Description

Flächige Verbindungshalterungen, die sich dadurch auszeichnen, dass das paarweise Zusammenführen und Feststellen von Gegenstücken eine dauerhafte, bedarfsweise wieder voneinander zu lösende Verbindung zwischen diesen Gegenstücken herstellt, finden verbreitet Anwendung, beispielsweise als Schnallen-Schubverschlüsse an Rucksäcken. Üblicherweise sind derartige Verbindungshalterungen (1, 2) durch flexible Haltebindungen (12) aus biegsamem Kunststoffgewebe mit dem zu sichernden Gegenstand verbunden.Flat connection brackets, which are characterized by the fact that the pairing and fixing of counterparts creates a permanent connection between these counterparts that can be detached from one another if necessary, are widely used, for example as buckle slide fasteners on rucksacks. Such connecting brackets (1, 2) are usually connected to the object to be secured by means of flexible retaining ties (12) made of flexible plastic fabric.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschließeinrichtung kombiniert durch ihren Verschließmechanismus die Flexibilität derartiger Verbindungshalterungen (1, 2) mit der Möglichkeit einer individuellen Sicherung, um diese abschließbar zu gestalten und deren Verschließen oder Öffnen ausschließlich durch solche Personen zuzulassen, die über ein passendes, einlegbares Schlüsselelement (19) verfügen. Das Schlüsselelement (19) fügt sich beim Einlegen in das Drehelement (13) exakt in entsprechende Aussparungen (15, 16) ein und kann sowohl im geöffneten als auch im verschließenden Zustand der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung aus dem Drehelement (13) entfernt und getrennt verwahrt werden.The locking device according to the invention combines the flexibility of such connection brackets (1, 2) with the possibility of an individual security in order to make them lockable and to allow their locking or opening only by people who have a suitable, insertable key element (19) . The key element (19) fits exactly into corresponding recesses (15, 16) when it is inserted into the rotary element (13) and can be removed from the rotary element (13) and stored separately both in the open and in the closed state of the locking device according to the invention.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschließeinrichtung kann aus üblicherweise eingesetzten Materialien (z. B. Kunststoffen) gefertigt werden, ist in ihrer Komplexität konfigurierbar und kommt ohne aufwendige technische Feinmechanik wie etwa einem Schließzylinder aus.The closing device according to the invention can be made of commonly used materials (e.g. plastics) can be configured in its complexity and does not require complex technical precision mechanics such as a lock cylinder.

In der Schrift E1 ist eine Verschließeinrichtung mit Schließzylinder und Flachschlüssel beschrieben, deren Verschlusswirkung durch innerhalb einer Fassung seitlich angebrachte Zuhaltungsstifte erreicht wird, welche einen Rotationskörper je nach Lage sperren oder freigeben. Auf diese Funktionsweise greift die erfindungsgemäße Verschließeinrichtung zurück.In document E1, a locking device with a lock cylinder and flat key is described, the locking effect of which is achieved by tumbler pins attached laterally within a mount, which lock or release a rotary body depending on its position. The closing device according to the invention makes use of this mode of operation.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verschließeinrichtung nutzt folgende Bausteine, die anordnungsgemäß miteinander kombiniert werden:

