Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wing lock according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a wing lock of the above type is due to the GB-A-1,500,194.
  • a sash arrester there is a separation between the sash in the closed position Locking arm and locking element possible, so that such separation from the outside is not made in an unauthorized manner can be.
  • the locking arm is in the closed position of the sash through the one at the level of its passage slot Locking pin while overcoming the spring force in the contact position held on the wing.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of a wing lock of the genus mentioned above with regard to its Locking engagement independent of spring force and thus to make it correspondingly safer to lock and at the same time to find an alternative to the wire spring used in the prior art.
  • This The object is achieved by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the locking arm on the bearing base also a vertical one Axis be pivoted so that the locking arm also for locking the wing in various limited Rotary opening positions can be used.
  • the turn-tilt window shown in Fig. 1 has a fixed frame 1 and thus rotatable and tiltable sash frame 2 connected via means not shown, the on the upper side with a conventional scissor stay 10 with the Fixed frame 1 is connected and thereby in a maximum tilt-open position can be held.
  • the actuation of the Turn and tilt wing and the connection housed in it and locking means is via the swivel-adjustable handle 3.
  • this handle 3 is the invention procured wing lock 4 arranged in essentially from the bearing base attached to the fixed frame 1 5, the pivotally connected therewith about an axis of rotation lying parallel to the fixed frame plane swing-out locking arm 6 and thus in selectable locking engagement to be attached, attached to the sash 2, cone-shaped locking element 7.
  • the bearing bracket supporting the swing-out locking arm 6 5 consists of a simple bearing plate 5 which over connecting means only indicated by dash-dotted lines, e.g. Locking screws, lying flat on the frame 1 can be attached.
  • the locking arm 6 is kept relatively wide and provided with a centrally arranged toothed rack 9, the locking teeth 9 'of which, as shown in FIG. 4, extend at least over half the width of the locking arm 6.
  • the simple locking pin 7 attached to the sash frame 2 and forming the locking element projects laterally into the locking arm 6 or into its toothed rack 9, so that there is a correspondingly wide locking engagement.
  • a sliding track 11 is provided for the locking pin 7, which is covered by the cover bar 12 which extends equidistantly from the toothed bar 9.
  • the cover strip 12 projects with its free end 12 'up to close to the articulation end 6' of the locking arm 6, a free passage slot 13 being provided at both ends for the locking pin 7 between the latter.
  • the locking arm 6 has a flat contact surface 6 '''to be attached to the fixed frame 1, its toothed strip 9, the sliding track 11 located above it for the locking pin 7 and the cover strip 12 provided with the passage slot 13 are slightly curved.
  • the locking arm 6 is also provided on the upper side with transverse adhesive ribs 6 V which increase its grip.
  • the rack 9 is the one with the passage slot 13 provided cover strip 12 covered exposed on both sides, the locking pin 7 with its free pin end 7 'either from the left or from the right into the sliding track 11 or between two adjacent ratchet teeth 9 'of Locking arm 6 protrudes.
  • the locking pin 7 and the position of the cover strip 12 or its passage slot 13 are coordinated so that the Tilt opening the wing and swinging out at the same time the locking arm 6 of the locking pin 7 by stop the free end 12 'of the cover strip 12 automatically into the Moving track 11 located above the rack 9.
  • the only way to actually determine the wing is then a short press on the arm 6 or his Toothed rack 9 against the locking pin 7 necessary, then into the desired, between two adjacent ratchet teeth 9 ' located tooth gap 9 '' while overcoming a corresponding one Retraction resistance retracts.
  • the wing lock shown in Figures 6 and 7 largely corresponds to that described above. Its matching parts are through the corresponding ones Marked reference number.
  • the Locking arm 6 on the bearing base 5 also about an axis lying parallel to the fixed frame plane and perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the locking arm 6 15 pivotally articulated to with this wing lock the wings of windows or doors also in various limited To be able to determine the opening positions.
  • This wing lock also differs of the above-described to the extent that here on free end of its locking pin 7 a stop collar 7 '' is provided in the locking positions of the locking pin 7 each behind the corresponding ratchet teeth 9 ' Rack 9 engages.
  • This stop collar 7 '' can also be different as cylindrical, for example crowned or also be conical. This ensures that in the limited wing opening positions of the locking arm 6 not pushed laterally over the locking pin 7 what can otherwise be the case of an unauthorized intrusion or attempted entry would still be possible under certain circumstances.
  • This the burglar alarm also serves as an additional burglar alarm the inside of the cover strip 12 facing the toothed strip 9 arranged locking bar extending equidistantly from the toothed bar 9 18 by the stop collar 7 '' of the locking pin 7 in its respective located in the sliding path 11 Moving or lifting positions is engaged. Thereby an additional axial lock is also used in these cases ensured between locking pin 7 and locking arm 6.
  • the new wing lock is not on the one shown Limited use for turn and tilt windows or doors. Rather, it can also be used with simple rotating windows or bottom hung windows, such as basement skylight windows for wing locking in limited different opening positions can be used advantageously.
  • the locking arm basically also on the casement and thus in locking engagement Locking element to be brought attached to the fixed frame be what about wings opening outwards would be beneficial.
  • the Fig.1 arrangement of the wing lock shown above the window sash operating handle has the advantage that the lock is difficult or impossible to reach for children is, therefore, an unauthorized, dangerous opening of the Window sash is excluded.
