Description
LATCH STRUCTURE OF A FIRE DOOR LOCK
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is generally relating to a latch structure of a fire door lock, more particularly to the latch structure of the fire door lock with fireproof and burglarproof functions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Taiwan patent publication No. 568160 disclosed "structure of fireproof doors" is relevant to a fire door lock. Two latch bolts are disposed at an upper end and a lower end of a fire door separately, and the latch bolts can be blocked by two stoppers disposed at a door frame therefore forming a lock state. Usually, the blocked latch bolts departs from the stoppers and leads to an unlock state via actuation of a main lock. Other patents like U.S.
patent number 2,762,642, 4,875,722, 5,464,259, 6,009,732 and 7,070,210 disclosed alternative designs of the fireproof door lock or of the exit door lock.
With reference to Fig. 1, a fire door lock comprises a latch structure 20 disposed at a fire door 10 and a stopper 40 disposed at a door frame 30.
The latch structure 20 comprises at least a lock base 21 and a latch tongue 22 having a blocking surface 23 and a restraining surface 24 opposite to the blocking surface 23. The latch tongue 22 is swingably disposed at the lock base 21. Once the latch structure 20 and the stopper 40 are situated in a lock state, the blocking surface 23 of the latch bolt 22 may contact against the stopper 40 to prevent the fire door 10 from being opened. Once the latch structure 20 and the stopper 40 are situated in an unlock state, the latch bolt 22 is actuated by a main lock (not shown in Figs.) to shrink into the lock base 21. At this time, the latch bolt 22 is not blocked by the stopper 40 to enable the fire door 10 to be opened. With reference to Fig. 2, when the state of the fire door 10 is switched from the unlock state to the lock state, the latch tongue 22 can not be actuated by the main lock to enable the latch tongue 22 to still protrude from the lock base 21. In this moment, the latch bolt 22 must pass through the stopper 40 to form a lock state. Generally, the fire door 10 is actuated by a door closer (not shown in Figs.), once the thrust of the door closer for driving the fire door 10 is insufficient, the stopper 40 contacts against the restraining surface 24, and eventually an unlock situation is formed between the latch structure 20 and the stopper 40.
Therefore, the fireproof and burglarproof functions of the fire door 10 will be all lost via incapability of closing the fire door 10.
Besides, referring to Fig. 1, by using appropriate tools, the latch bolt 22 of the latch structure 20 can be easily pushed and shrunk into the lock base 21 by a thief to form an unlock state between the latch structure 20 and the stopper 40. Therefore, the burglarproof function will be lost.
With reference to Fig. 2, the latch bolt 20 disposed at the fire door 10 merely blocks the stopper 40 disposed at the door frame 30, once a fire . occurred, the fire would burn and deform the door frame 30 or the fire door 10. Accordingly, the stopper 40 can not block the latch bolt 20 of the latch 40 disposed at deformed fire door 10. Therefore, the fireproof function of the fire door 10 would be all lost.

The fixing rod comprises a first fixing end and a second fixing end, wherein the first fixing end and the second fixing end are fixed at the first lateral portion and the second lateral portion respectively. When the latch bolt moves to the projected position, the penetrating bolt and the fixing rod may define a line which crosses the path, wherein the combining pin moves toward the bottom portion of the lock base along the path and stops moving until the combining pin crosses the line.
Accordingly, when a thief tends to push the latch bolt into the lock base by using tools, the latch bolt can not shrink into the latch base by means of position limitation of the combining pin. Therefore, the burglarproof function can be effectively achieved in this invention.
The secondary object of this invention is to provide a latch structure of the fire door lock further comprising a blocking member and an elastic member, wherein the blocking member comprises a blocking plate, a contacting portion and a restraining slot positioned beneath the blocking plate. The elastic member comprises a first end, and the contacting portion
The latch unit comprises a latch bolt, an actuating member, a penetrating bolt and a combining pin, and mentioned latch unit is swingably disposed at the accommodating slot of the lock base. The latch bolt can be driven by the combining pin between a projected position and a retracted position in response to the movement of the actuating member. The combining pin is configured to move along a path. The liking set is disposed at the accommodating slot and comprises at least one first coupling member, and the combining pin is pivotally connected with the first coupling member and the latch unit. The fixing rod comprises a first fixing end and a second fixing end, wherein the first fixing end and the second fixing end are fixed at the first lateral portion and the second lateral portion respectively. When the latch bolt moves to the projected position, the penetrating bolt and the fixing rod may define a line which crosses the path, wherein the combining pin moves toward the bottom portion of the lock base along the path and stops moving until the combining pin crosses the line.
