System comprises: an equalizer (24) pivoting on a stop (10) with a knob on the equalizer that together with a base (20) on the plate set the size of an introduced coin; and a screw (25) fixed to the casing and accessible from the outside so that the length of its shaft pushing against the equalizer can be adjusted, thus setting a coin diameter size.

Description

Les serrures qui fonctionnent avec des pièces posent souvent le problème déjà très connu mais pas entièrement résolu pour le propriétaire de l'installation où sont utilisées ces serrures comme les supermarchés, les gymnases, les clubs etc. de l'adaptation relativement fréquente de la serrure à une pièce différente de celle prévue au début.The locks that work with coins often pose the problem already well known but not fully resolved for the owner of the facility where these locks are used, such as supermarkets, gymnasiums, clubs etc. the relatively frequent adaptation of the lock to a different room from the one planned at the beginning.

Le diamètre de la pièce conditionne son introduction dans la serrure et son logement à l'intérieur.The diameter of the room conditions its introduction in the lock and his dwelling inside.

Il existe déjà des solutions comme celles du Brevet européen 0 917 117, mais elles ne sont pas satisfaisantes car les solutions trouvées consistent à modifier ou à manipuler les mécanismes internes de la serrure soit en démontant l'ensemble de la serrure, le couvercle ou la carcasse soit en utilisant des mécanismes supplémentaires ou des ustensiles spéciaux pour une manipulation de l'extérieur.There are already solutions like the European Patent 0 917 117, but they are not satisfactory because the solutions found consist in modifying or manipulating the internal mechanisms of the lock either by dismantling the entire lock, the cover or the casing either using additional mechanisms or special utensils for a manipulation of the outside.

Le sollicitant part d'une serrure composée d'une carcasse avec une rainure par laquelle la pièce est introduite, à l'intérieur de laquelle est posée une plaque pouvant se déplacer par l'action d'une clef extérieure, un crochet étant monté sur cette plaque avec une embase qui peut glisser sur une ouverture de cette plaque ainsi qu'un arrêt avec une embase et un bouton sur l'arrêt pour loger la pièce ; il la modifie en y introduisant un système qui est composé de :

  • a) un balancier pivotant sur l'essieu sur l'arrêt, disposant sur ce balancier un bouton qui délimite avec l'embase de la plaque le logement de la pièce introduite (le bouton de l'arrêt est éliminé);
  • b) une vis fixée sur la carcasse et accessible en commande de l'extérieur et dont la tige active par appui le balancier en situant l'essieu à un coté de la vis et le bouton.
    • The sollicitant part of a lock consists of a carcass with a groove through which the piece is introduced, inside which is placed a plate that can move by the action of an external key, a hook being mounted on this plate with a base that can slide on an opening of this plate and a stop with a base and a button on the stop to house the room; he modifies it by introducing a system which is composed of:
  • a) a rocker pivoting on the axle on the stop, having on this balance a button which delimits with the base of the plate the housing of the introduced part (the button of the stop is eliminated);
  • b) a screw fixed on the carcass and accessible from the outside and whose rod activates by pressing the balance by locating the axle on one side of the screw and the button.

    • Il est obtenu avec ce système une serrure adaptable à des pièces de différents diamètres et dont la mise au point est extrêmement simple et sans besoin de démontage ni d'outillages particuliers. It is obtained with this system a lock adaptable to pieces of different diameters and whose development is extremely simple and without need dismantling or special tools.

    De plus, pour adapter la dimension de la rainure au diamètre de la pièce, les pièces suivantes sont prévues :

  • a) un piton qui sort de la rainure
  • b) une platine pouvant glisser et être fixée de sorte à libérer la partie (d2) de la rainure à la volonté de l'usager;
  • c) une protubérance sur cette platine de sorte que la distance (d1) entre le piton et la protubérance soit la même distance (d2) que la partie libre de la rainure : d1 = d2;
    • ce qui est très économique, facile à utiliser et efficace.In addition, to adapt the dimension of the groove to the diameter of the part, the following parts are provided:
  • a) a peg coming out of the groove
  • b) a plate that can slide and be fixed so as to release the portion (d 2 ) of the groove at the will of the user;
  • c) a protrusion on this plate so that the distance (d 1 ) between the peak and the protuberance is the same distance (d 2 ) as the free part of the groove: d 1 = d 2 ;
    • which is very economical, easy to use and efficient.

