車両用方向指示装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4181024
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A restricting projecting portion (37) is provided on an upper surface of a bracket (4) in the vicinity of an apex portion (31a) of an angled cam projecting portion (30) for guiding the movement of a shaft portion (33) of a ratchet (32). When an operation lever (7) and a bracket (4) are returned to a neutral position (N) from a left-turn indicating position (L) or a right-turn indicating position (R), the force of the shaft portion (33) of the ratchet (32) is weakened through the abutment of the shaft portion (33) of the ratchet (32) against a bearing surface (37a) of the restricting projecting portion (37), whereby the passage of the shaft portion (33) across the apex portion (31a) of the cam projecting portion (31) to an opposite side is restricted. This facilitates the stopping of the bracket (4) and hence the operation lever (7) at the neutral position (N).
