に直交する直交平面に対して傾斜している傾斜部である。対向面22Daの先端側には、凸部22Dbが形成されている。これにより、先端部22Dは、鉤状を呈している。開放規制位置において、対向面22Daとリミッタ3の後端32aとは当接していても当接していなくともどちらでもよい。 The lock lever 2D is different from the lock lever 2 of the first embodiment in the configuration of the tip 22D. The front end portion 22D is a portion engaged with the limiter 3 when the front door 1 is opened in a state where the front door 1 is locked (the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 11). The tip portion 22D here has a substantially triangular shape in a plan view, and is disposed behind the limiter 3 at the opening restricted position. The front end portion 22D has an opposing surface 22Da that faces the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 in the release restriction position. The front end portion of the front end portion 22D is inclined forward in plan view. Therefore, the facing surface 22Da is not orthogonal to the second bending portion 32 at the opening restriction position, and is perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the front door 1 (here, the front and rear direction). It is inclined with respect to the plane defined by the line segments of the direction). That is, opposing surface 22Da here is an inclination part which inclines with respect to the orthogonal plane orthogonal to the opening and closing direction of the front door 1. FIG. A convex portion 22Db is formed on the tip end side of the facing surface 22Da. Thereby, tip part 22D is exhibiting bowl shape. In the open regulation position, the facing surface 22Da and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 may or may not be in contact with each other.
≪第五実施形態に係るロック機構の動作≫
<施錠状態での前扉の開放による動作>
 図11の実線で示す開放規制位置で前扉1が開放された場合(前扉1が前方に引っ張られた場合)に、ロックレバ2Dの先端部22Dの対向面22Daとリミッタ3の後端32aとが当接し、前扉1の開放を規制する。
<< Operation of Locking Mechanism According to Fifth Embodiment >>
<Operation by opening the front door in the locked state>
When the front door 1 is opened at the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 11 (when the front door 1 is pulled forward), the facing surface 22Da of the front end 22D of the lock lever 2D and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 Contacts and regulates the opening of the front door 1.
<施錠状態での衝撃の付与による動作>
 開放規制位置において、先端部22Dの対向面22Daとリミッタ3の後端32aとを接触させた状態で装置本体6に連続した衝撃P(図3参照)を加える場合を想定する。装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えることにより、リミッタ3には振動が起こる。リミッタ3に発生した振動、及び対向面22Daと後端32aとの摩擦によって、ロックレバ2Dとリミッタ3との当接位置が徐々に先端部22Dの先端側に移動する。これにより、ロックレバ2Dは付勢部材4の付勢力に抗してα2方向に回動する。しかしながら、対向面22Daは傾斜しており、対向面22Daと後端32aとが接触することでロックレバ2Dが開放規制位置に向かう方向(α1方向)へ力が働く。そのため、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2は所定の位置で回動が停止する。
<Operation by application of impact in locked state>
It is assumed that a continuous impact P (see FIG. 3) is applied to the apparatus main body 6 in a state in which the facing surface 22Da of the leading end 22D and the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 are in contact at the open control position. Vibration is generated in the limiter 3 by applying a continuous impact P to the device body 6. The contact position between the lock lever 2D and the limiter 3 is gradually moved to the tip side of the tip 22D by the vibration generated in the limiter 3 and the friction between the facing surface 22Da and the rear end 32a. Thereby, the lock lever 2D rotates in the α2 direction against the biasing force of the biasing member 4. However, the opposing surface 22Da is inclined, and the contact of the opposing surface 22Da with the rear end 32a causes a force to act in the direction (α1 direction) in which the lock lever 2D is directed to the release restriction position. Therefore, even if an impact P is applied, the rotation of the lock lever 2 is stopped at a predetermined position.
 また、何らかの理由によりリミッタ3の後端32aと対向面22Daとが当接する位置が外側に移動し続ける場合でも、図12に示すように、リミッタ3の後端32aが凸部22Dbに引っかかることで係止し、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2Dは回動しなくなる。前扉1に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合も同様である。 Further, even if the position where the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 and the facing surface 22D abut each other continues to move outward due to any reason, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is caught on the convex portion 22Db as shown in FIG. The locking lever 2D does not rotate even if it is locked and an impact P is applied. The same applies to the case where a continuous impact P is applied to the front door 1.
