Description
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de serrure notamment pour valise.The present invention relates to a lock device in particular for a suitcase.
On connaît différents dispositifs de serrure notamment pour la fermeture de valises et comportant des pênes solidaires de l'un des éléments de la valise et qui s'engagent dans des lumières de barres coulissantes prévues sur l'autre élément de la valise.Various lock devices are known, in particular for closing suitcases and comprising bolts integral with one of the elements of the suitcase and which engage in lights of sliding bars provided on the other element of the suitcase.
Toutefois, la fermeture de ces serrures implique un déplacement synchronisé des barres à lumières pour obtenir un verrouillage satisfaisant, surtout lorsque la valise est surchargée.However, closing these locks involves synchronized movement of the light bars to obtain satisfactory locking, especially when the case is overloaded.
Par le brevet FR - A 1.139.917, on connaît une serrure pour valise comportant des éléments susceptibles d'être assemblés, dont l'un comporte des pênes à encoche latérale et à surface extrême inclinée formant came et dont l'autre comporte des gâches dans lesquelles sont engagés les pênes, des crochets susceptibles d'être engagés dans les encoches des pênes, sous l'action d'organes élastiques étant montés pivotants dans les gâches.By patent FR - A 1,139,917, a lock is known for a suitcase comprising elements capable of being assembled, one of which comprises bolts with lateral notch and with inclined end surface forming a cam and the other of which includes strikes in which the bolts are engaged, hooks capable of being engaged in the notches of the bolts, under the action of elastic members being pivotally mounted in the strikes.
Il est également connu par le brevet US - A 3.135.105 un dispositif de serrure pour valise comportant un dispositif de commande de crochets s'engageant dans des pênes, ces crochets étant commandés par un mécanisme à barre.It is also known from US Pat. No. 3,135,105 a lock device for a suitcase comprising a hook control device engaging in bolts, these hooks being controlled by a bar mechanism.
Or ces dispositifs comportent deux demi- barres de commande qui sont reliées rigidement aux crochets par un organe de liaison central et ne permettent pas d'engager isolément les encoches des pênes dans les crochets, comme dans la présente demande.However, these devices comprise two half control bars which are rigidly connected to the hooks by a central connecting member and do not allow the notches of the bolts to be engaged in isolation in the hooks, as in the present application.
Conformément à la présente invention, les crochets sont reliés à une barre de commande d'ouverture et à une barre de verrouillage montées coulissantes axialement dans un boîtier, la barre de commande d'ouverture présentant à ses deux extrémités des lumières dans lesquelles sont engagés des tétons solidaires des crochets les extrémités des lumières venant en contact avec les tétons en fonction de la position de la barre de commande d'une manière telle que les crochets puissent ètre soit engagés dans les pènes soit en être dégagés sous l'effet du mouvement de la barre de commande, ladite barre présentant dans sa partie médiane deux organes de butée coopérant avec les parois du boîtier, l'un des organes comportant un orifice dans lequel est engagé un doigt d'un organe de commande et la barre de verrouillage présentant à l'une de ses extrémités une lumière dans laquelle est engagé le téton solidaire de l'un des crochets, l'autre extrémité de la barre étant susceptible de venir en appui contre le téton solidaire de l'autre crochet, l'extrémité de la barre de verrouillage et une extrémité de la lumière étant disposées d'une manière telle que lorsque la barre de verrouillage est mise en position de verrouillage lesdites extrémités viennent en appui respectivement contre chacun des tétons empêchant ainsi le mouvement de pivotement des crochets, ladite barre présentant dans sa partie centrale deux organes de butée coopérant avec les parois du boîtier, l'un des organes comportant un épaulement contre lequel est susceptible de venir en appui une came commandée par un organe de verrouillage, notamment une serrure à barillet.In accordance with the present invention, the hooks are connected to an opening control bar and to a locking bar mounted to slide axially in a housing, the opening control bar having at its two ends lights in which are engaged nipples integral with the hooks the ends of the lights coming into contact with the nipples according to the position of the control bar in such a way that the hooks can either be engaged in the bolts or be released under the effect of the movement of the control bar, said bar having in its middle part two stop members cooperating with the walls of the housing, one of the members comprising an orifice in which a finger of a control member is engaged and the locking bar having one of its ends a light in which is engaged the stud secured to one of the hooks, the other end of the bar being capable of coming into abutment be the stud secured to the other hook, the end of the locking bar and one end of the lumen being arranged in such a way that when the locking bar is put in the locking position, said ends bear respectively against each of the pins thus preventing the pivoting movement of the hooks, said bar having in its central part two abutment members cooperating with the walls of the housing, one of the members comprising a shoulder against which a cam controlled by a locking member, in particular a cylinder lock.
