Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a blocking mechanism for drawers fitted on-board vehicles, such as commercial vehicles. However it could be used very advantageously on vehicles of any kind, and also marine vessels could be fitted out in such a way. It is further predisposed for use in fixed installations having drawers and shelves for the broadest range of uses.
  • the invention refers to blocking sliding drawers in a closed or open position, which drawers are subjected to continuous external soliciting forces.
  • drawers installed on-board vehicles are subjected to forces of acceleration and braking and more in general, to generically oriented forces dependent on the vehicle's motion and position. According to how the drawers are arranged, such forces can cause the accidental opening of the various sliding compartments, or in any case the uncontrolled movement thereof, with the risk that the objects or material contained therein might fall out.
  • Document DE 4307911 discloses a drawer cabinet wherein the drawers, mounted on telescopic rails, are lockable in a retracted and in an extended configuration by means of rotating terminal elements which can be turned by means of a common lever.
  • Document DE 19746825 teaches the locking of a drawer by means of an attached notch lever forced into closing position by spring force; on each drawer side a catch lever is provided, both of which are joined by an operating bar.
  • the technical task underlying this invention is to provide a blocking mechanism for drawers which obviates the above-mentioned drawbacks.
  • the main aim of this invention is to design a blocking mechanism for drawers which enables effective blocking of the drawer in a closed configuration, or further also in an open configuration thereof.
  • a further aim of the invention is to design a blocking mechanism for drawers which requires a small number of components, thus limiting the materials to be held in stock and speeding the assembly process.
  • a further aim of the invention is to design a blocking mechanism for drawers which is provided with a simple and intuitive activation device.
  • 1 denotes a blocking mechanism for drawers in accordance with the invention.
  • the section view in figure 1 is a partial view of a drawer, which slides within a fixed structure, not illustrated as of known type: in particular a side portion 2 and a front portion 3 of the drawer are visible.
  • the mechanism 1 comprises a rocker arm 4 rotatably hinged to the side portion 2 by means of a pivot 5.
  • the rocker arm 4 has an elongate form and extends substantially along the side portion 2 of the drawer.
  • the rocker arm 4 is further specially shaped to perform the desired blocking function.
  • the rocker arm 4 has at least first means for blocking 6, engageable with a respective first portion 7 of the fixed structure.
  • the first means for blocking 6 are preferably obtained in a seating 8 afforded in the rocker arm 4.
  • the seating 8 is couplable with a respective projecting pin 9, rigidly constrained to the fixed structure and defining the abovementioned first portion 7 of the fixed structure.
  • the pin 9 is complementarily shaped with respect to the respective seating 8 with which it engages.
  • the function of the first means for blocking 6 is to achieve a blocked configuration of the drawer in a closed position in which the drawer is retractedly located within the fixed structure.
  • the rocker arm 4 also preferably has second means for blocking 10, couplable with a respective second portion 11 of the fixed structure.
  • These second means for blocking 10 are preferably constituted by a protuberance 12 obtained on the rocker arm.
  • the second portion 11 of the fixed structure is constituted by a tang 13, preferably obtained on a plate 14 rigidly constrained to the fixed structure. The tang 13 extends towards the inside of the drawer and is so conformed that it intercepts the protuberance 12 of the rocker arm 4 according to a principle of functioning that will be illustrated below.
  • the function of the second means for blocking 10 is to achieve a blocked configuration of the drawer in an open position thereof, in which the drawer projects at least partially from the fixed structure.
  • rocker arm 4 can, by means of oscillations of modest entity, move between a blocked position, in which it blocks the drawer in an open or closed position, and an unblocked position, in which it is rotated relative to the blocked position, to allow the drawer to be moved.
  • the seating 8 is obtained on the rocker arm 4 near a first end 15 of the rocker arm 4.
  • This first end 15 is the end nearer the front portion 3 of the drawer.
  • the protuberance 12 is instead obtained near the second end 16 of the rocker arm 4, opposite the first end 15.