  1. 1. Fassung (23), welche innerhalb eines kreisförmigen Innenbereichs (5) das Drehelement (13) umschließt. Die Quadranten (Q1-Q4) der den Innenbereich (5) der Fassung (23) nach außen begrenzenden Kreislinie teilen sich in gleichartig in mindestens ein Segment, ansonsten eine beliebige Anzahl von Segmenten (S1-S12) auf. Je Segment (S1-S12) aus den Quadranten (Q1-Q4) ist innerhalb der Fassung (23) ein Blockierkopf (24b) angebracht, der durch entsprechend gerichteten, mechanischen Druck seitlich aus dem Innenbereich (5) der Fassung (23) in den Außenbereich (23c) innerhalb der Fassung (23) verschiebbar ist, und derart verschoben ohne gerichteten, mechanischen Gegendruck in den Innenbereich (5) der Fassung (23) zurück federt. Die Fassung (23) ist bedarfsweise anteilig oder insgesamt - für eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform über einen Halbbogen, 180 Grad - mit einer äußeren Verblendung versehen, um vor dem unbefugten Zugriff auf die Blockierköpfe (24a, 24b) besser zu schützen.
  2. 2. Drehelement (13), welches sich innerhalb des kreisförmigen Innenbereichs (5) der Fassung (23) befindet, mit der Aufnahmemöglichkeit eines flächigen Schlüsselelements (19) über individuell angepasste Aussparungen innerhalb der Elementoberfläche. Das Drehelement (13) ist in Verbindung mit dem eingelegten Schlüsselelement (19) um einen bestimmten Drehwinkel (für eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform ein Viertelkreis, 90 Grad) in beiden Richtungen drehbar.
  3. 3. Flächiges Schlüsselelement (19), welches sich mit seinen Schlüsselzungen (21, 22) exakt in die Aussparungen (15, 16) innerhalb des Drehelements (13) einfügt und in dieses einlegbar ist. Durch Einlegen des Schlüsselelements (19) in das Drehelement (13) sind beide Elemente in Verbindung miteinander drehbar (Patentansprüche 1-3). Das Schlüsselelement (19) ist für eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform jeweils im geöffneten oder verschließenden Zustand der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung in das Drehelements (13) einlegbar oder aus diesem entfernbar (Patentansprüche 6, 7).
  4. 4. Unterhalb des Drehelements (13) an der Mittelachse (25) des Drehelements (13) angebrachter Drehriegel (11), der sich beim Verschließen der Verschließeinrichtung in Verbindung mit dem Drehelement zwischen die paarweise zusammengeführten Verbindungshalterungen (1, 2) in Querrichtung vor die Haltezungen (9a, 9b) des flachen Verbindungselements (8) der einrastenden Verbindungshalterung (2) legt (Patentanspruch 8).

Fig. 3 zeigt schematisch in einer Aufsicht von oben den Aufbau der Fassung (23), den kreisförmigen Innenbereich (5) umschließend, sowie den Aufbau des darin befindlichen Drehelements (13) für eine besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung. Zum Verschließen der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung wird das Drehelement (13) um einen Viertelkreis (90 Grad) im Uhrzeigersinn gedreht (Pfeil R aus Fig. 3).

Die Verschlusswirkung der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung ergibt sich aufgrund folgender Merkmale:

  1. 1. Die erfindungsgemäße Verschließeinrichtung ist aus haltbaren, formstabilen Materialien gefertigt (z. B. Kunststoff oder Metall), die auch größerer Zug- oder Druckbelastung standhalten. Dies betrifft insbesondere diejenigen Elemente auf derjenigen Seite der einrastenden Verbindungshalterung (1), auf der sich der Drehriegel (11) von unten unterhalb Haltezunge (9a) eindreht, und auf der im verschließenden Zustand der Verschließeinrichtung die hauptsächliche Belastung liegt.
  2. 2. Die Konturierung der Schlüsselzungen (21, 22) des Schlüsselelements (19) wird durch Bildung von Varianten möglichst individuell gehalten, analog zu herkömmlichen Zylinderschlüsseln.
  3. 3. Das Schlüsselelement (19) bezieht sich für eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform zumindest auf entsprechende Segmente (18) aus zwei diagonal gegenüberliegenden Quadranten (Q1, Q3).

