ABSTRACT:
The present invention realizes a locking device for vehicle free from the occurrence of rattle at the portion where the striker is locked. When a lock plate5and a latch plate4are brought into a locked state and a latch-side recessed portion4dof the latch plate4is engaged with a striker20, a plate pressing cam7rotates clockwise by a restoring force by a coil spring12, so that its depressing-side cam portion7edepresses a tip end6cof a rattle-removing plate6. A rattle removing-side recessed portion6dof the rattle-removing plate6engages with the peripheral surface of the striker20, to suppress the rattle of the striker20. Since the rattle removing-side recessed portion6dis formed into the shape that matches the peripheral surface of the striker20, occurrence of rattle can be strictly suppressed.