 つまり、傾斜した対向面22Da及び凸部22Dbは、リミッタ3及びロックレバ2Dの少なくとも何れか一方に起こった振動を原因とするロックレバ2Dの回動を規制する役割を担うものである。以下では、ロックレバ2Dに形成された傾斜した対向面22Da及び対向面22Daに形成された凸部22Dbを「回動規制部」と呼ぶ場合がある。傾斜した対向面22Da及び凸部22Dbは、少なくとも第二当接領域Nに形成されていればよい。凸部22Dbは、その形状・第二当接領域N内での位置・数・サイズなどは特段限定されるものではない。 That is, the inclined facing surface 22Da and the convex portion 22Db play a role of restricting the rotation of the lock lever 2D caused by the vibration occurring in at least one of the limiter 3 and the lock lever 2D. Hereinafter, the inclined opposing surface 22Da formed on the lock lever 2D and the convex portion 22Db formed on the opposing surface 22Da may be referred to as a "rotation restricting portion". The inclined facing surface 22Da and the convex portion 22Db may be formed at least in the second contact area N. The shape, the position, the number, the size, and the like of the convex portion 22Db are not particularly limited.
 以上のように、第五実施形態に係るロック機構10Dは、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2Dの対向面22Daが傾斜している。そして、対向面22Daと後端32aとが接触することでロックレバ2Dが開放規制位置に向かう方向(α1方向)へ力が働く。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Dの解除を防ぐことができる。
 また、第五実施形態に係るロック機構10Dは、何らかの理由によりリミッタ3の後端32aと対向面22Daとが当接する位置が外側に移動した場合でも、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2Dの対向面22Daに回動規制部としての凸部22Dbが形成されている。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合でも、凸部22Dbにリミッタ3の後端32aが係止し、ロックレバ2Dの回動が規制される。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Dの解除を防ぐことができる。
As described above, in the lock mechanism 10D according to the fifth embodiment, the facing surface 22Da of the lock lever 2D facing the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is inclined. Then, when the opposing surface 22Da and the rear end 32a come into contact with each other, a force acts in a direction (α1 direction) in which the lock lever 2D moves to the release control position. Therefore, the release of the lock mechanism 10D due to the application of the continuous impact P can be prevented.
In the lock mechanism 10D according to the fifth embodiment, the lock lever 2D facing the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 even when the position where the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 abuts the opposing surface 22Da moves outward for any reason The convex part 22Db as a rotation control part is formed in the opposing surface 22Da. Then, even when a continuous impact P is applied to the apparatus body 6, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is engaged with the convex portion 22Db, and the rotation of the lock lever 2D is restricted. Therefore, the release of the lock mechanism 10D due to the application of the continuous impact P can be prevented.
[変形例]
 以上、本発明の各実施形態について説明したが、本発明はこれに限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲の趣旨を変えない範囲で実施することができる。
[Modification]
As mentioned above, although each embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to this, It can implement in the range which does not change the meaning of a claim.
 第一実施形態に係るロック機構10は、連続した衝撃Pによる解除を防ぐことができた。しかしながら、図13に示すように、第一実施形態に係るロック機構10では、装置本体6に大きな衝撃Qが加えられた場合(例えば、ハンマー等を用いて衝撃が加えられた場合)に、その衝撃Qがロックレバ2に伝わり、ロックレバ2が開放許容位置に移動してしまう虞があった。つまり、第一実施形態に係るロック機構10では、連結部23とリミッタ3の第二屈曲部32との位置関係が特に限定されていなかったので、装置本体6に加えられた衝撃Qがリミッタ3の第二屈曲部32を介してロックレバ2の連結部23に伝わってしまう虞があった。第二実施形態~第五実施形態に係るロック機構10A~10Dについても同様である。 The lock mechanism 10 according to the first embodiment can prevent the release due to the continuous impact P. However, as shown in FIG. 13, in the lock mechanism 10 according to the first embodiment, when a large impact Q is applied to the device body 6 (for example, when an impact is applied using a hammer or the like), The impact Q is transmitted to the lock lever 2 and there is a possibility that the lock lever 2 may move to the open permitting position. That is, in the lock mechanism 10 according to the first embodiment, the positional relationship between the connecting portion 23 and the second bending portion 32 of the limiter 3 is not particularly limited. There is a possibility that the connection portion 23 of the lock lever 2 may be transmitted through the second bent portion 32 of the second embodiment. The same applies to the lock mechanisms 10A to 10D according to the second to fifth embodiments.