Das Schlüsselelement (19) ist in Schrägstellung in das Drehelement (13) einlegbar.
  5. 5. Das Überwinden der Verschlusswirkung ohne passendes Schlüsselelement (19) erfordert gleichzeitigen Zugriff auf die innerhalb der Fassung diagonal gegenüberliegenden liegenden Blockierköpfe (24b).
  6. 6. Die Verschlusswirkung zwischen den zusammengeführten Verbindungshalterungen (1, 2) ergibt sich durch diejenigen Haltezungen (9a) des flachen Verbindungselements (8) der einrastenden Verbindungshalterung (2), für die sich der Drehriegel(11) von unten eindreht. Für eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform ist gegenüberliegende Haltezunge (9b) mit einer geringeren Höhe vorzusehen, sodass sich der Drehriegel (11) durch entsprechende Profilvertiefungen in seiner Oberfläche daran vorbeidrehen kann und sich auf beiden Seiten des Drehriegels (11) eine Verschlusswirkung ergibt.
The locking effect of the locking device according to the invention results from the following features:
  1. 1. The closure device according to the invention is made of durable, dimensionally stable materials (e.g. plastic or metal) that can withstand greater tensile or compressive loads. This applies in particular to those elements on the side of the locking connection bracket (1) on which the rotary bolt (11) turns from below below the retaining tongue (9a) and on which the main load is when the locking device is locked.
  2. 2. The contouring of the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19) is kept as individual as possible by creating variants, analogous to conventional cylinder keys.
  3. 3. For a preferred embodiment, the key element (19) relates at least to corresponding segments (18) made up of two diagonally opposed quadrants (Q1, Q3). Without the key element (19) inserted in the rotary element (13), spring-back blocking heads (24b) lock the rotary element (13) within the segments (18) of these quadrants (Q1, Q3).
  4. 4. The area of the blocking heads (24a, 24b) is - for a preferred embodiment in a semi-arc of 180 degrees - shielded by a lateral circular guide (23a, 23b) in such a way that overcoming the locking effect of the locking device according to the invention is made as difficult as possible with simple tools , especially with low complexity of the key element (19). The key element (19) can be placed in an inclined position in the rotary element (13).
  5. 5. Overcoming the locking effect without a suitable key element (19) requires simultaneous access to the diagonally opposite blocking heads (24b) within the socket.
  6. 6. The locking effect between the merged connecting brackets (1, 2) results from those holding tongues (9a) of the flat connecting element (8) of the locking connecting bracket (2) for which the rotary bolt (11) turns from below. For a preferred embodiment, opposing retaining tongue (9b) is to be provided with a lower height so that the rotary bolt (11) can rotate past it through corresponding profile depressions in its surface and there is a locking effect on both sides of the rotary bolt (11).

Es sind Varianten der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung denkbar, welche mit einer zunehmenden Komplexität verbunden sind, etwa durch eine Steigerung der Anzahl der Segmente (S1-S12) der den Innenbereich (5) der Fassung (23) nach außen begrenzenden Kreislinie mit entsprechenden, innerhalb der Fassung (23) angebrachten Blockierköpfen (24a, 24b). Eine möglichst einfache Form der erfindungsgemäßen Verschließeinrichtung und des damit verbundenen Verschließmechanismus wird favorisiert, um eine Alternative zu herkömmlichen, feinmechanischen Verschließeinrichtungen im vergleichbaren Anwendungsbereich aufzuzeigen.Variants of the locking device according to the invention are conceivable which are associated with increasing complexity, for example by increasing the number of segments (S1-S12) of the circular line delimiting the inner area (5) of the mount (23) with corresponding ones inside the mount (23) attached blocking heads (24a, 24b). The simplest possible form of the locking device according to the invention and the locking mechanism associated therewith is favored in order to show an alternative to conventional, precision mechanical locking devices in a comparable field of application.

