In other words, the sliding movement of the door, to which the roller is attached, pivots the rotation part, which then releases the pin. This also means that the pin is loaded with spring load by the rotation part for inserting the pin into the hole once the pivoting arm has reached a respective position relative to the arm support.
- According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, a Bowden cable is provided between the rotation part and the pin. Further, a Bowden cable housing is preferred for housing the Bowden cable between the rotation part and the pin. This way, the Bowden cable inserts and/or releases the pin once the rotation part is pivoted by the roller.
- According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a releaser is provided that is attached to the pivoting arm for releasing the hook. Thus, the hook that is hookable into the roller, can be released by a pivoting movement of the pivoting arm. Preferably, the releaser is provided for example as a bold, a pin or a spike. It is further preferred that the releaser releases the hook at the end of the pivoting movement of the door during opening.
- Further, and according to another preferred embodiment of the invention, the roller is adapted to the door in such a manner that, during the end of the sliding movement of the door, the roller pivots the rotation part to release the pin. This means that at the end of the sliding movement of the door, during which the pivoting movement of the door is locked, the roller releases the pin so that the pivoting movement of the door becomes unlocked and the hook hooks into the roller and locks the sliding movement of the door.
