Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lock with a deadbolt that can be actuated by an electric motor by way of a reduction gearset or a cylinder.
  • Locks of the cited type are already known for example from US patents no. 4,833,465 and 5,083,448 , from German publications no. 34.07.073 and 36 20 799 , and from European patent no. 281,137 and EP-A-0 482 786 .
  • In known locks there are drawbacks due to the fact that the movement of the deadbolt has critical points, which cause malfunctions and even jammings if the electrical actuation elements, for any reason, jam in the position in which the deadbolt has not yet completed its stroke. These jammings of the electrical operation do not allow to open the lock with the key but require interventions on the part of specialized personnel.
  • the document FR 2 788 805 A discloses a lock according to the preamble of claim 1, i.e. a lock provided with a deadbolt that can be actuated manually by a lock cylinder and electrically by an electric motor by way of a gear which can cooperate with a first set of teeth provided on a plate on the deadbolt for driving the deadbolt.
  • This lock is further provided with actuation means controlled by the lock cylinder for effecting engagement and/or disengagement between the first set of teeth and the gear.
  • the first set of teeth is provided on a spring-biased plate which is slidably mounted on the deadbolt tail and which can be moved relative to the deadbolt in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the deadbolt between an engaged position, where the gear and the first set of teeth are engaged, and a disengaged position in which they are are not engaged.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a lock with a deadbolt that can be actuated by an electric motor or a cylinder with an alternative mechanism for affecting the engagement and/or disengagement of the gear and the deabolt between a driving position in which the gear drives the deadbolt and a non-driving position in which the gear does not drive the deadbolt.
  • the lock comprises a casing, generally designated by the reference numeral 1, which is composed of a rectangular back 2 from the upper, lower and front sides of which three walls rise, said walls being designated by the reference numerals 3, 4 and 5 respectively.
  • the base 6 has a protrusion 9 ( Figure 4), to which a reversible electric motor 10 is coupled by means of a flange, said motor resting on the back.
  • a worm gear 11 is keyed to the output shaft of the electric motor 10 and drives a helical gear 12, which can rotate about a pivot 13 that rises from the base 6.
  • a pinion 14 is coaxially rigidly coupled to the helical gear 12 and, by means of a reduction gearset 15, transmits motion to a gear 16, hereinafter termed driving gear owing to the fact that it has driving elements (specified hereafter) which, under the actuation of the electric motor 10, drive the deadbolt 8 in and out of the casing 1.
  • the gearset 15 also can rotate about a pivot 17 that rises from the casing 1.
  • the driving gear 16 as shown more clearly in Figure 7, has two pivots, a lower one 18 and an upper one 19, which are coaxial to each other; the first pivot 18 rotatably engages in a bush 20 of the base 6, while the second pivot 19 protrudes from the upper face of the gear 16 and has two diametrically opposite cams 21 and 22 that are spaced from the gear 16 by a groove 23.
  • the base 6 has a recess 32 that runs around the upper half of the bush 20 and forms, under said bush, a flattened raised portion 33 that is delimited by a step 34 that is diametrical with respect to the bush 20.
  • the recess 32 also runs around the raised portion 33 and is connected, under said raised portion, to a seat 35, which is delimited by two parallel walls 36 and 37; the bottom of said seat is raised so as to form a step 38 that is parallel to the step 34 (see Figure 8).
  • a slider 39 (shown in a perspective view in Figure 6) is arranged in the seat 35, is guided between the walls 36 and 37, and is intended to cooperate with a lever 40, which is pivoted to a pivot 41 that rises from the recess 32 and has the same thickness as the raised portion 33.
  • the lever 40 (see Figures 5 and 6) comprises a semicircular portion 42, which surrounds the bush 20 and has two bevels 43 and 44 that are aligned so as to abut against the step 34 of the raised portion 33.
  • the lever 40 by way of a spring 45 whose opposite ends are rigidly coupled to a tooth 46 of said lever and to a protrusion 47 of the base 6, is actuated against the step 34 so that in the abutment position its upper face and the face of the raised portion 33 form a single surface on which the hemispherical heads 28 and 29 of the pins 26 and 27 rest.
  • the slider 39 is constituted by a plate that is contoured and folded so as to be provided laterally with a finger 48 that lies on the bottom of the recess 32 and is therefore co-planar to the lever 40, with a rectangular lip 49 that is guided between the walls 36 and 37 and lies on the region that is raised with respect to the region on which the finger 48 rests, and with a rib 50 that connects the finger 48 to the lip 49.
  • An opening 51 is formed in the lip 49 and leaves a tooth 52 of the rib 50, which has an end that rises above the upper face of the lip 49 (see Figure 8) and is provided with a bevel 52a.
  • a spring 55 is arranged on the rod 53, abuts against the ridge 54 and actuates the slider 39 into a position in which the rib 50 abuts against the step 38.
  • a hole 56 is provided in the raised bottom of the seat 35 and proximate to the step 38, and a pin 57 is inserted therein; said pin 57 has a conical tip 58 at one end and, at the other end, an enlarged head 59, on which a spring 60 acts which rests on the back wall 2 of the casing and keeps the head 59 in abutment against an annular shoulder of the hole 56, so that the conical tip 58 of the pin 57 can act on the rim of the opening 51 in order to retain the slider 39 and, at the same time, retract into the hole 56 when the slider 19 is raised toward the lever 40.
  • the deadbolt 8 (see Figure 3) is composed of a substantially rectangular plate 61, which has, on the side of the front wall 5, a rib 62 to which multiple cylindrical pins 63, guided in slots of the wall 5, are rigidly coupled.
  • the plate 61 covers the gears 12-16 and the slider 39 at the level of the groove 23 of the pivot 19, and is guided on the base 6 between two parallel ridges 64 and 65, which are perpendicular to the front wall 5 in the direction A, and by a pin 66 that slides in a slot 67 of the cover 7.
