Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a magnetic latch assembly and more particularly to a locking device for selectively locking and unlocking doors, lids or other similar closures.
  • United States Patent No. 2,673,111 discloses a magnetic door catch adapted for use on cabinet doors of the blind panel type.
  • the magnetic door catch includes a magnetically permeable metal or armature plate secured to the inner surface of a door and a magnet unit pivotably mounted to a door jamb opposing the door.
  • the magnet unit has an elongated frame in which a magnet is mounted. When the door is in its open position, the magnet unit hangs on a straight slant with the bottom end of the housing disposed inwardly from the front face of the door jamb.
  • the magnetic attraction between the armature plate and the magnet causes the entire magnet unit to pivot to a substantially vertical position. In that position, the armature plate and the magnet are attracted to one another to hold the door in its closed position.
  • the door is pushed inwardly until the armature plate comes into contact with the door jamb. This causes the magnet to be dislodged from the armature plate.
  • a spring is disposed in the magnet unit and is adapted to be deflected or compressed rearwardly when the armature plate is positioned in contact with the door jamb. When the pressure on the door is abruptly released, the spring urges the door toward its open position.
  • United States Patent No. 5,035,451 discloses a magnetic latch which includes a latch arm pivotably mounted to a door and having a hook at its one end and a spring leg at its other end. A flat magnet and a retainer in the form of a hook are attached to a cabinet. In the event of a disturbance such as an earthquake, the latch arm is pivotably moved in an upward direction and attracted to the magnet. If the door is moved further in an outward direction, the latch arm is brought into latching engagement with the retainer to prevent the slippage of the contents of the cabinet.
  • a magnetic latch assembly which includes a first latch means and a second latch means operatively associated with the first latch means to selectively latch and unlatch two relatively movable first and second objects such as a combination of a door and a door frame or a combination of a container and a closure lid.
  • the first latch means is arranged in the first object, and the second latch means is in the form of a retainer arranged in the second object.
  • the first latch means includes a latch member movably mounted to the first object, and a first magnet arranged in the latch member.
  • the retainer has a housing within which a cavity is defined to receive at least part of the latch member when the first and second objects are moved toward one another.
  • the cavity has a first passage and a second passage extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first passage.
  • a second magnet is mounted in the housing and has a magnetic pole of opposite polarity from the first magnetic pole of the first magnet. The latch member is moved into the first passage of the cavity when the first and second objects are relatively moved toward each other.
  • the first magnet and the second magnet are then operatively associated to cause the latch member to be moved from the first passage to the second passage.
  • the attractive force between the first and second magnets urges the latch member into latching engagement with one end of the housing which serves as a hook or retainer.
  • the invention can advantageously provide for a latch assembly that is simple in structure and can smoothly and effectively latch two relatively movable objects.
  • the latch member includes an elongated latch arm with a hook formed at its distal end.
  • the first magnet is mounted in the hook.
  • the housing has a through aperture communicated with the cavity so that the latch member is accessible through the aperture.
  • the latch member is manually pressed down with sufficient force to disengage the first magnet from the second magnet.
  • the latch member is moved toward the first passage of the cavity to allow removal of the latch member from the cavity or housing.
  • a discrete release member may be inserted through the aperture. The release member may be engaged with the latch member when the first and second objects are held in their latched position. The release member may be manually pushed down with sufficient force to disengage the first magnet from the second magnet.
  • the housing has a bore communicated with the cavity.
  • a release member is inserted into the bore.
  • the second magnet is mounted in the release member.
  • one end of the release member extends out of the housing and the other end of the release member is substantially flush with the cavity.
  • the release member is pulled in a direction away from the cavity, the second magnet is disengaged from the first magnet.
  • the latch member is moved from the second passage to the first passage of the cavity. This allows removal of the latch member from the housing.
  • a door 10 is hingedly connected at its one lateral edge (not shown) to a door jamb or frame 12 to swing about a vertical axis.
  • the door 10 is provided with a first latch means as generally designed by reference numeral 14.
  • the first latch means 14 includes an elongated vertical recess 16 defined in the upper left corner of the inside surface of the door 10 and a movable latch member 18 contained within the recess 16 when the door 10 is in an open or unlatched position as shown in Fig. 3.
  • the latch member 18 has an elongated latch arm 20, a pair of lateral pivot pins 22 (only one in shown in Figs, 3 to 6) extending outwardly from opposite sides of the proximal end of the latch arm 20, and a generally rectangular hook 24 formed on the distal end of the latch arm 20.
  • a rectangular magnet 26 is embedded in the hook 24 and has, for example, a north magnetic pole. The outer end of the magnet 26 is substantially flush with or slightly outwardly extends from the outer end of the hook 24. As shown, the hook 24 has taper outer edges.

