  • the closure of the closure takes place in a closing direction, which is directed substantially perpendicular to the extension planes of the first connection module and the second connection module.
  • the latching elements of the first connection module and of the second connection module are disengaged, wherein the movement is simultaneously accompanied by the magnetic Attraction between the first connection module and the second connection module - due to a movement of the magnets relative to each other - is weakened, so that the first connection module can be detached from the second connection module.
  • magnets are provided to support the closing movement, the effect of which weakens when opening, both the closing process and the opening process can be done in a lighter and haptic pleasant way.
  • a first connection module and a second connection module can be brought together with magnetic support latching engagement, the release of the latch by a displacement or Verwarterrorism the first connection module or a portion of the first connection module relative to the second connection module, wherein the displacement or rotational movement of a latching element of a connection module runs onto a slope of the other connection module and is thereby pressed out of engagement with an associated latching element of the other connection module, so that the latching of the first connection module and the second connection module is canceled.
  • the locking devices of WO 2008/006 357 A2 and the WO 2009/01 00 49 A2 is common that the latching locking of the first connection module with the second connection module in the closed position by a movement of the first connection module or a part of the first connection module (in the form of an actuating element) relative to the second connection module in an opening direction, extending from the closing direction for manufacturing the lock differs, is solvable.
  • a first connection module or an actuator provided thereon By appropriately operating a first connection module or an actuator provided thereon by moving it in the opening direction, the first connection module is detached from the second connection module.
  • the release of the lock can thus be carried out by suitable operation of the first connection module or the part of the first connection module (in the form of an actuating element) substantially unhindered and free.
  • connection modules are mechanically locked together in a closed position, so that the connection modules can not be separated against a closing direction from each other.
  • connection modules can easily do so be solved from each other that the connection module is moved in an opening direction relative to the connection module, in order to solve the mechanical locking in this way.
  • the US 2009/031541 A1 discloses a buckle for securing a seat belt after being wrapped around a vehicle occupant.
  • the buckle closing is carried out in that a tongue is inserted into a plug-in buckle, whereby by inserting a locking element engages with an opening of the tongue and thus fixes the tongue to train loaded in the buckle.
  • a release of the closure device can only take place, if this is also intended.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a closure device of the type mentioned, which is secured in a simple and easy to use against accidental release.
  • a locking device for preventing movement of the first connection module or the part of the first connection module in the opening direction, when the first connection module and the second connection module are in the closed position, is provided, wherein the Verrieglungsvorraum for moving the first connection module or the part of the first connection module in the opening direction can be unlocked.
  • the idea of the present invention is to provide a locking device which prevents inadvertent movement of the first connection module or of the part of the first connection module for releasing the closure device.
  • the locking device holds the first connection module or the part of the first connection module to be actuated for releasing the closure device, so that it can not be moved in the opening direction and thus the closure device can not be opened.
  • the locking device is designed so that it can be unlocked and with unlocked locking device, a movement of the first connection module or the part of the first connection module in the opening direction is possible, so that the latching of the first connection module with the second connection module repealed and the first connection module can be solved by the second connection module.
  • the locking device is a safety measure that prevents inadvertent release of the closure device. In this way, the closure device securely holds the first connection module and the second connection module together and also ensures a secure connection during operation and under load.
  • the opening direction differs from the closing direction, it should be understood in the present case that the opening direction points in a direction other than the closing direction and is not directed parallel thereto. In particular, the opening direction is thus not directed against the closing direction.
  • the movement of the first connection module or of the part of the first connection module to be actuated to open the closure device may in particular be a displacement movement transverse to the closing direction, a rotational movement in a plane transverse to the closing direction or a pivoting movement about an axis of rotation transverse to the closing direction.
  • the opening direction (which can also be a direction of rotation) differs from the closing direction, so that the connection of the first connection module with the second connection module for closing the closure device in the closing direction, the opening, however, by a movement in one of the closing direction is different, for example, transverse to the closing direction opening direction is effected.

  • the closure device can be closed in a light and haptic pleasant manner by magnetically assisting the closing process when the first connection module is attached to the second connection module and the mechanical locking is automatically produced.
  • the Federverrastung can be locked by arranging the first connection module in the closing direction of the second connection module, in which case the at least one spring locking element engages the at least one locking piece positively.
  • the first connection module and the second connection module are attracted by the magnetic means, so that the spring lock can advantageously engage largely automatically.

  • the idea here is that the spring locking element is displaced so far in the opening direction relative to the locking piece until it passes out of the region of the locking piece and is thus no longer held by the locking piece form fit. In this shifted position, the locking is canceled.
  • the displacement of the spring locking element relative to the locking piece can be done by a tangential, linear movement or a rotational movement of the first connection module or the part to be actuated of the first connection module relative to the second connection module.
  • the at least one spring locking element is displaced relative to the at least one locking piece such that the at least one spring locking element is pressed out of engagement with the at least one locking piece by running on a ramp inclined transversely to the opening direction.
  • the spring locking element runs on a slope which acts on the spring locking element, that this is pressed transversely to the opening direction out of engagement with the at least one locking piece, so that the positive engagement of the spring locking element with the Locking piece is lifted.