  • the thickness of the lip 49 is smaller than the distance between the bottom of the seat 35 and the plate 61 so that the slider oscillates slightly and allows the tooth 52 to move downward under the plate 61.
  • the plate 61 there are two openings 68 and 69 that are elongated in the direction A.
  • a rack-like set of teeth which is constituted by a plurality of suitably shaped teeth 70 that are spaced by gaps 71 for actuating by successive turns the deadbolt 8 by means of the pins 26 and 27 during the rotation of the gear 16.
  • Each turn of the lock corresponds to a 180° rotation of the gear 16.
  • a similar rack-like set of teeth which comprises a series of teeth 72 spaced by gaps 73, is formed in the lower rim of the lower opening 69.
  • a square locking pin 74 suitable to block the deadbolt 8 at the end of each turn of the lock, is meant to engage in the gaps 73.
  • the square pin 74 is rigidly coupled to a detent 75 (see Figures 1 and 2) that is substantially rectangular and is guided in a seat formed in the face of the cover 7 that is directed toward the plate 61.
  • the detent 75 is guided in the direction B, which is perpendicular to A, by a pin 76, which can slide in a slot 77 of the cover 7, and by a rod 78, which passes through a bridge 78a from the cover 7 in which it is guided.
  • the pin 76 protrudes from a face of the detent 75, while the square pin 74 is rigidly coupled thereto but protrudes from the opposite face, as shown more clearly by Figure 8.
  • the bridge 78a acts not only as a guide for the rod 78 but also as an abutment for a spring 79, which acts on the detent 75 so as to push the square pin 74 between the teeth 72 in order to retain it in the provided gap that corresponds to the turn of the deadbolt.
  • the detent 75 is co-planar to the cams 21 and 22, which engage an opening 80 thereof that is substantially semicircular, is elongated in the direction B and is wider than the diametrical extension of the cams 21 and 22.
  • the opening 80 is delimited in an upward region by an inner rim 81, whose contour is slightly convex; said rim is kept centrally in contact with the pivot 19 by way of the spring 79.
  • the lock can be actuated not only electrically but also manually by way of a conventional cylinder with pins 82 (shown only in Figure 2), for which there is a receptacle 83 formed through the base 6 and the cover 7 and, of course, through the back 2 and the cover of the casing 1.
  • the cylinder acts, through its cam 84, in a known manner on the lower end 85 of the detent 75 so as to raise it, in order to disengage the square pin 74 from the blocking position between the teeth 73 during a first rotation angle and then move the deadbolt 8 during a subsequent rotation angle following to the action of the cam 84 on the teeth 86 of a third set of teeth, which are formed along the lower rim of the plate 61.
  • said lock In the opening or closure condition or at the end of each turn of the lock, said lock is in the position shown in Figures 1 to 5, in which the cams 21 and 22 are arranged horizontally, so that the detent 75 keeps the square pin 74 engaged in a gap 73 of the plate 61, so as to prevent the sliding of the deadbolt 8.
  • the cam 84 of the cylinder 82 also acts on the slider 39, which in turn, by means of the finger 48, acts on the lever 40.
  • the rotation of the lever 40 has no effect, since the heads of the pins 26 and 27 remain substantially in contact against the raised portion 33 at the step 38.
  • the deadbolt due to any malfunction of the electric motor, for example due to lack of electric power, might stop in the position in which one of the pins 26 and 27 is still engaged between the teeth 70.
  • this situation shown in Figures 9 and 10
  • the square pin 74 is disengaged from the teeth 73 through the action of the cams 21 and 22 that keep the detent 75 raised
  • driving of the deadbolt 8 is still prevented by the worm gear 11, which in the condition in which the electric motor 10 is stopped does not allow the rotation of the gearset 12-16 when one acts on the gear 16.
  • the cam 84 of said cylinder by penetrating between the teeth 86, first moves the slider 39 upward, so that the finger 48, by acting on the lever 40, causes its rotation and the spacing of the bevels 43 and 44 from the step 34 of the raised portion 33. Accordingly, the pin 26 that was located on the semicircular portion 42 of the lever 40, pushed by its own spring 30, can descend until it abuts against the bottom of the recess 32, accordingly disengaging from the teeth 70 of the slot 68 (see Figures 11 and 12) and clearing the groove 23 of the pivot 19 for the passage of the teeth 70.
  • the square pin 74 is in the position for disengagement from the teeth 72, and that the tooth 52, under the thrust of the underlying elastic pin 57, rests against the lower face of the plate 61, proximate to the teeth 72.
  • the tooth 52 compensates for the blocking function of the square pin 74, which is rendered ineffective by the cams 21 and 22, which since the gear 16 is blocked continue to keep the detent 75 raised in the raised position in which the square pin 74 is disengaged from the teeth 72.
  • the lever 40 at each turn performed by the cylinder, under the thrust applied by the spring 45, the lever 40, by way of the bevels 43 and 44, arranges itself in abutment against the step 34, so that when the electric motor 10 restarts the pins 26 and 27 and the detent 75 can resume their function of driving and blocking the deadbolt.
  • the square pin 74 by resuming the position for blocking the deadbolt in the gap 73 already partially occupied by the tooth 52, acts on the bevel 52a, pushing the tooth 52 under the plate 61 and producing the abutment of the slider 39 against the step 38 through the thrust applied by the spring 55.
  • a recess 87 is formed in the cover 7 at the slot in order to flush-mount a plate 88 made of hard metal, which is suitable to provide protection against attempts at break-ins of the square pin 74.
  • the plate 88 has a slot that faces the slot 77 of the cover 7 in order to allow the sliding of the pin 76 of the detent 75.