  • the annular recess 48 has a diameter greater than that of the through aperture 44 and also, slightly greater than that of the annular flange 46c.
  • the depth of the annular recess 48 is substantially equal to the thickness of the annular flange 46c of the release member 46.
  • the annular flange 46c and the semispherical head 46b collectively prevent removal of the release member 46 from the top wall 36b of the housing 36.
  • the latch member 18 is pulled out of the recess 16 manually by the index or other fingers of a user. Then, the latch member 18 is upwardly pivoted about the pivot pins 22 as shown in Fig. 4. At this time, the pivot pins 22 are located in the lower end of the vertical guide grooves 30.
  • the latch member 18 is rotated in a clockwise direction in Fig. 4 until the latch arm 18 is horizontally aligned with the horizontal guide groove 28.
  • the latch arm 18 is inserted into the horizontal guide groove 28 until the proximal end of the latch arm 20 makes contact with the rear or bottom end of the horizontal guide groove 28. With the latch member 18 in its horizontal orientation, the door 10 is moved toward the door frame 12, as shown in Fig. 5.

  • the magnet 42 has a magnetic pole of opposite polarity from the magnetic pole of the magnet 26.
  • the resulting attractive force between the magnets 26, 42 causes upward movement of the latch member 18 within the cavity 40.
  • the pivot pins 22 are moved along the respective vertical guide grooves 30.
  • the hook 24 is hingedly engaged with the upper or retaining end of the front wall 36a of the housing 36 so as to securely latch or lock the door 10.
  • the annular flange 46c of the release member 46 is retracted or received within the recess 48 of the top wall 36b of the housing 36, and the semispherical head 44b is upwardly moved and disengaged from the top wall 36a of the housing 36.
  • the released member 46 is manually pressed down with sufficient force to overcome the attractive force between the magnets 26, 42.
  • the magnet 26 is separated from the magnet 42 to allow downward movement of the latch member 18 within the cavity 40 while the pivot pins 22 of the latch member 18 are moved downwardly along the respective vertical guide grooves 30.
  • the latch arm 20 With the latch arm 20 in contact with the bottom of the cavity 40, the door 10 is pivoted toward its open position. This causes the latch member 18 to be moved out of the cavity 40.
  • the latch member 18 is downwardly pivoted about the pivot pins 22. The latch member 18 is thereafter received within the elongated recess 16.
  • the magnetic latch assembly preferably as an auxiliary security lock, is mounted on near the upper end of the door.

  • the lid shell 108 To latch the attaché case from the position shown in Figs. 15 and 17, the lid shell 108 is moved toward the base shell 110. Further movement of the lid shell 108 causes the latch member 118 to be inserted into the cavity 138 through the front opening 136 of the retainer 132. Once the distal end of the latch member 118 makes contact with the rear wall of the cavity 138, the attractive force between the magnets 130, 142 causes upward movement of the latch member 118 within the cavity 138. With the attaché case in its latched position shown in Figs. 16 and 18, the magnets 130, 142 are attracted to each other, and the hook 126 of the latch member 118 is engaged with the front wall or retaining end of the retainer. In this position, the top surface of the hook 126 is substantially flush with the top surface of the retainer housing 134.
  • the top surface of the hook 126 is manually pushed down with sufficient force to disengage the magnet 130 from the magnet 142. This causes downward movement of the latch member 118 within the cavity 138 until the bottom of the latch arm 124 is brought into contact with the bottom surface of the cavity 138. This allows the latch member 118 to be moved away from the cavity 138. As the lid shell 108 is pivoted away from the base shell 110, the latch member 118 is slid out of the cavity 138 through the front opening 136.