[第一実施形態の変形例(第一変形例)]
≪第一実施形態の変形例に係るロック機構の構成≫
 図14を参照して、第一実施形態の変形例に係るロック機構10Eの構成について説明する。ロック機構10Eは、ロックレバ2と、リミッタ3と、付勢部材4と、ロックレバ回動軸5と、を主に備える。本変形例では、ロックレバ2を設置する位置が第一実施形態と相違するため、相違する部分を中心に説明する。
Modification of First Embodiment (First Modification)
<< Configuration of Locking Mechanism According to Modification of First Embodiment >>
The configuration of a lock mechanism 10E according to a modification of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The lock mechanism 10E mainly includes a lock lever 2, a limiter 3, a biasing member 4, and a lock lever pivot shaft 5. In this modification, since the position at which the lock lever 2 is installed is different from that of the first embodiment, the difference will be mainly described.
 ロック機構10Eでは、開放規制位置において、ロックレバ2とリミッタ3との間に装置本体6に加えられた衝撃Q(図13参照)を伝わらなくするための隙間Hを設けてある。隙間Hを設ける位置は特段限定されるものではないが、例えば衝撃Qが加えられる場所や大きさ、ロックレバ2とリミッタ3との位置関係などにより決定される。ここでは、装置本体6の左壁に衝撃Qが加えられることを想定しているので、リミッタ3の延長線上であるロックレバ2の連結部23とリミッタ3の第二屈曲部32との間に隙間Hを設けてある。隙間Hの距離は、装置本体6に加えた衝撃Qがロックレバ2に伝わらないものであればよい。つまり、ここでの隙間Hの距離は、装置本体6に衝撃Qが加えられても、ロックレバ2の連結部23とリミッタ3の第二屈曲部32とが接触しないものである。なお、ロックレバ2を図14に示す開放規制位置にとどめておくために、例えばリミッタ3とは別部材(図示せず)を用いて、ロックレバ2のα1方向の回動を抑えるようにしてもよい。 In the lock mechanism 10E, a gap H is provided between the lock lever 2 and the limiter 3 so as not to transmit an impact Q (see FIG. 13) applied to the apparatus main body 6 in the open regulation position. The position where the gap H is provided is not particularly limited, but is determined, for example, by the location and size to which the shock Q is applied, the positional relationship between the lock lever 2 and the limiter 3, and the like. Here, it is assumed that the impact Q is applied to the left wall of the device body 6, so the gap between the connecting portion 23 of the lock lever 2 and the second bending portion 32 of the limiter 3 which is an extension of the limiter 3 H is provided. The distance of the gap H may be such that the shock Q applied to the device body 6 is not transmitted to the lock lever 2. That is, the distance H of the gap H here is such that the connecting portion 23 of the lock lever 2 and the second bending portion 32 of the limiter 3 do not contact even when the shock Q is applied to the device body 6. In addition, in order to keep the lock lever 2 in the open regulation position shown in FIG. 14, for example, a separate member (not shown) from the limiter 3 may be used to suppress the rotation of the lock lever 2 in the α1 direction. .
≪第一実施形態の変形例に係るロック機構の動作≫
<施錠状態での前扉の開放による動作>
 図14の実線で示す開放規制位置で前扉1が開放された場合(前扉1が前方に引っ張られた場合)に、先端部22の対向面22aとリミッタ3の後端32aとが当接し、前扉1の開放を規制する。
<< Operation of Locking Mechanism According to Modification of First Embodiment >>
<Operation by opening the front door in the locked state>
When the front door 1 is opened at the open regulation position shown by the solid line in FIG. 14 (when the front door 1 is pulled forward), the opposing surface 22a of the front end 22 abuts on the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 , Regulate the opening of the front door 1.