Accordingly, when a thief tends to push the latch bolt into the lock base by using tools, the latch bolt can not shrink into the latch base by means of position limitation of the combining pin. Therefore, the burglarproof function can be effectively achieved in this invention.
The secondary object of this invention is to provide a latch structure of the fire door lock further comprising a blocking member and an elastic member, wherein the blocking member comprises a blocking plate, a contacting portion and a restraining slot positioned beneath the blocking plate. The elastic member comprises a first end, and the contacting portion
3 of the blocking member can be pressed by the first end. The restraining slot is corresponded to the latch bolt. Once the fire door is situated in an unlock state, the latch bolt can be shrunk into the lock base to enable the blocking member to swing toward the latch bolt via elasticity of the elastic member, and the latch bolt is accommodated into the restraining slot of the blocking member. At last, the blocking plate of the blocking member contacts against a restraining surface of the latch bolt. When the state of the fire door is switched from an unlock state into the lock state, the latch bolt may pass through a stopper disposed at a door frame rather than being blocked by the stopper. Eventually, the blocking member may prop against the stopper to enable the latch bolt to depart from the restraining slot of the blocking member and protrude from the lock base to from a lock state.

Therefore, the latch bolt 121 of the latch unit 120 is protruded from the lock base 110, and the stopper 400 is located between the latch bolt 121 and the blocking member 130. In this embodiment, the blocking surface 121a is utilized for contacting against the front surface 410 of the stopper 400. Therefore, the latch bolt 121 can be blocked by the stopper 400 to prevent the fire door 200 from being opened. The combining pin 122 is pivotally connected with the first coupling members 151 and the actuating members 123 and configured to move along a path R. The first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 can be restrained within the first recess 112b, and the second end portion 122b can be restrained within the second recess 113b. When the latch bolt 121 is pressed by external force, a thrust force is generated and tends to push the latch bolt 121 into the lock base 110. With reference to Fig. 6, the penetrating bolt 124 and the fixing rod 160 may define a line L which crosses the path R. The combining pin 122 slidably moves toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110 along the path R, and stops moving until the combining pin 122 passes across the line L defined by the penetrating bolt 124 and the fixing rod 160, wherein the path R is viewed as the moving trace of the core of the combining pin 122, and the line L is a straight line which links the core of the penetrating bolt 124 and the core of the fixing rod 160. Besides, the combining pin 122 is configured to be spaced from the line L to the bottom portion 111 when the latch bolt 121 is located at the projected position. In this moment, the combining pin 122 can not move upwardly along the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a. However, the first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 contacts against the first recess 112b, and the second end portion 122b contacts against the second recess 113b to enable the combining pin 122 to stop moving toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110 along with the first and the second sliding slot 112a, 113a in counterclockwise direction.
Accordingly, the latch bolt 121 may not be pushed into the lock base 110 via the actuation of the combining pin 122. The combining pin 122 and the actuating members 123 supports the latch bolt 121 to prevent the latch bolt 121 from being pushed into the lock base 110 by external force to lead an unlock situation.
Otherwise, the first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 may contact against the first restraining recess 133a of the first lateral plate 133, and the second end portion 122b may contact against the second restraining recess 134a of the second lateral plate 134. Therefore, the combining pin 122 can not be actuated by the latch bolt 121 and can not separate from the first restraining recess 133a and the second restraining recess 134a.
Mentioned design may prevent the latch bolt 121 from being pushed into the lock base 110 by external force to lead an unlock situation.
