The first and third pins (11, 13) co-operate, respectively, with a first profile (15) and a second profile (7) of the key (3) and are designed to co-operate with second pins (13) to set themselves in a position such as to enable free rotation of the cylinder (10) within the body (8).
Description
- The present invention relates to cylinder locks of the type comprising: a lock body or stator; a cylinder or rotor, mounted so that it can rotate in the body and having a passage for introduction of a key; an aligned set of first pins mounted so that they can slide radially in the cylinder in positions distributed along the axis of the cylinder and an aligned set of second pins mounted so that they can slide in the stator and designed to co-operate with the first pins in the neutral position of the cylinder, said first pins being designed to be engaged by a first pre-set profile of a key in order to set the second pins in a position such as to enable free rotation of the cylinder within the body; and at least one third pin, which is mounted so that it can slide radially in the cylinder and is designed to be engaged by a second pre-set profile of a key to set itself in a position such as to enable free rotation of the cylinder within the body.
- A technique of forcing cylinder-lock devices envisages the insertion of a universal key (the so-called "bump key") and a stress exerted by this through rhythmed blows on its body, designed to transmit impulses to the first and second pins of the cylinder lock to bring them into the operating position such as to enable free rotation of the cylinder within the body. Various cylinder-lock devices referred to as "anti-bumping" devices have been developed, which present solutions such as to reduce the effectiveness of this forcing technique.
- The solutions of the known art counteract forcing carried out using the bumping technique by preventing the action of banging on the key from releasing the interface between the surfaces of coupling of the cylinder and of the lock body from all the elements of interposition provided. Additional blocking elements are in fact present, which operate in the neutral position of the cylinder and upon which in said position no load is exerted by the impulses transmitted by the bump key.
- Many of these solutions envisage additional elements that lead to a complication of the lock device and to an increase in the costs and management of the production process. Furthermore, these solutions, notwithstanding the validity of their principles of operation, are unable alone to guarantee a complete security on account of the machining tolerances of the elements making up the lock. The combination of a number of anti-bumping solutions that act when the cylinder is in the aforesaid neutral position is, however, problematical on account of the limited space available and the standard dimensions of the lock body.
- The purpose of the present invention is to provide a lock of the type referred to above that will guarantee a high degree of security, above all in regard to the forcing technique of a bumping type, and that will enable the aforesaid target to be achieved with a lock having a relatively simple, low-cost structure, as well as ensuring reliable operation.
- In order to achieve the aforesaid purposes, the lock according to the invention is of the type according to the preamble of
Claim 1 and is characterized in that the third pin has its axis that lies on a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder and on which there also lie a first pin and the co-operating second pin, so that said at least one third pin will co-operate with said second pin when it comes into a position corresponding to an angular position of the cylinder shifted with respect to the aforesaid neutral position of the cylinder. - The solution according to the present invention can also be readily associated to an anti-bumping solution of a conventional type in so far as, since the anti-bumping security acts in a position rotated with respect to the neutral position of the cylinder, the elements designed to constitute the further block of the cylinder are shifted into positions that do not interfere with the positions of engagement of the elements of the conventional solutions.

- In Figure 1, the
reference number 1 designates as a whole a cylinder lock mounted in the door of a dwelling (not illustrated) and associated to akey 3 having agrip 4 and alaminar body 5 with two opposedfaces 6 and twolongitudinal edges 7. - With reference to Figures 2 and 3, the
lock 1 comprises abody 8, or stator, traversed by acylindrical passage 9, within which a rotor orcylinder 10 is mounted so that it can rotate. - Provided in the
cylinder 10 is a set offirst pins 11, mounted so that they can slide radially within respectiveradial holes 10a made in thecylinder 10 and giving out into apassage 12, made axially through thecylinder 10, for introduction of thekey 3. - The
first pins 11 co-operate with second pins orcounterpins 13 mounted so that they can slide radially in thebody 8 and recalled bysprings 14 against thefirst pins 11. - The
first pins 11 have end tips designed to co-operate with a first shaped profile, which in the example illustrated is defined by a plurality ofdepressions 15 made on one or both of thefaces 6 of thekey 3. In this way, the key authorized to open the lock is able, in thepassage 12, to cause axial displacement of theblocking pins 11 in the operating positions illustrated in Figures 5 and 6, in which they do not project beyond the external surface of thecylinder 10, so that they do not prevent a rotation of thecylinder 10 with respect to thebody 8. - A plurality of
third pins 16, which have parallel axes and are distributed along the axis of the cylinder, are arranged so that they can slide radially within respectiveradial holes 10b within thecylinder 10 in a direction rotated with respect to the direction in which thefirst pins 11 slide. In the non-binding embodiment of Figures 3 to 12, thethird pins 16 are arranged perpendicular to thefirst pins 11. Eachthird pin 16 has its own axis that lies on a plane perpendicular to the axis of thecylinder 10, on which also one of thesecond pins 13 and one of thefirst pins 11 lie. In this way at the moment in which, during rotation of the cylinder, theholes third pins 16 and thesecond pins 13 are in a condition of co-operation. - The
third pins 16 havefirst projections 16b designed to co-operate withcavities 7a of theedge 7 of thekey 3. - The plurality of
