Definitions

  • the invention relates to a door lock that can be used on the right or left, with a housed in a housing, from the outside with an actuator rotatable nut, with which an latch between an in the housing inserted open position and an extended from the housing Closed position is movable, and with a blocking piece that can be changed between the right / left usage between two positions is so adjustable that it is in the closed position on a housing Stop supported in a direction opposite to the opening direction is, and that the nut between the open and the closed position only around 90 ° can be rotated back and forth, the direction of rotation for the two types of use to reach the open position or the closed position, respectively is opposite.
  • a door lock of this type is specified for example in DE 43 22 877 C1.
  • the Housing cover in the area above a square nut, with a bolt through Turning to an open and a closed position is slidable, with stops provided with an actuating element which can be inserted into the nut from the outside interact in such a way that both in the legal usage and in the left use only a 90 ° rotation is possible, the Direction of rotation from the closed to the open position or vice versa in the two Usage types is opposite.
  • the actuator has with the Interacting formations formed in the housing cover stops and must be rotated 90 ° in one receptacle for both types of use the nut and the recess of the housing cover are used. Except that the actuating element must be specially matched to the door lock must, it can also be confused with the handling of the door lock in the both types of use come.
  • Another door lock with right / left use is in DE 92 12 503 U1 specified.
  • two stop lugs are provided on a nut, which cooperate with a stop body inside the housing.
  • the stop body is used to switch between the two types of use adjusted inside the housing, which is relative to the interior of the housing is elaborately designed.
  • DE-GM 19 20 339 is another door lock that can be used on the right or left discloses, in which a locking plate is provided with stop tabs cooperate with two stop surfaces protruding diametrically from the nut can to effect a rotation limit. This mechanism is too relatively complex and for a user to use from the start not easy to understand.
  • the invention has for its object a door lock of the type described Provide a way that is simple to set up and operate.
  • the blocking piece for adjustment on the nut is slidably mounted parallel to the plane of a housing cover.
  • the interior of the lock housing can be compared to one in only one type of use usable lock remain practically unchanged, so that largely corresponding Tools can be used in manufacturing and manufacturing is inexpensive.
  • a firm stop inside the housing can open be provided in a simple manner, and essentially relates to the amendment compared to a normal door lock for only one type of use the relatively simple modification of the nut.
  • Blocking piece is guided on a web formed on the nut.
  • the handling is simple in that the blocking piece for adjustment a breakthrough in the housing wall, i.e. e.g. the long or narrow side wall, the housing base or the housing cover by means of a handle is accessible from the outside.
  • a breakthrough in the side wall has the advantage that the lock can be changed even in the assembled state.
  • the mechanism for switching between the two types of use has still a simple structure and is good and clearly usable because that the web is parallel to the plane of a housing cover and in the open or Closed position directed parallel to a respective side wall of the housing and is formed by a recess in the nut and on one of the housing cover away-facing underside has an undercut and that the Blocking piece is essentially cuboid and on its The underside facing the web has a fitting groove and an undercut under the undercut Has nose.
  • the blocking piece can, for example, as Plastic piece simply and captively put on the bridge like clips and slidable.
  • the two positions of the blocking piece for the two types of use are safely adjustable and adhered to by the fact that the web between the has a ramp in both positions of the blocking piece.
  • a simple function with simple training of the changeover mechanism is thereby ensuring that the stop, seen from the axis of rotation of the nut, outside of the blocking piece and parallel to its adjustment path is arranged, the stop a secant to a circle around the axis of rotation forms, whose radius is the distance between the axis of rotation and that of corresponds to this most distant portion of the blocking piece, and that the two positions of the blocking piece symmetrical to the central perpendicular the secant.
  • the interior of the housing requires only one type of use compared to a lock housing not to be modified at all if the Stop by a vertically from the housing cover into the interior of the housing protruding notch is formed and that that formed by the notch Window in the housing cover the opening for the adjustment of the blocking piece forms, this is only visible from the outside in the closed position and is accessible. At the same time, the accessibility becomes when the attack is formed the blocking piece created from the outside in a simple manner.
