Abstract
A steering lock device includes a trigger that is displaced as a frame cover drops from a frame, an auxiliary lock device that holds a lock member in a locked position as the trigger is displaced under condition that the lock member is positioned in the locked position, a housed component that is arranged in a housing chamber defined by the frame cover and the frame or in a guide hole, and a trigger coupling member that couples the housed component and the trigger. When the housed component is displaced, the trigger is displaced via the trigger coupling member.
Claims7
A steering lock device, comprising:
- a frame provided with at least a cylinder cylindrical part in which a key cylinder lock is arranged, with the key cylinder lock housed in a sleeve having a substantially cylindrical shape, the key cylinder lock constructed so that the key cylinder lock unlocks to make a key rotatable in the sleeve around an axis of the sleeve;
- a frame cover assembled to the frame to close an opening-end side of the cylinder cylindrical part;
- a lock member arranged in a guide hole provided in the frame so as to be slidable between a locked position and an unlocked position;
- a trigger configured to be displaced as the frame cover drops from the frame;
- an auxiliary lock device configured to allow the lock member to be held in the locked position as the trigger is displaced under a condition that the lock member is positioned in the locked position;
- a housed component arranged in a housing chamber defined by the frame cover and the frame or in the guide hole;
- and
- a trigger coupling member that couples the housed component and the trigger, wherein
- when the housed component is displaced against the frame cover, the trigger is displaced via the trigger coupling member.
A steering lock device, comprising:
- a frame provided with at least a cylinder cylindrical part in which a key cylinder lock is arranged;
- a connecting part, with the sleeve rotating about its axis together with the connecting part;
- a coupling member that moves together with the connecting part, wherein a predetermined excessive force applied to the lock causes the cylindrical part to deflect or break to cause displacement of the lock cover so that the auxiliary lock member moves toward the locked position;
- a frame cover assembled to the frame to close an opening-end side of the cylinder cylindrical part;
- a lock member arranged in a guide hole provided in the frame so as to be slidable between a locked position and an unlocked position;
- a trigger configured to be displaced as the frame cover drops from the frame;
- an auxiliary lock device configured to allow the lock member to be held in the locked position as the trigger is displaced under a condition that the lock member is positioned in the locked position;
- a housed component arranged in a housing chamber defined by the frame cover and the frame or in the guide hole;
- and
- a trigger coupling member that couples the housed component and the trigger, wherein
- when the housed component is displaced against the frame cover, the trigger is displaced via the trigger coupling member.
