"Theft prevention stoppers for containers"

The present invention relates to a safety lock for fuel tanks of motor vehicles, i.e. in particular of commercial vehicles such as heavy and light trucks, delivery vans and the like.

The closure according to the invention is a safety plug of the type wherein the movable plug part is in permanent contact with inner tongues of the mouth or inlet edge of the container in question. These tongues are designed so that their lower end in a solution cutout of the plug engages with respect to the inlet opening or mouth of the container. The movements, making the effective parts of the stopper are brought into their closed or open position, are dependent on the respective position of the lock, its longitudinal axis with the axis of rotation of the aforementioned movable plug parts is concurrent, the lock drum being pushed into a guide or blocking path with one of its two ends is.

The realization of the aforementioned characteristics of the

protruding tubular hub sleeve 8 is provided. This sleeve 8 is provided with two continuous coaxial holes 9 and 10 near its free end.

The lock 11, which opens out on the upper side of the aforementioned deep bar 7, is concurrent with the axis C-D of the aforementioned body 1 of the safety plug in question. This lock 11 can by eire around the body 1 attached axis 13 pivoting flap 12 are covered. The free end of the axle or drum 14 of the aforementioned lock 11 is profiled in such a way that it has a protruding part which is suitable with respect to the respective The shape of the guide parts and stops with which the lock interacts is executed.

The aforementioned guide disk 2 consists of a disk, the back of which has a guide and blocking path 15, which in the present case consists of a suitably profiled rib. It also has a central opening 16, the Diameter is slightly larger than the outside diameter of the aforementioned Hub sleeve 8 of the body 1. This opening 16 is bordered with a rib 17, which in turn is on a circumferential rib 18 is connected by radial ribs 19-20-21.

The upper side is provided with stops 22-23-24, which are connected to one another by an annular rib 25 which delimit an annular collar 26 which carries the sealing ring 27.

The relatively thin elastic disc 3 is provided in the present embodiment with radial arms 28-29-30, whose margins 31-32, 33-34 and 35-36 are weak

Have bend. It also has a round central opening 37 and opposite each of the aforementioned arms an incision 38,39 or 40. The driver ring 4 has a hub 41, with which it is in the aforementioned hub shell 8 of the body 1 is pushed in, and is also provided with three arms 42, 43 and 44, of which each cooperates with a cam 45, 46, 47, the task of which is in one of the corresponding notches 38-39-40 of the the aforementioned relatively elastic washer 3 to intervene. In addition, the upper part of this driver ring U with two diametrically opposed incisions 48 and 49 provided, which are in alignment with the holes 9-10 of the Arrange the hub sleeve 8 of the plug body 1. A pin 50 is inserted through these incisions and holes. An elastic ring 51 is located between the aforementioned hub shell 8 and a collar 52 which passes through the inner edge of the central opening 16 and a circular rib 53 provided for this purpose on the aforementioned guide and blocking disk 2 is delimited.

The arrangement of the safety plug according to the invention according to the present embodiment takes place as follows. The guide and blocking disk 2 is inserted into the body 1, such that the side with the aforementioned guide and blocking path 15 faces the aforementioned lock 11.

Then the elastic ring 51 between the circular rib 52 of the disc 2 and the corresponding part of the The hub sleeve 8 of the plug body 1 is pushed in and the relatively elastic disc 3 is on the edge of the aforementioned Driver and block washer by means of the profiled end arranged of the radial arms of this elastic disc. Now the driver ring 4 is on the protruding part of the aforementioned

, 2449Q1Q

Sleeve 8 arranged whose cams 45-46-U? engages with the corresponding incisions 38-39-40 of the aforementioned relatively elastic disc 3 are located.

Finally, the in cuts 48-49 of the aforementioned driver ring arranged pin 50 inserted into the aforementioned holes 9-10 of the hub sleeve 8 of the plug body. As a result, at a certain position of the key 54, the plug is locked due to the engagement of the end of the drum 14 of the lock in the profiled end section of the aforementioned routing and blocking path 15, while the plug in another Position of the aforementioned key can be rotated such that the arms 28-29-30 of the relatively elastic disc 3 in Engaged with the lower part of the tongues 55-56-57 at the edge of the inlet opening or mouth 5 of the container in question will. The stopper can easily be removed from the container in this position. To get it back into its closed position bring, it is sufficient to arrange it in a manner known per se on the inlet opening or mouth of the container and to rotate it around its axis by a certain angle. During this movement, the aforementioned radial arms move 2 8-29-30 of the relatively elastic disc 3 along the aforementioned tongues 55-56-57 of the edge of the inlet opening or Mouth 5 of the container in question. Now the key is turned into its locking position, hence any unwanted Systematic rotation of the stopper, i.e. any undesired opening of the container is systematically prevented.

The anti-theft stopper according to the invention is particularly characterized by a very light and fast one