<施錠状態での衝撃の付与による動作>
 図14に示す開放規制位置において、装置本体6に大きな衝撃Q(図13参照)を加える場合を想定する。ロックレバ2の連結部23とリミッタ3の第二屈曲部32との間に隙間Hを設けることによって、装置本体6に大きな衝撃Qを加えた場合でも、ロックレバ2に衝撃Qは伝わらない。そのため、装置本体6に大きな衝撃Qを加えても、ロックレバ2が開放許容位置(図14の仮想線で示す位置)に移動せず、前扉1の開放は規制されたままとなる。
<Operation by application of impact in locked state>
It is assumed that a large impact Q (see FIG. 13) is applied to the device body 6 at the open regulation position shown in FIG. By providing the gap H between the connecting portion 23 of the lock lever 2 and the second bending portion 32 of the limiter 3, even if a large impact Q is applied to the device body 6, the impact Q is not transmitted to the lock lever 2. Therefore, even if a large impact Q is applied to the apparatus main body 6, the lock lever 2 does not move to the open allowable position (the position shown by the phantom line in FIG. 14), and the opening of the front door 1 remains restricted.
 また、図14に示す開放規制位置において、装置本体6に連続した衝撃P(図3参照)を加える場合を想定する。この場合、第一実施形態と同様に、図15に示すように、リミッタ3の後端32aが凹部22bにはまることで係止し、衝撃Pを与えてもロックレバ2は回動しなくなる。 Further, it is assumed that a continuous impact P (see FIG. 3) is applied to the apparatus main body 6 at the open regulation position shown in FIG. In this case, similarly to the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 15, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is engaged by being fitted in the recess 22b, and the lock lever 2 does not rotate even if an impact P is applied.
 以上のように、第一実施形態の変形例に係るロック機構10Eは、ロックレバ2とリミッタ3との間に衝撃Qを伝わらなくするための隙間Hが設けてある。そのため、大きな衝撃Qが加わったとしても、ロックレバ2に衝撃Qは伝わらないので、ロックレバ2が開放許容位置(図14の仮想線で示す位置)に移動せず、ロック機構10Eの解除を防ぐことができる。
 また、第一実施形態の変形例に係るロック機構10Eは、リミッタ3の後端32aに対向するロックレバ2の対向面22aに回動規制部としての凹部22bが形成されている。そして、装置本体6に連続した衝撃Pを加えた場合でも、凹部22bにリミッタ3の後端32aが係止し、ロックレバ2の回動が規制される。そのため、連続した衝撃Pを加えることによるロック機構10Eの解除を防ぐことができる。
As described above, in the lock mechanism 10E according to the modification of the first embodiment, the gap H for preventing transmission of the shock Q is provided between the lock lever 2 and the limiter 3. Therefore, even if a large impact Q is applied, the impact Q is not transmitted to the lock lever 2, so the lock lever 2 does not move to the open allowable position (the position shown by the phantom line in FIG. 14), and prevents the release of the lock mechanism 10E. Can.
In the lock mechanism 10E according to the modification of the first embodiment, a recess 22b as a rotation restricting portion is formed on the facing surface 22a of the lock lever 2 facing the rear end 32a of the limiter 3. Then, even when a continuous impact P is applied to the apparatus main body 6, the rear end 32a of the limiter 3 is locked in the recess 22b, and the rotation of the lock lever 2 is restricted. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the release of the lock mechanism 10E by applying the continuous impact P.

A lock mechanism 10H according to a modification of the fourth embodiment is shown in FIG. A lock mechanism 10I according to a modification of the fifth embodiment is shown in FIG. These lock mechanisms 10F to 10I do not transmit the shock Q (see FIG. 13) applied to the apparatus main body 6 between the lock levers 2A to 2D and the limiter 3 similarly to the lock mechanism 10E according to the first modification. A clearance H is provided for this purpose.
