Abstract
An apparatus for automatically opening and closing a trunk lid includes an actuator having a first end configured to be coupled to a vehicle body and a second end configured to be coupled to a hinge arm coupled to the trunk lid, a closing trigger link having a first end rotatably coupled to the actuator, an opening trigger link rotatably coupled to the closing trigger link, a spring assembling pin having a first end coupled to the closing trigger link and the opening trigger link, and a spring having a first end coupled to a second end of the spring assembling pin, and a second end configured to be coupled to the vehicle body or a panel configured to be mounted on the vehicle body.
Claims20
An apparatus for automatically opening and closing a trunk lid, the apparatus comprising:
- an actuator configured to be coupled to a hinge arm coupled to the trunk lid;
- a closing trigger link having a first end rotatably coupled to the actuator, wherein the closing trigger link comprises a rotating part having a first end coupled to the actuator and a closing reaction force part formed to extend from a second end of the rotating part;
- an opening trigger link rotatably coupled to the closing trigger link;
- a spring assembling pin having a first end coupled to the closing trigger link and the opening trigger link;
- and
- a spring having a first end coupled to a second end of the spring assembling pin and a second end configured to be coupled to a vehicle body or a panel to be mounted on the vehicle body.
An apparatus for automatically opening and closing a trunk lid, the apparatus comprising:
- an actuator configured to be coupled to a hinge arm coupled to the trunk lid;
- a closing trigger link comprising a rotating part having a first end rotatably coupled to the actuator and a closing reaction force part formed to extend from a second end of the rotating part;
- and
- an opening trigger link comprising an opening reaction force part having a first end rotatably coupled to the second end of the rotating part and a constraining part formed to extend from the first end of the opening reaction force part.
A vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle body;
- a trunk lid coupled to the vehicle body;
- a hinge arm coupled to the trunk lid;
- an actuator coupled to the hinge arm;
- a closing trigger link comprising a rotating part having a first end coupled to the actuator and a closing reaction force part formed to extend from a second end of the rotating part;
- an opening trigger link rotatably coupled to the closing trigger link, the opening trigger link comprising an opening reaction force part having a first end coupled to the second end of the rotating part and a constraining part formed to extend from the first end of the opening reaction force part;
- a spring assembling pin having a first end coupled to the closing trigger link and the opening trigger link;
- and
- a spring having a first end coupled to a second end of the spring assembling pin, and a second end coupled to the vehicle body or a panel mounted on the vehicle body.