Closing device including a frame (23), a rotary element (13), as well as a flat key element (19), wherein the frame (23) encloses the rotary element (13) within a circular inner area (5), and the distance between the center point of the inner area (5) of the frame (23) and the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23) matches the full radius (r1), and the rotary element (13) is connected with the frame (23) in a solid and rotatable fashion, and the quadrants (Q1-Q4) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23) are divided identically in at least one segment, or otherwise in any number of segments (S1-S12), and a blocking head (24a, 24b) is mounted within the frame (23) for each segment (S1-12) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23), and a blocking head (24b) is movable within the frame (23) by a corresponding directed mechanical pressure applied laterally from the inner area (5) of the frame (23) into the outer area (23c), and the shifted blocking heads (24a) spring back identically without a corresponding directed mechanical counter-pressure in the inner area (5) of the frame (23), and the inner radius (r2) matches the distance between the center point of the inner area (5) of the frame (23) and an imaginary circle drawn around said center point, for which the rotary element (13) almost reaches the back springing blocking heads (24b) mounted within the frame (23) while filling the inner area (5) of the frame (23) with regard to the rotation axis exactly until the edge of said circle, and the rotary element (13), for each segment (S1-12) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23), fills the inner area (5) of the frame (23) with regard to the rotation axis either laterally until reaching the full radius (r1), or laterally until barely reaching the inner radius (r2), and the rotary element (13) laterally fills at least one of said segments (17) of the inner area (5) of the frame (23) with regard to the rotation axis until reaching the full radius (r1), and for at least one other of said segments (18), fills the inner area (5) of the frame (23) laterally with regard to the rotation axis until barely reaching the inner radius (r2), wherein the rotary element (13), for the segments (18) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23) wherein the rotary element (13) laterally fills the inner area (5) of the frame (23) with regard to the rotation axis until barely reaching the inner radius (r2), has contiguous recesses (15, 16) which converge centrally to the middle of the rotary element (13), which, as seen from above the inner area (5) of the frame (23), fit exactly as a counter piece (21, 22) on the key element (19) insertable in the rotary element (13) with corresponding key tongues, and the key element (19) inserted in the rotary element (13) completes the rotary element (13) via the key tongues (21, 22) to obtain a contiguous area element, in such a way that, in conjunction with the inserted key element (19), for the segments (18) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23) within which the rotary element (13) has recesses (15, 16) for the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19), the rotary element (13) at least proportionally fills the inner area (5) of the frame (23) laterally with regard to the rotation axis until reaching the full radius (r1).
  2. Closing device according to claim 1, characterized in that the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19) inserted in the recesses (15, 16) of the rotary element (13) have an extension, in such a way that, for the segments (18) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23) within which the rotary element (13) has recesses for the key tongues (15, 16) of the key element (19), due to the key tongues (15, 16) of the key element (19) entirely inserted in the rotary element (13), the inner area (5) of the frame (23) is filled laterally with regard to the rotation axis at least proportionally until reaching the full radius (r1), so that for these segments (18) too, the blocking heads (24a) are shifted in the outer area (23c) within the frame (23), and the rotary element (13) is not locked anymore in said segments (18), but can be rotated in conjunction with the inserted key element (19).
  3. Closing device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19) are built in mirrored symmetry on two opposing quadrants, in order to provide two possible directions for inserting the key element (19) in the rotary element (13).
  4. Closing device according to one or more of the previous claims, characterized in that the key element (19), when being inserted in the rotary element (13), is kept tightly engaged in the key socket (14) of the rotary element (13) and maintained in this position until the key element (13) is removed, in particular in the open or closed state of the closing device.
  5. Closing device according to one or more of the previous claims, characterized in that the locking action of the closing mechanism from the open state happens by insertion of the key element (19) in the rotary element (13), and the rotary element (13) is subsequently rotated in conjunction with the inserted key element (19) about a determined rotation angle (for instance a quarter turn of 90 degrees), and the key element (19) can subsequently be removed from the rotary element (13).