    • Un exemple de réalisation pratique, non limitatif, de la présente invention est décrit ci-après.An exemplary practical embodiment, not limiting, of the present The invention is described below.

    Les figures 1 et 2 montrent une serrure connue où l'on peut apprécier une carcasse (1) avec une rainure supérieure (2) par laquelle est introduite la pièce (18). Sur la moitié supérieure du boítier (1) est logée une plaque (3) qui repose sur le fond grâce aux embases correspondantes.Figures 1 and 2 show a known lock where one can appreciate a carcass (1) with an upper groove (2) through which is introduced the piece (18). On the upper half of the housing (1) is housed a plate (3) which rests on the bottom thanks to the corresponding bases.

    La plaque (3) subit des déplacements latéraux, la pièce déterminant donc la fermeture et l'ouverture de la serrure munie à cet effet d'un ressort (5), posé sous cette dernière garantissant sa récupération ou le retour à la position initiale une fois libre.The plate (3) undergoes lateral displacements, the piece determining therefore closing and opening the lock provided for this purpose with a spring (5), placed under the latter guaranteeing its recovery or return to the initial position a times free.

    Un crochet (6) est monté sur la plaque (3) décrite, requis par le ressort (7) dont l'extrémité dispose d'une embase inférieure (8) pouvant glisser pour les déplacements de la plaque (3) le long de l'ouverture (9), configurée en forme de pointe de flèche. De même, la pièce d'arrêt (10) est montée sur la plaque (3) munie de son ressort (11) et sur sa face intérieure, une embase ou bouton (12) qui sort sur la face opposée de la plaque (3) par l'ouverture (13).A hook (6) is mounted on the plate (3) described, required by the spring (7) whose end has a lower base (8) which can slide for the displacements of the plate (3) along the opening (9), configured in the form of Arrowhead. Similarly, the stop piece (10) is mounted on the plate (3) provided with of its spring (11) and on its inner face, a base or button (12) which leaves on the opposite side of the plate (3) through the opening (13).

    Avant d'introduire la pièce qui est indiquée avec (18), la plaque de fermeture (3) obligée par son ressort (5) reste à l'intérieur du boítier (1). Bien que la clef d'ouverture / fermeture soit activée pour provoquer le déplacement de la plaque (3), la fermeture ne peut pas être effectuée car l'extrémité (8) du crochet (6) bute contre la zone (19) de l'ouverture (9) en forme de pointe de flèche et empêche la réalisation de la fermeture, récupérant sa position initiale de plaque (3) dès que la clef est relâchée.Before introducing the part indicated with (18), the plate of closure (3) forced by its spring (5) remains inside the housing (1). Although the opening / closing key is activated to cause the plate to move (3), the closure can not be performed because the end (8) of the hook (6) abuts against the area (19) of the arrow-shaped opening (9) and prevents the performing the closure, recovering its initial plate position (3) as soon as the key is released.

    Cependant, quand la pièce (18) est introduite, cette dernière glisse à la verticale vers le bas et se loge entre le bouton (12) de la pièce d'arrêt (10) et l'embase interne (20) de la plaque (3), sortant légèrement par l'ouverture en forme de pointe de flèche (9). Dans cette position, la clef de fermeture est activée, la plaque (3) se déplace et le crochet (6) qui empêchait auparavant la fermeture, glisse sur le bord de la pièce (18) et arrive au fond de la pointe de flèche (9) réalisant ainsi la fermeture.However, when the piece (18) is introduced, the latter slides to the downward vertical and is housed between the button (12) of the stop piece (10) and the internal base (20) of the plate (3), emerging slightly through the opening in the form of arrowhead (9). In this position, the closing key is activated, the plate (3) moves and the hook (6) which previously prevented the closure, slides on the edge of the piece (18) and reaches the bottom of the arrowhead (9) thereby realizing the closing.

