Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a Locking device, especially for drawers or Cabinet doors.
  • Such locking devices are used to prevent drawers from being pulled out or Secure cabinet doors against opening. An opening one appropriately secured drawer or cabinet doors then only possible if the drawer or door beforehand has been unlocked.
  • Such locking devices are especially useful when there is a fear that Drawers or doors of a cabinet unintentionally through one Moving the cabinet or an unfavorable installation of the Open the cabinet automatically.
  • DE 30 02 408 is a drawer cabinet with a Device for securing at least one of several in the Cabinet body known superimposed drawers.
  • This device for securing the drawers consists in essentially from an open securing groove in one Side wall of the drawer cabinet and a latch part, that is connected to the drawer.
  • a locking bolt of the locking part snaps into the drawer spring loaded into the locking groove of the side wall and locks the drawer.
  • Leaves over a flat handle the locking bolt of the locking part against the spring force move out of the locking groove, so the drawer release. Moving the handle of the latch part and so that the latch itself takes place in a direction transverse to the direction of movement of the drawer.
  • US 4,525,012 discloses a locking device for Drawers and the like, which run lengthways Actuating rod which through the front wall of the Protruding drawer.
  • the operating rod moves you Thorn in the rear of the drawer in a recess a rotating lever.
  • This rotatable lever is thereby out a groove in the drawer guide moved out so that the drawer can be moved back and forth.
  • the rotatable Lever is held in place by a torsion spring Hold position, and the mandrel is replaced by a second spring, preferably a compression spring, in one position held in which it is not engaged with the rotatable lever stands.
  • the drawer is unlocked accordingly a longitudinal displacement of the actuating rod parallel to Direction of movement of the drawer.
  • the present invention has the technical problem based on creating a locking device, like them for example for securing drawers or cabinet doors can be used, the unlocking of the Locking device essentially by a Swivel movement parallel to the direction of movement of the Drawer or cabinet door is done.
  • the present invention is based on the idea of a Bolt for a locking device rotatable in one Housing the locking device so that the latch between a first and a second position is pivotally mounted. In its first position it protrudes Latch out of the housing of the locking device and into a locking groove. In this way, one Movement of the bolt and a drawer connected to it or cabinet door in relation to the securing groove prevented.
  • the Latch is made by the force of a spring in this first Position in which he so from the housing of the Locking device protrudes that it is in the Can engage safety groove, held.
  • Actuator Over a Actuator is the bolt against the force of the Spring from the first position to a second position swiveling, in which the bolt so far into the housing of the Locking device pivots back that the latch is not can engage more in the locking groove.
  • Actuator also rotatably mounted, and the The axis of rotation of the bolt is parallel to the axis of rotation of the Actuator.
  • the Locking device designed so that into a recessed grip on a drawer or a cabinet door can be installed.
  • This is the outer contour of the housing the locking device designed so that it in the Handle recess of the drawer or the cabinet door can be fitted can, so that the housing with the latch and the Actuator essentially in the recessed grip Drawer or the cabinet door can be accommodated.
  • the Actuator over which the bolt between its first and its second position is pivotable preferably an angle lever which is articulated with the Latch of the locking device is connected.
  • the one Bolt facing leg of the bell crank is with a Compression spring connected to the angle lever in one position holds in which the bolt takes its first position in which it protrudes from the housing of the locking device.
  • the latch of the locking device has a first Surface on which in the first position of the latch in essentially perpendicular to the side walls of the cabinet is arranged.
  • This first surface of the bar forms the in Side face of the bolt pointing in the opening direction. about this first surface defines an abutment surface with a corresponding surface of the securing groove in engagement can get to the drawer or the cabinet door too lock.
  • the second surface of the Riegel is preferably rounded or tapered the first surface of the bar. In this way they define first and second surface of the latch one essentially triangular wedge, the tip of which forms the edge on the the first and the second surface of the bar meet.
  • This configuration of the bolt of Locking device pivots the bolt on one Closing the drawer or the cabinet door automatically without an actuation of the angle lever from its first position in the second position when using the second surface of the latch the side wall of the cabinet comes into contact.
  • the bar is pivoted back against the spring force by a Edge of the side wall of the cabinet on the second surface of the Riegel slides along.
  • the bolt is the Locking device aligned with the locking groove in positioned the side wall of the cabinet so that the latch by spring force from its second position to the first Swings back position so that it into the locking groove engages and thus the drawer or the cabinet door locked.
  • the latch and the Actuating device of the locking device are both the latch and the Actuating device of the locking device at least partly at the ends facing each other with a Toothing equipped.
  • the bolt or the actuator is firmly connected to a gear his.
  • the bolt and the actuator are now like this positioned in the housing that the toothing surfaces of the Riegel and the actuator interlock, so that by manual movement of the actuator the latch between his first position in which he is out of the Protrudes housing, and pivoted its second position can be, in which he essentially in the housing of the Locking device is pivoted back.