In another embodiment with reference to Fig. 9, when the latch bolt 121 moves to the projected position, the combining pin 122 moves toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110 along the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a, and the combining pin 122 is configured to be at a crossing point P where the line L meets the path R when the latch bolt 121 is reached and located at the projected position. When the latch bolt 121 is at the projected position and pressed by external force, the combining pin 122 can not slidably move toward or backward along with the first slot 112a and the second slot 113a because the external force only acts in the direction to the fixing pin 160 ( i.e. the line L) without acting in others directions.
Accordingly, the combining pin 122 only tends to move toward the fixing pin 160 along the line L, however, the combining pin 122 remains stable because the walls of the first slot 112a and the second slot 113a block the combining pin 122 to move further along the line L. Therefore, the latch bolt 121 can not be pushed into the lock base 110 by linkage of the combining pin 122 to avoid an unlock situation.
Referring to Figs. 4 and 9, when the latch bolt 121 projects from the accommodating slot 114 of the lock base 110, an accommodating space S
can be defined between the blocking member 130 and the latch bolt 121, and the stopper 400 can be fitted inside the accommodating space S to enable the fastener B1 to fasten with the stopper 400. Firmly fastened relationship between the stopper 400 and the latch bolt 121 may prevent the stopper 400 from being unable to block the latch bolt 121 via deformed fire door 200 or deformed door frame 300 under fire condition. Referring to Fig. 10, the relative position between the latch bolt 121 and the front surface 410 of the stopper 400 might be changed via deformed fire door 200, but the fastener B1 is still fastened at the accommodating portion Cl. Accordingly, the lock state of the fire door 200 can be remained, and the flame will be restrained by the fire door 200 under fire condition to achieve fireproof function.
Furthermore, the accommodating portion Cl is formed inside the stopper 400. When the fastener B1 is fastened at the accommodating portion Cl, a big contact area between the blocking member 130 and the accommodating portion Cl is formed to increase overall friction force to avoid the fastener B1 to be departed from the stopper 400. Therefore, the fire door 200 is steadily maintained in the lock state.
When the latch bolt 121 projects from the lock base 110, the combining pin 122 of the latch unit 120 is positioned far from the contacting portion 132 of the blocking member 130. Besides, for the reason that the contacting portion 132 of the blocking member 130 is pressed by the first end 141 and the second end 142 of the elastic member 140 coupled by the combining pin 122 of the latch unit 120, the elastic member 140 can be formed into a stretched state. The stretched elastic member 140 may generate an elasticity to pull the blocking member 130 back to the direction of the latch bolt 121. Accordingly, the fastener B1 can be firmly fastened at the accommodating portion Cl to enable the fire door 200 to be firmly maintained in the lock state.
Figure 11 is a schematic diagram illustrating an unlock state formed between the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 and the stopper 400.
With reference to Figs. 4, 11, 12 and 13, the pivoting rod 180 can be driven by the coupling rod 170 to move upwardly along each of the longitudinal sliding slots 115, in the meantime, the second coupling member 152 of the coupling set 150 can be driven by the pivoting rod 180 to pivot toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110. Besides, the first coupling members 151 is pivotally connected with the second coupling member 152 to enable the first coupling members 151 to swing via the fixing rod 160 serving as a shaft. Due to the interconnection between the combining pin 122, the first coupling members 151 of the coupling set 150 and the actuating members 123 of the latch unit 120 and the movement limitation of the combining pin 122 within the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a, when the combining pin 122 is actuated by the first coupling members 151, the combining pin 122 moves outwardly along with the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a to enable the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b to depart from the first recess 112b and the second recess 113b respectively. In the mean time, the actuating members 123 can be actuated by the combining pin 122, and the latch bolt 121 can be actuated by the actuating members 123 to enable the latch bolt 121 to shrink into the lock base 110. Meanwhile, the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b of the combining pin 122 are departed from the first recess 112b and the second recess 113b respectively to enable the blocking member 130 to stop being restrained by the combining pin 122. Furthermore, the blocking member 130 can be actuated by elasticity of the elastic member 140 to swing via the fixing rod 160 serving as a shaft. Also, the latch bolt 121 is accommodated into the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130, and the blocking plate 131 of the blocking member 130 contacts against the restraining surface 121b of the latch bolt 121 to prevent the latch bolt 121 from protruding to the lock base 110. Accordingly, when the state of the fire door 200 is switched from the unlock state to the lock state, the latch bolt 121 may pass through the stopper 400 rather than blocked by the stopper 400. T he blocking member 130 may prop against the stopper 400 to enable the latch bolt 121 to depart from the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130, and then the latch bolt 121 can not be blocked by the blocking member 130. At last, the latch bolt 121 is protruded from the lock base 110 and enables the stopper 400 located between the latch bolt 121 and the stopper 130 to form a lock state.