  6. Closing device according to claim 5, characterized in that the locking action of the closing device between the joined snapping connection socket (2) and the lock-carrying connection socket (1) from the open state of the closing device results from the insertion of the key element (19) in the rotary element (13) and from subsequently rotating the rotary element (13) in conjunction with the inserted key element (19) about a quarter turn (90 degrees) clockwise or counterclockwise, in order for a locking action to occur between the joined connection sockets (1, 2) so that the connection sockets (1, 2) joined in pairs cannot be released from each other and the key element (19) can subsequently be removed from the rotary element (13).
  7. Closing device according to claim 6, characterized in that the locking action of the closing device between the joined snapping connection socket (2) and the lock-carrying connection socket (1) from the closed state of the closing device is canceled by the insertion of the key element (19) in the rotary element (13) and by the subsequent rotation of the rotary element (13) in conjunction with the inserted key element (19) about a quarter turn (90 degrees) in the opposite rotating direction, clockwise or counterclockwise, so that the joined connection sockets (1, 2) can be released from each other again and the key element (19) can subsequently be removed from the rotary element (13).
  8. Closing device according to claim 5, 6 or 7, characterized in that the locking action of the closing device between the joined snapping connection socket (2) and the lock-carrying connection socket (1) from the open state occurs such that the rotary motion of the rotary element (13) in order to close the closing device is transferred via the central axis (25) to the twist-lock (11) in such a way that the twist-lock (11) stays between the connection elements of the joined connection sockets (1, 2), so that the connection sockets (1, 2) cannot be released from each other anymore.
  9. Closing device according to claim 5, 6 or 7, characterized in that the locking action of the closing device according to the invention from the open state of the closing device between the joined snapping connection socket (2) and the lock-carrying connection socket (1) results from transferring the rotary motion of the rotary element (13) not to the continuous twist-lock (11), but to two half locks (11b, 11c), in such a way that a half lock (11b) is moved by a conversion mechanism (26, 27, 28), so that both half locks (11b, 11c) screw in rectified from below, underneath the retaining tongues (9a, 9b) of the snapping connection socket (2), which ensures an improved operation safety.
  10. Closing device according to claim 8 or 9, characterized in that wires are lead within the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19) in a cavity, and these wires can be extended laterally by actuating a mechanical push button on the retaining head (20a) of the key element (19) in such a way that the key element (19) inserted in the rotary element (13) thereby shifts the blocking heads (24b) within the corresponding segments (18) of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23), for which the rotary element (13) has recesses (15, 16) for the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19), in the outer area (23c) within the frame (23), when the key tongues themselves fill the inner area of the frame (13) laterally with regard to the rotation axis without reaching the full radius (r1), and the rotary element (13) is unlocked and rotatable for said segments (18) in conjunction with the inserted key element (19), and in particular the frame (23) can be entirely covered by a lateral linear bearing (23a, 23b) which protects the blocking heads (24a, 24b) mounted within the frame (23) against an external access, notwithstanding that the key element (19) can still be inserted, which insures an improved operation safety.
  11. Closing device according to claim 5, 6 or 7, characterized in that the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19) interact with the blocking heads (24a, 24b) mounted within the frame (23) not mechanically but electromagnetically, by means of magnets mounted behind the blocking heads (24a, 24b) in each blocking head, in such a way that the blocking heads (24a, 24b) are shifted in the outer area (23c) within the frame (23) without mechanical contact with the key tongues (21, 22), and the key tongues (21, 22) of the key element (19) inserted in the rotary element (13), for the corresponding segments (18) provided with recesses of the circle which exteriorly delimits the inner area (5) of the frame (23), must fill the inner area (5) of the frame (23) laterally with regard to the rotation axis without reaching the full radius (r1), in order to be able to unlock the rotary element (13) and rotate it in conjunction with the inserted key element (19), as well as to be able to electrically control the locking action of the closing device via a cross-lock or a twist-lock (11), so that the mechanical transfer of the rotary motion of the rotary element (13) via the central axis (25) of the rotary element (13) is not necessary anymore.