Cette disposition permet de fermer la valise, même lorsque celle-ci est surchargée, en exerçant d'abord une pression sur un premier côté de la valise pour obtenir la fermeture de celui-ci et en exerçant ensuite une pression de l'autre côté pour obtenir la fermeture du deuxième côté, sans déverrouiller la premier côté fermé.This arrangement makes it possible to close the bag, even when it is overloaded, by first exerting pressure on one side of the bag to obtain the closure thereof and then exerting pressure on the other side to obtain the closure of the second side, without unlocking the first side closed.
Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, dans sa partie centrale, le boîteir présente un logement dans lequel est engagée en position de fermeture l'extrémité d'un doigt de guidage solidaire de l'élément de valise portant les pênes, ledit doigt étant repoussé par un poussoir disposé dans le fond du logement et soumis à l'action d'un organe élastique.According to another characteristic of the invention, in its central part, the box has a housing in which is engaged in the closed position the end of a guide finger integral with the suitcase element carrying the bolts, said finger being repelled by a pusher disposed in the bottom of the housing and subjected to the action of an elastic member.
Cette disposition permet une ouverture très facile de la valise qui est aidée par le poussoir agissant sur le doigt de guidage.This arrangement allows very easy opening of the bag which is helped by the pusher acting on the guide finger.
En ce qui concerne la manoeuvre du dispositif de serrure suivant l'invention, celle-ci ne comporte que trois opérations pour l'ouverture ou la fermeture, alors que les serrures connues réclament un plus grand nombre d'opérations.Regarding the operation of the lock device according to the invention, it comprises only three operations for opening or closing, while the known locks require a greater number of operations.
Enfin l'utilisation de barres flexibles pour la commande des crochets, permet de monter le dispositif sur n'importe quel type de bagage présentant un profil arrondi.Finally the use of flexible bars for the control of the hooks, allows the device to be mounted on any type of luggage with a rounded profile.

Le mouvement des tétons 17, 17a est autorisé en raison de la présence des lumières 24, 24a prévues dans la barre de commande 20 et de la lumière 33 dans la barre de verrouillage 21. Au cours de la fermeture, le doigt 40 est engagé dans le logement 41, comprimant le ressort 43 du poussoir 42. Pour assurer le verrouillage, il suffit d'agir sur la clé de la serrure 38 afin de faire pivoter la came 37 qui repousse la butée 35 contre le bossage 22 du boîtier 3, maintenant la butée 35 prisonnière entre la came 37 et la bossage 22. La barre de verrouillage 21 entraînée vers la gauche vient en appui par sa face 34 contre le téton 17 et par sa face 33a contre le téton 17a empêchant ainsi tout déplacement par pivotement des crochets 12, 12a autour le leurs axes 13, 13a et leur désengagement des encoches prévues dans les pênes.The movement of the
Le déverrouillage s'effectue de manière inverse, en agissant sur la serrure pour faire tourner la came 37 qui libère la butée 36 et par suite la barre 21, permettant ainsi son déplacement vers la droite lorsu'on actionne les crochets au moyen de la barre de commande 20.Unlocking is carried out in reverse, by acting on the lock to rotate the
Pour ouvrir le couvercle de la valise, il suffit d'agir sur le poussoir 30 qui pivote autour de son axe 31 pour occuper la position représentée en trait interoumpu et le doigt 29 du poussoir agit sur la barre de commande 20 (figures 8, 10) qui se déplace vers la droite, de telle sorte que les tétons 17, 17a solidaires des crochets 12, 12a font pivoter ces derniers autour des axes 13, 13a et dégagent ceux-ci des encoches 14, 14a des pênes 1, 1 a. Les pênes n'étant plus retenus par les crochets, ils peuvent être dégagés des gâches 14, 14a, le doigt 40 aidant à l'ouverture sous l'action du poussoir 42 et de son ressort 43.To open the cover of the suitcase, it suffices to act on the
Aux figures 11, 12 et 13, on a représenté un autre moyen de commande de la barre 20 dans lequel un poussoir 44 est monté coulissant longitudinalement sur la plaque de base 9 de la poignée dans laquelle il est prévu un trou oblong 45 traversé par un doigt 46 du poussoir qui se déplace dans ledit trou et qui est maintenu par une rondelle élastique 47. L'extrémité du doigt 46 est engagé dans l'orifice 28 de la barre de commande 20 pour l'entraînement de celle-ci, comme il a été décrit ci-dessus.Figures 11, 12 and 13, there is shown another control means of the
A la figure 15, on a représenté un autre mode de réalisation du moyen de commande de la barre 20, dans lequel un poussoir 48 est monté pivotant autour d'un axe 49 solidaire de la plaque de base 9 de la poignée. A l'extrémité opposée de l'axe 49, le poussoir 48 présente un logement 50 dans lequel est monté coulissant un bossage 51 a d'un levier 51 monté pivotant autour d'un axe 52 parallèle à l'axe 49 et solidaire de la plaque de base 9 de la poignée. Le levier 51 est solidaire d'un doigt 53 qui est engagé dans l'orifice 28 de la barre de commande 20 pour l'entraînement de celle-ci, comme il a été décrit ci-dessus.In Figure 15, there is shown another embodiment of the control means of the