In this invention, when the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 is situated in the lock state, the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b of the combining pin 122 are restrained within the first recess 112b of the first sliding slot 112a and the second recess 113b of the second sliding slot 113a respectively. Therefore, the restraining function of the combining pin 122 is completely achieved. Or, the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b of the combining pin 122 can be restrained within the first restraining recess 133a of the first lateral plate 133 and the second restraining recess 134a of the second lateral plate 134 respectively.
The first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 contacts against the first recess 112b or the first restraining recess 133a, and the second end portion 122b contacts against the second recess 113b or the second restraining recess 134a to prevent the latch bolt 121 from being pushed into the lock base 110 by external force to lead an unlock situation. Therefore, the burglarproof function of the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 can be significantly raised. Besides, when the fire door 200 is situated in the unlock state, the latch bolt 121 is shrunk into the lock base 110, and the blocking member 130 is swingable toward the latch bolt 121 via the fixing rod 160 serving as a shaft. The latch bolt 121 is accommodated into the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130, and the blocking plate 131 of the blocking member 130 contacts against the restraining surface 121b of the latch bolt 121. When the state of the fire door 200 is switched from the unlock state to the lock state, owing to the contact between the blocking plate 131of the blocking member 130 and the restraining surface 121b of the latch bolt 121, the latch bolt 121 may pass through the stopper 400 easily. When the latch bolt 121 has passed through the stopper 400, the blocking member 130 may prop against the stopper 400 to enable the latch bolt 121 to depart from the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130. Eventually, the latch bolt = CA 02762906 2013-05-10 . -121 is protruded from the lock base 110 therefore forming the lock state.
The burglarproof and fireproof functions of the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 can be completely achieved.
Referring to Figs. 4, 6 and 7, a lock state is formed between the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 and a stopper 400 disposed at a door frame 300, wherein mentioned latch structure of the fire door lock 100 can be fastened by the stopper 400. The blocking member 130 is fastened at the stopper 400 via the pair of male and female means B, C. The quantity of mentioned first lateral plate 132 and the male means B are two separately.
In this embodiment, the stopper 400 comprises a rear surface 420 adjacent to the fire door 200 and a front surface 410 opposite to the rear surface 420, the female means C comprises an accommodating portion Cl formed at the rear surface 420. The lock base 110 further comprises a top portion 116, and the male means B comprises a fastener B1 formed at the blocking member 130 and protruded to the top portion 116 of the lock base 110. The fastener B1 can be fastened at the accommodating portion Cl, wherein the fastener B1 of the male means B and the contacting portion 135 are formed at the first lateral plate 133. Furthermore, the blocking member 130 is actuated by elasticity of the elastic member 140 to enable the fastener B1 to fasten with the stopper 400.
With reference to Figs. 4, 6, 7 and 8, when the combining pin 122 is actuated by the first linking member 151 of the linking set 150, the latch bolt 121 can be driven by the combining pin 122 simultaneously. Therefore, the latch bolt 121 of the latch unit 120 is protruded from the lock base 110, and the stopper 400 is located between the latch bolt 121 and the blocking member 130. In this embodiment, the blocking surface 121a is utilized for contacting against the front surface 410 of the stopper 400. Therefore, the latch bolt 121 can be blocked by the stopper 400 to prevent the fire door 200 from being opened. The combining pin 122 is pivotally connected with the first coupling members 151 and the actuating members 123 and configured to move along a path R. The first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 can be restrained within the first recess 112b, and the second end portion 122b can be restrained within the second recess 113b. When the latch bolt 121 is pressed by external force, a thrust force is generated and tends to push the latch bolt 121 into the lock base 110. With reference to Fig. 6, the penetrating bolt 124 and the fixing rod 160 may define a line L which crosses the path R. The combining pin 122 slidably moves toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110 along the path R, and stops moving until the combining pin 122 passes across the line L defined by the penetrating bolt 124 and the fixing rod 160, wherein the path R is viewed as the moving trace of the core of the combining pin 122, and the line L is a straight line which links the core of the penetrating bolt 124 and the core of the fixing rod 160. Besides, the combining pin 122 is configured to be spaced from the line L to the bottom portion 111 when the latch bolt 121 is located at the projected position. In this moment, the combining pin 122 can not move upwardly along the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a. However, the first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 contacts against the first recess 112b, and the second end portion 122b contacts against the second recess 113b to enable the combining pin 122 to stop moving toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110 along with the first and the second sliding slot 112a, 113a in counterclockwise direction.
