Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure with a locking element inserted into a lock housing, in which the lock housing is inserted into an opening in a door leaf and held therein by means of a holding element, in which the actuating element of the locking element is connected to a rotary bolt on the inside of the door leaf, and in which the lock housing and the opening in the door leaf have the same cross section.
  • Such a closure is known from DE 28 34 654 A1.
  • the cross section of the opening in the door leaf and the cross section of the lock housing are round. Without additional fasteners, the lock cannot be secured in the opening in the door leaf in a rotationally secure manner.
  • a twist-proof fastening of the lock is very important, however, since when the lock is closed, a torque is exerted that can also be transmitted to the lock housing.
  • Another difficulty arises when control cabinet doors of a control cabinet have a non-conductive surface covering and the lock has to be connected in an electrically conductive manner to the base material of the cabinet door. This often requires specially designed washers that pierce the surface with molded tips.
  • the lock housing and the opening in the door leaf have the same cross-section, preferably a square cross-section, that the holding element as a holding cage with a holding plate and support legs encloses the lock housing on the inside of the door leaf, that the lock housing on the Support legs of the holding cage have coordinated and aligned recesses, that the support legs each end in a holding attachment and a support claw, that the support attachments of the support legs protrude into the free spaces remaining between the lock housing and the opening, while the support claws of the support legs surround the opening on the inside of the Support the door leaf, and that the retaining cage is held on the lock housing by means of the rotary bolt.
  • the lock is very quick and easy to assemble, since the lock housing with the locking element is only inserted from the front into the opening in the door leaf. Then the holding cage is placed on the inside of the door leaf on the lock housing and the rotary bolt is connected to the actuator of the lock element.
  • the support lugs of the support legs fix the support cage and the support claws penetrate the surface layer of the door leaf, so that an electrical connection is made from the door leaf via the support cage to the rotary latch and the closing element.
  • the cutouts run along the corner edges of the lock housing and the flat, equally aligned support legs of the holding cage in two positions rotated by 90 °, then the retaining cage can be placed in any position on the lock housing.
  • the design is such that the holding plate of the holding cage is provided on the side facing away from the lock housing with stops for limiting the rotary movement of the rotary bolt.
  • This allows the end positions of the rotary bolt to be adapted to the type of stop on the door leaf.
  • the end positions are determined in that one stop cooperates with the long side of the rotary latch, while the other stop cooperates with an extension on the rotary latch, and that the stops are bent on two opposite sides of the holding plate in the direction of the rotary latch.
  • the electrical contact between the holding cage and the door leaf is reliably established in that the support claws run into a tip or a pointed edge and in that the holding cage is made of an elastic metal.
  • the placement of the retaining cage on the lock housing is not affected by the actuator of the closing element if it is provided that the retaining plate of the retaining cage has a central opening for the actuator of the closing element and is supported on the side of the lock housing facing away from the door leaf.
  • the rotationally fixed connection between the rotary latch and the actuating member of the closing element is achieved in that the actuating member of the closing element has a square cross section and in that the rotary latch is held non-rotatably on the actuating member with a corresponding square receptacle.
  • a preferred embodiment is characterized in that the locking element is designed as a locking cylinder and is connected to a lock plate on the outside of the door leaf.
  • the lock plate and the lock housing are formed in one piece.
  • the square opening 11 is introduced into the door leaf 10, into which the lock housing 14 with an essentially square cross section is inserted, as can be seen in FIG. 1.
  • the cross section of the opening 11 and the lock housing 14 can also take other forms.
  • the lock housing 14 is closed with the lock plate 12 and receives as a locking element 13 a locking cylinder, the actuator 19 of which protrudes from the lock housing 14.
  • the corner edges of the lock housing 14 are provided up to the lock plate 12 with recesses 15, 16 and 17, which are designed so that they can accommodate a flat square part in two positions rotated by 90 ° without exceeding the cross section predetermined by the opening 11.
  • the holding cage 20 is placed on the part of the lock housing 14 which protrudes on the inside of the door leaf 10.
  • the holding cage 20 has a holding plate 27 with a central opening 21 for the actuator 19 of the closing element 19, which is supported on the lock housing 14.
  • four support legs 22 are folded, which are all aligned in the same way as shown in FIG. 1. All support legs 22 terminate in retaining lugs 23 and supporting claws 24, the retaining lugs 23 facing inwards and the supporting claws 24 facing outwards.
  • the cutouts 15, 16 and 17 along the corner edges of the lock housing 14 create free spaces 18 between the opening 11 and the lock housing 14, into which the retaining lugs 23 of the retaining cage 20 are inserted.
  • the support claws 24 lie outside the opening 11 and are supported with tips or pointed edges on the inside of the door leaf 10, penetrating an applied electrically non-conductive surface covering and establishing an electrical connection to the door leaf 10, as the view according to FIG. 2 clearly shows . If the opening 11 and the lock housing 14 are square, the closure can be installed in four different positions. The same also applies to the placement of the holding cage 20 on the lock housing 14.
  • the holding plate 27 has stops 25 and 26 which are bent outwards on two opposite side edges and which fix the end positions of the rotary bolt 30. In the end position shown in FIG.
  • the rotary bolt 30 rests with its long side of the beard 32 against the stop 25. If the locking bar 30 is turned up 90 °, the shoulder 33 of the locking bar 30 strikes the stop 26 of the holding plate 27. With the position of the holding cage 20 on the lock housing 14, the end positions of the rotary bolt 30 can therefore be determined.
  • the rotary latch 30 has the square seat 31, with which it is fixed non-rotatably on the square actuator 19 of the closing element 13.
  • the screw 34 is screwed into an end-face threaded receptacle of the actuator 19. As a result, not only is the rotary bolt 30 connected to the actuating member 19, at the same time the holding cage 20 is pressed against the facing end face of the lock housing 14.
  • the holding cage 20 is made of elastic metal and the retaining lugs 23 of the support legs 22 protrude beyond the support claws 24 by an amount which is slightly less than the thickness of the door leaf 10. In this way, the support claws 24 of the support legs 22 of the support cage 20 can always be on the Support the inside of the door leaf 10. It is only necessary to ensure that the support legs 22 have a sufficient length in the area of the support claws 24, which is slightly larger than the part of the lock housing 14 protruding from the inside of the door leaf 10.
  • the stepped recesses 15, 16 and 17 on the lock housing 14 show that the flat, equally aligned support legs 22 also find a place when the holding cage 20 is placed on the lock housing 14 offset by 90 °.
  • the retaining lugs 23 always go into the free spaces that form in the corners of the opening 11 to the lock housing 14 with its recesses 15, 16 and 17.
  • the closing element 13 and the actuator 19 are also made of metal, so that they are electrically conductively connected to the door leaf 10 via the rotary bolt 30 and the holding cage 20.
  • the lock plate 12 and the lock housing 14 can be made of metal or plastic. It is entirely possible to design and manufacture the lock plate 12 with the lock housing 14 as a one-piece injection molded part.
