Abstract
Description
Claims (5)
- Spring-action closure for bags and briefcases made of leather or similar items, with a combination lock comprising:
and whereby on said casing (1) and on the movable bolt unit (5) two relevant projections (1C; 5C) are provided, said projections being designed to engage with the corresponding circular profiles (13F; 23F) and with the corresponding peripheral notches (13G; 23G) of said annular members of the two knob mechanisms (13, 23) so as to prevent the movable bolt unit (5) from sliding and so as to allow it to slide only when both operating knobs (13A; 23A) are positioned in accordance with the correct combination, which can be modified only when the movable bolt unit (5) is in the open position;
characterized in that: said annular member (13E;23E) is provided with an inner ring of indentations (13H; 23H) intended to engage with a first elastic pin (13Q, 13N; 23Q, 23N) so as to define a plurality of positions of the operating knob (13A; 23A) with respect to the annular member (13E; 23E) and therefore with respect to the notch (13G; 23G);each of said first and second knob mechanisms (13, 23) include a second elastic pin (13P; 23P) for the click positioning of the knob (13A; 23A);and said first and said second elastic pins (13P-13Q; 23P-23Q) of each knob mechanism are accommodated in a corresponding single inclined through-seat (13M; 23M) such that they engage with the ring of indentations (13H; 23H) on the corresponding annular member (13E; 23E) and with an additional ring of indentations (1H; 5H) formed in the casing (1) and on the bolt unit (5) respectively. - Spring action closure according to claim 1, characterized in that a single compression spring (13N; 23N) is arranged in each of said inclined through-seats of said first and second knob mechanisms, between said first and second elastic pins.
- Spring action closure according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that said additional ring of indentations formed in the casing and on the bolt unit are spaced apart, in the axial direction of the corresponding operating knob (13A; 23A), from the ring of indentations (13H; 23H) on the corresponding annuar member (13E; 23E).
- Spring action closure according to one or more of the preceding claims, characterized in that the axis of said inclined through-seat (13M; 23M) extends along a diametrical plané of the corresponding annular member (13E; 23E), but is inclined with respect to the axis of the corresponding operating knob.
- Spring action closure according to one or more of the preceding claims, characterized in that said elastic pins are ball-shaped.