  • the mechanism 1 further comprises a handle 17, rotatably fixed to the front portion 3 of the drawer, for implementing commands to unblock the drawer starting from the closed or open configuration.
  • the handle 17 is elongate and can rotate around an axis 18 thereof.
  • the axis 18 is substantially parallel to the front portion 3 of the drawer and, in cases where the drawer is predisposed horizontally, the axis 18 is horizontal, as shown in the figures.
  • the handle 17 moves between a non-operational position, in which it achieves a blocked configuration of the drawer, and an operational position in which it is rotated about the axis 18 thereof in order to unblock the drawer, starting from the blocked configuration.
  • the handle 17 comprises means for activating 19, preferably rigidly fixed to the handle 17 and suitable for transmitting a blocking action to the rocker arm 4 following a rotation of the handle 17.
  • the means for activating 19 are constituted by a cam 20, which transmits an oscillatory movement to the rocker arm 4.
  • the rocker arm 4 near its first end 15, the rocker arm 4 has a cavity 21 for housing the cam 20, and a contact surface 22 engageable with the cam 20.
  • the position of the centre of gravity of the rocker arm 4 can be adjusted by appropriately locating the position of the pivot 5, or alternatively, by distributing the mass of the rocker arm 4 prevalently in the direction of the first end 15.
  • the handle 17 can then be released; due to the action of gravitational pull on the rocker arm 4 the handle 17 tends to return to the original non-rotated configuration, while the rocker arm 4, having returned into the horizontal position, raises the second end 16 thereof to a same level as the initial level, thus causing the protuberance 12 to be intercepted, should the drawer tend to close again, by its respective tang 13. In this way the blocked open configuration, illustrated in figure 3 , has been obtained.
  • the drawer can be returned to the blocked closed configuration simply by rotating the handle 17 clockwise and pushing the drawer back into the fixed structure and then releasing the handle 17, reinstating the coupling between the seating 8 and the pin 9.
  • the rocker arm 4 is provided with at least a first bevel 23, obtained in proximity of the seating 8 and facing in the direction of the pivot 5.
  • the first bevel 23 allows the blocked closed configuration to be reached even when the handle 17 is not operated by a user.
  • this first bevel 23 is intercepted by the pin 9 and, for this reason, the first end 15 of the rocker arm 4 rises progressively, which substantially compensates for the rotation which would have had to be generated by turning the handle 17, until the seating 8 and its respective pin 9 latch together automatically.
  • the rocker arm 4 is provided with a second bevel 24, obtained near the protuberance 12 in the direction of the pivot 5.
  • the handle 17 can be released.
  • the second bevel 24 intercepts the tang 13 and, because of the inclination of the bevel, an automatic clockwise rotation of the rocker arm is generated which tends to allow the protuberance 12 to pass under the tang 13, and go beyond it.
  • the rocker arm 4 tends to return to the initial horizontal position, generating the blocked open configuration.
  • the mechanism 1 comprises two rocker arms 4 of the type described above. These rocker arms 4 are rotatably engaged, in the same way as in the embodiment described above, to two opposite side portions 2 of the drawer. In this way they achieve the abovementioned blocked open and blocked closed configurations engaging, each of them, with a respective pin 9 or a respective tang 13.
  • This invention provides important advantages.
  • the mechanism described reduces the number of components required to make it to a minimum, thus simplifying storage and assembly operations, and consequently reducing production times and costs.
  • a further advantage is linked to the practicality and intuitiveness the mechanism, which delegates the moving and the operations of blocking and unblocking exclusively to a handle, without any need for direct intervention from the outside on other blocking devices.
  • a further advantage is the possibility of commanding a blocked condition with the drawer either open or closed, thus increasing the range of use for this mechanism.
  • the special geometry of the rocker arm makes it possible to block the drawer automatically in the open or closed positions, with a simple pushing action after the unblocking operation, without any need to check whether the drawer has in its motion reached the correct position for being blocked correctly.
