Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to lessen the housing space of a vehicular link device in such a state as storing a plate-like member.SOLUTION: The invention relates to a vehicular link device for turning a plate-like member 20 between the use and storage positions. The device has a first link 43 whose one end is turnably connected to a movable part 42a of a drive mechanism, and a second link 44 whose one end is turnably connected to the other end of the first link 43 and the other end of which is turnably connected to a site away from the turning center of the plate-like member 20. The movable part 42a of the drive mechanism pulls the member 20 through the first and second links 43 and 44, and thereby the member 20 is stored in the storage position. The angle θ1 formed by the first and second links 43 and 44 when the member 20 turns to the storage position is smaller than that angle when the member 20 turns to the use position.
