Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lock for the lid a tiltable container, comprising a lock housing with in this a locking member that can be tilted about an axis, that interacts with a first end for locking an abutment and a weighted, in assembled state of the lock when tilting the container movable in the vertical direction Locking element acting blocking element that at the same time with one to be operated by the user Lock mechanism interacts.
  • Such a lock is known from EP-A-0 509 932.
  • the lock described therein is intended in a Garbage can to be used and its purpose is prevent third parties from accidentally dumping garbage into their own Throw in the garbage can.
  • the locking member is a Tilt arm with two hook-like ends.
  • the first end works together with the hook end of the abutment, and the second End is under the influence of an elongated, slidable guided, the locking member forming slide with each End of one aligned with the blocking member Operating nose.
  • This slider works with one key-operated operating cams underneath together.
  • the top nose normally locks the tilt arm, however, the slide can over the operating cams be lifted and then presses with the lower nose Rocker arm to the release position where this arm is free of the abutment is so that the container can be opened can.
  • Locking element is a rolling element that moves during the tilting of the Ton can move along a runway, making that Blocking organ is optionally released.
  • the lock housing In the operating state, the lock housing is essentially be set up vertically, and the locking member is located in a first position.
  • the user can use the lock use a key to operate the lid of the Release the container. If the container is now in the locked position of the lock for the purpose of emptying via a tilting mechanism at an angle of more than 90 ° tilted, the rolling body moves from the first Position under the influence of gravity along the runway in a second position, in which this Locking device releases, and the lid accordingly opens. After emptying the container, it is placed in the first position tilted back, causing the rolling body in the first position runs back and the lid locked again is.
  • Taxiway moving roller organ Due to the simple structure with one along one Taxiway moving roller organ becomes compact and get simple construction that easily into existing Container can be installed.
  • the lock housing can run almost completely closed, so that Construction is largely insensitive to contamination.
  • the rolling body is a essentially round ball
  • the runway is an in Arranged in the longitudinal direction of the locking member Guide groove.
  • the guide groove opens near the end of the locking member on both sides across in two chambers opposite the stop, which chambers the Take the ball at least partially into it if the Container tilted sideways from the operating position has been.
  • the stop is designed in such a way that this extends almost along the entire width of the two Chambers extends. This allows the in one of the two Ball located in the chamber is not in the second position move, as a result of which the container at one Tilting sideways remains closed.
  • the guide groove near the first end of the Locking member one to the intermediate part towards the first ascending slope, which the ball almost in the first position until the container is over a Angle is tilted forward more than 90 °. This will prevented that the lid during the tilting of the Can open the container early.
  • the guide groove assigns one end of the locking member the intermediate part of the ascending slope, which almost keeps the ball in the second position, causing the lid first while tipping back the container is closed.
  • the tilt axis of the Locking device in the vicinity of the distance of the first lying second end.
  • This spring element ensures that the locking member when Lifting the lid after passing the abutment, springs back.
  • This spring element is preferably a eccentrically arranged compression spring that saves space is easy to assemble.
  • this is Lock mechanism a rotatable lock cylinder, which on the end of which carries the stop.
  • the castle is hereby easily with commercially available, cheap Standard elements built.
  • the container is preferably a garbage can, in which the Lock housing in an advantageous manner on the lid, and that Abutment is attached to the bucket.
  • the structure of the castle does this insensitive to pollution.
  • U.S. Patent 5,094 358 a retrofit to existing garbage cans Locking mechanism to be arranged with an L-shaped Tie bar system describes that in the upright Position of the barrel can complete the barrel, however is released in its tilted position, so that the Garbage can can then be emptied. To lock the Lid in the upright position of the bin becomes one Lock ball applied.
  • the German patent application 195 07 254 finally relates also on locking the lid one Garbage can, which is provided with both garbage cans lock a lid, as well as open automatically, if these are tilted.
  • the mechanism used for this is quite complicated and includes a tiltable, as well as slidable latch, which has a locking ball cooperates with a rotary valve, which in turn with interacts with a key-operated lock.
  • the Locking ball is used according to (in order to Emptying) and then tipping the bin back Block the bolt so that the lid remains locked.
  • This steel ball works with a permanent magnet together, so that a shake on the barrel does not lead to the Release of the bolt leads; only that about the castle Operating the rotary valve enables this.