    On peut observer clairement que la clef est à la distance qui sépare le bouton (12) et l'embase interne (20) qui détermine le diamètre (d) de la pièce qui est acceptable pour le fonctionnement de la serrure.It can be clearly seen that the key is at the distance that separates the button (12) and the inner base (20) which determines the diameter (d) of the part which is acceptable for the operation of the lock.

    Le problème surgit quand la même serrure doit fonctionner à différents moments avec des pièces de différents diamètres pour être activée.The problem arises when the same lock has to work at different times with pieces of different diameters to be activated.

    L'invention prévoit une platine (21) près de la rainure (2) pouvant glisser et être fixée à la volonté de l'usager de sorte à obturer / libérer la partie de la rainure (2) désirée et qui sera imposée par le diamètre (d2) de la pièce (18) qui doit rester libre pour que la pièce passe.The invention provides a plate (21) near the groove (2) which can slide and be fixed to the will of the user so as to close / release the portion of the groove (2) desired and which will be imposed by the diameter (d 2 ) of the piece (18) which must remain free for the piece to pass.

    Un point fixe est prévu dans la serrure de préférence au centre de la rainure (2), par exemple un piton (22) et une autre protubérance (23) sur la platine (21) de sorte que lorsque l'usager met la pièce choisie entre le piton (22) et la protubérance (23) (la platine se déplace automatiquement (21)) il reste automatiquement une partie de rainure (2), une ouverture (d2) de rainure (2) libre qui coïncide avec le diamètre de la pièce choisie, c'est à dire : d1 = d2. Ou ce qui revient au même : la distance (a1) du piston (22) à l'extrémité de la rainure (2) est égale à la distance (a2) de la protubérance (23) à l'extrémité de la platine (21): a1 = a2.A fixed point is provided in the lock preferably in the center of the groove (2), for example a stud (22) and another protrusion (23) on the plate (21) so that when the user puts the chosen piece between the pin (22) and the protuberance (23) (the plate moves automatically (21)) there remains automatically a groove portion (2), an opening (d 2 ) free groove (2) which coincides with the diameter of the chosen room, ie: d 1 = d 2 . Or what amounts to the same: the distance (a 1 ) of the piston (22) at the end of the groove (2) is equal to the distance (a 2 ) of the protuberance (23) at the end of the plate (21): a 1 = a 2 .

    La pièce (18) est à l'intérieur de la serrure mais nous savons pour la description faite (figures 1 et 2) que le passage de la pièce (18) va être limité par le bouton (12) et l'embase interne (20) de la plaque (3).The piece (18) is inside the lock but we know for the description made (FIGS. 1 and 2) that the passage of the part (18) will be limited by the button (12) and the inner base (20) of the plate (3).

    L'invention prévoit que le bouton (121) fait partie d'un balancier (24) (de préférence à une extrémité) qui pivote sur l'arrêt (10) sur l'essieu (e1).The invention provides that the button (12 1 ) is part of a rocker (24) (preferably at one end) which pivots on the stop (10) on the axle (e 1 ).

    Il est très important que l'accès à ce balancier (24) soit effectué par l'usager (propriétaire de l'établissement) de manière simple et sans aucun type de démontage. Pour cela, l'invention prévoit une vis (25) dont la tête (251) est accessible de l'extérieur, vissée directement ou indirectement sur la carcasse (1) et dont la tige (252) repose sur le balancier (24) (action par appui) ou similaire de sorte qu'en vissant plus ou moins la vis (25) le balancier (24) et son bouton (121) tournent plus ou moins, faisant varier, à la volonté de l'usager, la distance entre le bouton (121) et l'embase interne (20) de la plaque (3) et s'adaptant au diamètre de la pièce à utiliser dorénavant avec cette serrure.It is very important that access to this balance (24) is done by the user (owner of the establishment) in a simple way and without any type of disassembly. For this, the invention provides a screw (25) whose head (25 1 ) is accessible from the outside, screwed directly or indirectly to the carcass (1) and whose rod (25 2 ) rests on the balance (24). ) (action by support) or the like so that by screwing more or less the screw (25) the rocker (24) and its button (12 1 ) rotate more or less, varying, at the will of the user, the distance between the button (12 1 ) and the inner base (20) of the plate (3) and adapting to the diameter of the part to be used from now on with this lock.
