Abstract:
1. A door check link apparatus for a vehicle, the door check link apparatus comprising: a case fixed to one of a door and a body of the vehicle; a check link having a base end portion swingably connected to the other of the door and the body; and a shoe which is received within the case, and which is slidably abutted on a detent surface of the check link, the check link which is formed by molding a synthetic resin on a surface of a core plate made from a metal, and which includes the detent surface having a raised portion and a recessed portion that are located at a substantially central portion of a longitudinal direction, and that are formed in the longitudinal direction, and a full open stopper that is located at a tip end portion, and which is arranged to be abutted on a stopper receiving surface of the case, and thereby to restrict a full open position of the door, the check link being constituted by integrally forming the detent surface and the full open stopper, the full open stopper of the check link including a projecting portion which is located at a tip end portion of the core plate, and which has a width larger than a width of the detent surface in a lateral direction of said check link, at least one bending piece which is formed at a first end portion of the projecting portion that is near the stopper receiving surface of the case, and which has a stopper surface confronting the stopper receiving surface, and at least one protruding portion which is formed on the projecting portion at a position farther apart from the stopper receiving surface relative to the stopper surface of the bending piece, and which protrudes in a direction substantially parallel to the stopper receiving surface, the full open stopper being formed by molding the synthetic resin on the tip end portion of the core plate including the projecting portion, the bending piece, and the protruding portion.