third pins 16 comprises third pins of a first set 16' and third pins of asecond set 16". The third pins 16' of the first set havesecond projections 16a in the radial direction of thecylinder 10 that face the surface of thecylindrical passage 9. Theprojections 16a are designed to be engaged in agroove 9a made on the surface of thecylindrical passage 9. Thethird pins 16" of the second set are without theprojection 16a and are such as to possess an encumbrance in the radial direction of the cylinder smaller than the encumbrance of the third pins 16' of the first set. - Starting from the condition in which the
cylinder 10 is in a neutral position (Figures 3 and 4), thekey 3 is inserted in the passage 12 (Figures 5 and 6), in this way displacing the first, second andthird pins second pins hole 10a of thecylinder 10 and of thehole 8a of thelock body 8, respectively. Said position assumed by the first andsecond pins cylinder 10. Thethird pin 16" of the second set, co-operating with theedge 7 of thekey 3, is brought flush with the end of thehole 10b, which faces the surface of thecylindrical passage 9. The third pin 16' of the first set sets itself in such a way that the tip of theprojection 16a sets itself flush with the end of thehole 10b that faces the surface of thecylindrical passage 9. - When the key is turned (Figures 7 and 8) the first, second and
third pins cylinder 10 of thecylinder lock 1. - In the case where an attempt is made to force the lock using a bump key, the person forcing the lock inserts a key 3' that is not correct within the
passage 12. With banging on the bump key that has been inserted, the first andsecond pins respective guide holes second pins cylinder 10 can be rotated. If we imagine the first andsecond pins projection 16a of the third pin 16' projects beyond the end of theguide hole 10b, thecylinder 10 is prevented from rotating on account of the engagement of theprojection 16a with thegroove 9a made on the surface of thecylindrical passage 9. - However, usually bump keys, owing to the experience acquired by picklocks, have edges 7' with profiles having deep depressions, which by co-operating with the third pins of the first set cause the
projections 16a to reside within therespective guide hole 10b. More specifically, picklocks use bump keys that have a continuous groove along the edge 7' that extends throughout the longitudinal length of the edge 7' and is characterized by a depth such as to cause theprojections 16a to reside within therespective guide hole 10b. In this case then, the person forcing the lock using the bump key, from the neutral position of the cylinder manages to turn the latter and execute part of the travel of opening of the cylinder lock 1 (Figures 9 to 12). - In the cylinder locks according to the invention, when the angular position of the cylinder illustrated in Figures 9 and 10 is reached, since the
third pins 16 lie on planes perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder on which also correspondingsecond pins 13 lie, thethird pins 16 are then in a condition of co-operation with thesesecond pins 13. - Represented in Figures 9 to 12 is the situation where a third pin 16' of the first set, co-operating with the edge 7' of the incorrect key, is brought into a radial position in which the
projection 16a is flush with the end of thehole 10b. - Consequently, in the aforesaid condition of co-operation of the third pin 16' of the first set with the corresponding second pin 13 (Figure 12), the third pin 16' and the corresponding
second pin 13 are flush with the facing ends, respectively, of thehole 8a of thelock body 8 and of thehole 10b of thecylinder 10, this position enabling rotation of thecylinder 10. Thethird pin 16" of the second set instead (Figure 11), since it does not have theprojection 16a and is thus shorter, in the aforesaid condition of co-operation betweenthird pins 16 andsecond pins 13, assumes a position such that thesecond pin 13 projects within thehole 10b, in this way preventing rotation of the cylinder. - In the situation where the edge 7' of the bump key has a profile, which, when it co-operates with the third pin 16' of the first set, brings the
projection 16a into a position inside thehole 10b, the same third pin 16' of the first set, in the aforesaid condition of co-operation with a correspondingsecond pin 13, assumes a position such as to cause thesecond pin 13 to project within thehole 10b, in this way preventing rotation of the cylinder. - Obviously, the
third pins 16, which, in the embodiment illustrated in the figures lie on a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of thecylinder 10, can, however, be arranged on planes differently inclined with respect to said axis, so that in any case they will co-operate with the correspondingsecond pins 13 for angular positions of thecylinder 10 rotated with respect to the aforesaid neutral position of the cylinder itself. - A further embodiment envisages that the
third pins 16 are all third pins 16' of the type of the first set, i.e., that are all provided with theprojection 16a, but envisages that said pins 16' are characterized by overall dimensions, in the radial direction of thecylinder 10, that are different. - Another embodiment envisages that the
third pins 16 are allthird pins 16" of the type of the second set, i.e., that are all without theprojection 16a, but envisages that saidpins 16" are characterized by overall dimensions, in the radial direction of thecylinder 10, that are different. - In a further embodiment, the
cylinder lock 1 comprises pairs ofthird pins 16, each pair having third pins arranged on one and the same plane perpendicular to the axis of thecylinder 10 and positioned diametrally opposite to one another with respect to thelaminar body 5 of thekey 3. Theprojection 16b of eachthird pin 16 of the pair co-operates with thecavity 7a of thecorresponding edge 7 of thekey 3. - The lock device according to the present invention, can moreover be associated to anti-bumping devices of a conventional type.
- From the foregoing description, it is evident that the lock according to the invention presents a high degree of security and in particular enables an extremely large number of different opening combinations, corresponding to an equally high number of keys. At the same time, the lock operates efficiently and reliably and has a relatively simple and low-cost structure.
- Of course, without prejudice to the principle of the invention, the details of construction and the embodiments may vary widely with respect to what has been described and illustrated herein purely by way of example, without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention.