  • Figure 1 shows an exploded view of the castle. This consists of a lock housing 2 with a cover 4, through which cover a cylinder housing 6 passes, the one by means of a key 8 from the user actuating cylinder lock 10 receives.
  • the mobile Part of the cylinder lock 10 carries one at the end Stop 12. In the lower surface of the stop 12 are two grooves, not shown, arranged the stop 12 under the influence of a spring loaded by a compression spring Locking ball 16 locked in two positions.
  • the stop 12 is opposite Locking element in the form of a locking pin 18.
  • the Lock pin 18 has an elongated shape in which a first end a transversely protruding from the stop 12 from directed part 18a, and a second end protruding pivot pin 18b, which in corresponding Recesses 2a engage in the lock housing 2, and around the locking pin 18 can be tilted within the housing 2 is hung. This second end is affected two eccentrically arranged compression springs 20.
  • Longitudinal direction of the locking pin 18 is on the side of the Stop 12 arranged a vertical guide groove 18c, the near the first end of the locking pin 18 aan both Pages open into chambers 18d, 18e.
  • the guide groove 18c has a cross-sectional circumference that is at least partially that corresponds to a ball 22, which ball to some extent has a smaller diameter than the guide groove 18c.
  • the Chambers 18d, 18e are designed in such a way that they can only partially accommodate the ball 22.
  • the locking pin 18 acts with one arranged on an end plate 24 Abutment in the form of a cam 24a together.
  • the cross protruding part 18a of the locking pin 18 is in such Designed so that this behind the cams 24a Connection plate 24 can grip.
  • the lock housing 2 can by means of bolts 26 through a cover plate 28 be attached to the lid of a container.
  • the End plate 24 can with the help of mounting screws be mounted on the inside of the bucket of the container.
  • Figure 2a shows the lock in the operating state of the Container with the lid locked. It says the lock cylinder 10 in such a position that the Stop 12 almost touches the ball 22.
  • the ball 22 hereby blocks the articulated around the pivot pin 18b second end of the locking pin 18.
  • the transversely protruding Part 18a of the first end of the locking pin 18 engages hereby behind the cams 24a and prevents the Lid can be raised.
  • Figure 2b shows the lock in the released position, while the user has lifted the lid slightly.
  • the Lock cylinder 10 is by the user by means of Key 8 compared to that shown in Fig. 2a Position has been rotated through an angle of 90 °, which means the stop 12 moves in the direction of arrow A. Has.
  • the space between the stop 12 and the ball 22 enlarged in such a way that when the User lifts the lid slightly, the cam 24a Locking pin 18 against the spring force of the compression springs 20 pushes away.
  • the transversely protruding part 18a of the locking pin 18 passes the cam 24a when the Lid, which allows the container to be opened completely.
  • Figure 3 shows the lock in a position in which the Container with a locked lock (taking the stop 12 in the same position shown in Fig. 2a tilted forward by an angle of more than 90 ° is. Due to the tilting movement, however, the ball 22 is out the first position along the guide groove 18c in a End position near the second end of the locking pin 18 shifted.
  • a first slope 18f of the locking pin 18 ensures that the ball 22 only starts to move, if the container is tilted more than 90 °, causing is prevented that the lid is already at one would open a smaller tilt angle.
  • Ball 22 lands finally on a second slope 18g, which is their End position determined. As a result, the locking pin 18 is opposite released the cam 24a.
  • the lid now opens under the influence of gravity. During the Tilting the container back remains the ball 22 through the second slope 18g still briefly in the end position, whereby the lid can only close. Then the runs Ball 22 along the guide groove 18c back into the Locked position according to Fig.
  • the container If the container is tipped backwards, it runs Ball 22 from the first position in which it is between the stop 12 and the locking pin 18 (as shown in Fig. 2a) is on a slope 2b of the Lock housing to a slope 2c.
  • the slope 2c provides that the ball 22 only reaches the end position when the Container is tilted at an angle greater than 90 °. In the end position is the locking pin 18 opposite the cam 24a released, which causes the lid under the influence of Gravity opens further.
  • Figure 4 shows that the ball 22 is in a sideways Tilting the container partially in the chambers 18d, 18e can be located, whereby the locking pin 18 is not released becomes.
  • FIG. 5 A favorable detail is shown in FIG. 5. In this it is shown how cams 2d on the lock housing 2 in Recesses 24b added in the end plate 24 will. This measure prevents that Bending the lid of the locking pin 18 along the Can move cams 24a, which makes the cover later could be raised.
