In general, the trunk lid latch installed inside the trunk of the vehicle can be classified into mechanical and electrical according to its operation. The mechanical type can be manually pulled out or pulled for emergency exit of the trunk with the user trapped on the trunk. The trunk lead latch is operated by operating (Key Set).

The electric type is a method in which a driver opens or closes a trunk by operating a trunk opening lever or a button installed in a driver's seat, or by operating an actuator by a remote signal of a remote controller.

Since the mechanical type is operated manually, the battery installed in the vehicle has the advantage of being able to operate even when the battery is completely discharged. There is an advantage that the opening and closing of the trunk can be controlled.

The mechanical and electrical methods for operating the trunk lid latches have their advantages and disadvantages, and recently, each method is combined to use the advantages of each method and to compensate for the disadvantages.

The trunk lid latch is provided with a base plate on which a plurality of components are installed, and the base plate is used as a common ground to operate the actuator and the room lamp on the base plate.

When the base plate is used as a common ground, the plating and coloring of the base plate is impossible, there is a problem that is difficult to meet the increasingly diverse requirements of consumers.

In addition, the trunk is provided with an emergency handle knob to be open-operated from the inside in an emergency, the front of the knob housing in which the emergency handle is installed is penetrated, so that the cargo or cargo loaded into the trunk through the penetrated area There was a problem that the trunk lid latch may malfunction when a foreign material having a length is inserted.

The above problems provide a cause that can cause dissatisfaction with the vehicle, along with inconvenience caused by the user's repeated trunk operation.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, by plating and coloring the base plate provided in the trunk lid latch, it is possible to meet the various needs of consumers and the vehicle trunk lid can prevent the malfunction of the trunk lid latch The purpose is to provide a latch.

The present invention for achieving the above object is rotatably installed on the inner side of the base plate formed with the recessed portion to enable the entry and exit of the striker, and fork lever for restraining or releasing the striker, rotatable on the base plate It is installed so that, when the striker entry and exit is provided with a foul lever that is coupled to the fork lever locking or unlocking.

Both ends are connected and installed between the fork lever and the foul lever to provide rotational force, an actuator unit installed above the base plate and operated according to a user's remote control signal, and provided at the upper side of the foul lever. It is installed to release the rotation limit state of the, and the opening lever is provided with a contact brush to enable the operation (On) Off (Off) the room lamp when the trunk is opened or closed.

A steering wheel housing recessed inwardly to accommodate the shift lever provided to rotate the opening lever in one direction to release the locked state of the fork lever and the foul lever, and the shift handle provided at the end of the shift lever. Is provided but the handle housing is provided with a through hole formed in the inner lower portion of the handle housing to enable the shift lever.

A first terminal, one end of which is located inside the connector and the other end of which is capable of supplying a single polarity current separately to the actuator; one end of which is located inside the connector and the other end of which is capable of supplying a single polarity current separately to the room lamp The second terminal is provided, one end is provided inside the connector and the other end is provided with a terminal portion having a third terminal for supplying current to the actuator portion and the room lamp and supplying a current of a different polarity than the first and second terminals. .

A first connection terminal connected to an end of the third terminal and extended to be connected to an end of the second terminal such that an inner side of the base plate extends to a sliding surface where sliding of a contact brush operated together with an opening lever is performed; A connection terminal having a second connection terminal extending to the sliding surface of the contact brush and provided to be in contact with the contact brush is installed on the inner lever fixed to the base plate.

The contact brush is located in the insulating area of the sliding surface when the trunk is closed, and the non-contacted contact with the first and second connection terminals, and when the trunk is opened, the contact brush is moved from the insulating area of the sliding surface toward the first and second connection terminals. Contacts are in contact.