Accordingly, the latch bolt 121 may not be pushed into the lock base 110 via the actuation of the combining pin 122. The combining pin 122 and the actuating members 123 supports the latch bolt 121 to prevent the latch bolt 121 from being pushed into the lock base 110 by external force to lead an unlock situation.
Otherwise, the first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 may contact against the first restraining recess 133a of the first lateral plate 133, and the second end portion 122b may contact against the second restraining recess 134a of the second lateral plate 134. Therefore, the combining pin 122 can not be actuated by the latch bolt 121 and can not separate from the first restraining recess 133a and the second restraining recess 134a.
Mentioned design may prevent the latch bolt 121 from being pushed into the lock base 110 by external force to lead an unlock situation.
In another embodiment with reference to Fig. 9, when the latch bolt 121 moves to the projected position, the combining pin 122 moves toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110 along the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a, and the combining pin 122 is configured to be at a crossing point P where the line L meets the path R when the latch bolt 121 is reached and located at the projected position. When the latch bolt 121 is at the projected position and pressed by external force, the combining pin 122 can not slidably move toward or backward along with the first slot 112a and the second slot 113a because the external force only acts in the direction to the fixing pin 160 ( i.e. the line L) without acting in others directions.
Accordingly, the combining pin 122 only tends to move toward the fixing pin 160 along the line L, however, the combining pin 122 remains stable because the walls of the first slot 112a and the second slot 113a block the combining pin 122 to move further along the line L. Therefore, the latch bolt 121 can not be pushed into the lock base 110 by linkage of the combining pin 122 to avoid an unlock situation.
Referring to Figs. 4 and 9, when the latch bolt 121 projects from the accommodating slot 114 of the lock base 110, an accommodating space S
can be defined between the blocking member 130 and the latch bolt 121, and the stopper 400 can be fitted inside the accommodating space S to enable the fastener B1 to fasten with the stopper 400. Firmly fastened relationship between the stopper 400 and the latch bolt 121 may prevent the stopper 400 from being unable to block the latch bolt 121 via deformed fire door 200 or deformed door frame 300 under fire condition. Referring to Fig. 10, the relative position between the latch bolt 121 and the front surface 410 of the stopper 400 might be changed via deformed fire door 200, but the fastener B1 is still fastened at the accommodating portion Cl. Accordingly, the lock state of the fire door 200 can be remained, and the flame will be restrained by the fire door 200 under fire condition to achieve fireproof function.
Furthermore, the accommodating portion Cl is formed inside the stopper 400. When the fastener B1 is fastened at the accommodating portion Cl, a big contact area between the blocking member 130 and the accommodating portion Cl is formed to increase overall friction force to avoid the fastener B1 to be departed from the stopper 400. Therefore, the fire door 200 is steadily maintained in the lock state.
When the latch bolt 121 projects from the lock base 110, the combining pin 122 of the latch unit 120 is positioned far from the contacting portion 132 of the blocking member 130. Besides, for the reason that the contacting portion 132 of the blocking member 130 is pressed by the first end 141 and the second end 142 of the elastic member 140 coupled by the combining pin 122 of the latch unit 120, the elastic member 140 can be formed into a stretched state. The stretched elastic member 140 may generate an elasticity to pull the blocking member 130 back to the direction of the latch bolt 121. Accordingly, the fastener B1 can be firmly fastened at the accommodating portion Cl to enable the fire door 200 to be firmly maintained in the lock state.