  • the two positions of the blocking piece on the outside of the housing cover are marked and / or that the open position by a first, externally visible marking on the nut and a corresponding one further marking is marked on the outside of the housing cover, so can the user can easily see how he uses the blocking piece for the position the desired type of use so that the setting is easy can be done without confusion.
  • the training and safe function is favored in that the Adjusting member is formed as a finger-like driver molded onto the nut and that the bolt has a control cam cooperating with the driver an arcuate central section and laterally adjoining this Has end sections and that the driver in the closed position in the Middle of the middle section and in the open position in the left use mode in the top view of the housing cover in relation to the middle Section counterclockwise end section and in the right-use mode is deflected in the clockwise end section and that limiting the twisting of the nut beyond the open position by striking the driver on a stop region of the end section and by engaging the latch on an abutment in the housing given is.
  • the open and closed positions are clear for both types of use and taken safely and when turning the nut recognized by the measures, that the nut has a section parallel to the housing cover with an im has a substantially square outer contour with rounded edges and that along the outer contour of the square section on one to the narrow side a parallel tumbler is supported on the side parallel to the housing itself on its side facing away from the nut by means of two side resilient finger-like extensions on the long sides of the housing on the Narrow side of the housing supports such that the extensions underneath the housing cover convex curvature with its free ends facing the case bottom are.
  • 1A shows a door lock 1, which, like that in the other figures Door locks shown can be used in a left / right mode of use. Shown is a type of left use in the open position, with a latch 3 in one Housing 2 is inserted.
  • 1B shows a corresponding representation in shown a closed position, the bolt 3 from the housing 2 by a Slit in a side wall 2.1 is pushed out.
  • the figures show one Detail of the interior of the housing, with a housing cover 2.3 (see FIGS. 2A and 2C) is removed.
  • a nut 4 is provided with a driver 4.1, which in a Control curve 3.1 with an arcuate central section and two adjacent End sections 3.10 and 3.10 'engages.
  • the control curve is for example through a shoulder of a recess or a recess in the bolt 3 educated.
  • the driver 4.1 When using the links, the driver 4.1 is in the open position in the in accordance with the figures lower end section 3.10. To slide out the bolt 3 in the closed position, the nut 4 by means of a not shown Actuator with a square turned into a corresponding receptacle 4.2 the nut 4 is inserted. To move the latch 3 into the closed position the nut 4 is rotated clockwise so that the bolt 3 from the Slit of the side wall 2.1 is pushed out. After a 90 ° turn the closed position is reached, in which, as shown in FIG. 1B, the driver 4.1 has reached the center of the arcuate section of the control cam 2.1. A further clockwise rotation is prevented by a blocking piece 5 abuts a stop 2.5 fixed to the housing.

  • the blocking piece 5 sits in the closed position shown in Fig. 1B on the Stop 2.5 on, this stop position being achieved by using the stop plane of the stop 2.5 a secant of a circle with the center M of the axis of rotation of the nut 4 is formed, the radius r of the route between the axis of rotation and the most distant point P of the Blocking piece 5 corresponds. Because of this stop position, the nut 4 is only can be turned counterclockwise until the bolt is in the open position and the driver 4.1 is deflected into the end section 3.10. In the open position a further rotation of the nut counterclockwise is not possible because of the Driver 4.1 on a stop area of the end section 3.10 to the system comes and the bolt 3 abuts an abutment inside the housing.
  • the blocking piece To change the door lock to the right-use mode, the blocking piece must 5 in the closed position on the web 4.3 over the perpendicular bisector of the Secant into a second position on the other side of ramp 4.4 be moved.
  • Such a positioning of the blocking piece 5 for the Right use mode is shown in Figures 2B, 3 and 4A.
  • Fig. 2B shows is, if the slot for the bolt 3 in the side wall 2.1 is still is on the left, the driver 4.1 in the open position in the upper end section 3.10 'deflected.
