Brake/clutch locking device having anti-lock mechanism

摘要

A brake/clutch locking system has a brake panel-blocking rod attached to a slidable axial tube in an axial tube to which an anti-lock mechanism is connected. A block in a chamber operatively coupled to a coil spring has a mass that produces more kinetic energy than the coil spring. The block has a shoulder portion with a shape corresponding to a protruding lower edge of a coil spring biased pin that slides into a bored hole provided in the wall of the axial tube and on the slidable axial tube, blocking movement of the slidable axial tube when an external force applied to the block creates a sufficient amount of kinetic energy to move the block from the protruding edge of the pin.

主权项

1. An anti-lock mechanism for use with a brake/clutch locking device having an axial tube and a slidable axial tube, a bored hole provided in a wall of the axial tube and on the slidable axial tube in a position upstream of a locking position of the brake/clutch locking device, the anti-lock mechanism comprising:
a mechanical chamber having a wall; a pin in the mechanical chamber for use in preventing the slidable axial tube from sliding in the axial tube and on the slidable axial tube in the position upstream of the locking position of the brake/clutch locking device, the pin having an upper end with a protruding lower edge; a coil spring biasing the pin; a block having:
a front end and a rear end, the front end having a shoulder portion having a shape corresponding to the protruding lower edge of the pin, andan appropriate shape and size to slide inside the mechanical chamber between a first position in which the shoulder portion supports the protruding lower edge of the pin and a second position allowing the pin to slide down into the bored hole and block the movement of the slidable axial tube, which, in turn, prevents the brake/clutch locking device from sliding into the brake/clutch locking position; a spring to apply a pushing force to the rear end of the block; an axle provided at the upper end of the pin to extend through the wall of the mechanical chamber in an outward direction to:
pull the pin out of a position that blocks the slidable axial tube; andplace the pin onto the shoulder of the block; and a block holding axle protruding through the wall of the mechanical chamber, operatively coupled to the block to move the block between the first and second positions to allow the pin to be placed into a position suitable for preventing the brake/clutch locking device from entering the locking position in relation with a retreating of the block, wherein when an external force is applied to a main structure of an automobile in a relative direction and angle, the block produces sufficient kinetic energy to overcome a spring force by the spring and the block is moved from the first position to the second position.