Figure 11 is a schematic diagram illustrating an unlock state formed between the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 and the stopper 400.
With reference to Figs. 4, 11, 12 and 13, the pivoting rod 180 can be driven by the coupling rod 170 to move upwardly along each of the longitudinal sliding slots 115, in the meantime, the second coupling member 152 of the coupling set 150 can be driven by the pivoting rod 180 to pivot toward the bottom portion 111 of the lock base 110. Besides, the first coupling members 151 is pivotally connected with the second coupling member 152 to enable the first coupling members 151 to swing via the fixing rod 160 serving as a shaft. Due to the interconnection between the combining pin 122, the first coupling members 151 of the coupling set 150 and the actuating members 123 of the latch unit 120 and the movement limitation of the combining pin 122 within the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a, when the combining pin 122 is actuated by the first coupling members 151, the combining pin 122 moves outwardly along with the first sliding slot 112a and the second sliding slot 113a to enable the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b to depart from the first recess 112b and the second recess 113b respectively. In the mean time, the actuating members 123 can be actuated by the combining pin 122, and the latch bolt 121 can be actuated by the actuating members 123 to enable the latch bolt 121 to shrink into the lock base 110. Meanwhile, the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b of the combining pin 122 are departed from the first recess 112b and the second recess 113b respectively to enable the blocking member 130 to stop being restrained by the combining pin 122. Furthermore, the blocking member 130 can be actuated by elasticity of the elastic member 140 to swing via the fixing rod 160 serving as a shaft. Also, the latch bolt 121 is accommodated into the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130, and the blocking plate 131 of the blocking member 130 contacts against the restraining surface 121b of the latch bolt 121 to prevent the latch bolt 121 from protruding to the lock base 110. Accordingly, when the state of the fire door 200 is switched from the unlock state to the lock state, the latch bolt 121 may pass through the stopper 400 rather than blocked by the stopper 400. T he blocking member 130 may prop against the stopper 400 to enable the latch bolt 121 to depart from the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130, and then the latch bolt 121 can not be blocked by the blocking member 130. At last, the latch bolt 121 is protruded from the lock base 110 and enables the stopper 400 located between the latch bolt 121 and the stopper 130 to form a lock state.
In this invention, when the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 is situated in the lock state, the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b of the combining pin 122 are restrained within the first recess 112b of the first sliding slot 112a and the second recess 113b of the second sliding slot 113a respectively. Therefore, the restraining function of the combining pin 122 is completely achieved. Or, the first end portion 122a and the second end portion 122b of the combining pin 122 can be restrained within the first restraining recess 133a of the first lateral plate 133 and the second restraining recess 134a of the second lateral plate 134 respectively.
The first end portion 122a of the combining pin 122 contacts against the first recess 112b or the first restraining recess 133a, and the second end portion 122b contacts against the second recess 113b or the second restraining recess 134a to prevent the latch bolt 121 from being pushed into the lock base 110 by external force to lead an unlock situation. Therefore, the burglarproof function of the latch structure of the fire door lock 100 can be significantly raised. Besides, when the fire door 200 is situated in the unlock state, the latch bolt 121 is shrunk into the lock base 110, and the blocking member 130 is swingable toward the latch bolt 121 via the fixing rod 160 serving as a shaft. The latch bolt 121 is accommodated into the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130, and the blocking plate 131 of the blocking member 130 contacts against the restraining surface 121b of the latch bolt 121. When the state of the fire door 200 is switched from the unlock state to the lock state, owing to the contact between the blocking plate 131of the blocking member 130 and the restraining surface 121b of the latch bolt 121, the latch bolt 121 may pass through the stopper 400 easily. When the latch bolt 121 has passed through the stopper 400, the blocking member 130 may prop against the stopper 400 to enable the latch bolt 121 to depart from the restraining slot 132 of the blocking member 130. Eventually, the latch bolt = CA 02762906 2013-05-10 . -121 is protruded from the lock base 110 therefore forming the lock state.
