Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schloss für eine Tür oder ein Fenster umfassend ein Gehäuse, mittels einer Sperrmechanik über eine Schubstange betätigbare Verriegelungselemente sowie eine federbelastete Falle, die über einen an einer Nuss angeordneten Drücker in eine zurückgezogene Position bringbar ist, wobei die Nuss bei verriegelter Stellung der Verriegelungselemente durch die Schubstange in ihrer Neutralstellung blockiert ist.The invention relates to a lock for a door or a window comprising a housing, by means of a locking mechanism operable via a push rod locking elements and a spring loaded latch, which can be brought via a arranged on a nut pusher in a retracted position, wherein the nut in the locked position of Locking elements is blocked by the push rod in its neutral position.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Ein derartiges Schloss ist beispielsweise in der DE 10107744 A1 offenbart. Eine Blockierung der Nuss erfolgt hier durch einen auf einem Nussarm angeordneten Sperrfortsatz, welcher mit einer entsprechenden Anschlagsfläche an einer Schubstange zusammenwirkt. Diese Lösung benötigt einerseits mehr Raum im Gehäuse und die Nuss selbst muss mit einer aufwändigen Form und höherem Materialeinsatz gefertigt werden.Such a lock is for example in the DE 10107744 A1 disclosed. A blocking of the nut takes place here by a arranged on a Nuss arm barrier extension, which cooperates with a corresponding abutment surface on a push rod. On the one hand, this solution requires more space in the housing and the nut itself has to be manufactured with an elaborate shape and higher material usage.

In der DE 3739022 A1 ist beispielsweise ein eigener Blockierhebel vorgesehen, welcher in gesperrter Stellung des Schlosses in den Bewegungsweg der Falle ragt und diese in ausgeschobener Stellung blockiert. Die Nuss, welche am hinteren Ende der Falle angreift, ist somit auch blockiert und kann nicht mehr verdreht werden. Diese Lösung benötigt eine ganze Reihe spezieller Bauteile, welche nur für diesen Zweck vorgesehen werden und einerseits mehr Platzbedarf im Gehäuse erfordern, als auch durch den aufwändigen Aufbau die Herstellungskosten erhöhen. In der FR2851281 , EP2860332 , FR2858346 , GB167351 sind Schlösser offenbart, wobei bei verriegelter Stellung der Verriegelungselemente eine Schubstange die Nuss blockiert.In the DE 3739022 A1 For example, a separate locking lever is provided which protrudes in the locked position of the lock in the path of movement of the case and blocks it in the extended position. The nut, which attacks at the rear end of the trap, is therefore also blocked and can no longer be twisted. This solution requires a whole range of special components, which are provided only for this purpose and on the one hand require more space in the housing, as well as increase the production costs due to the complex structure. In the FR2851281 . EP2860332 . FR2858346 . GB167351 Locks are disclosed, wherein in the locked position of the locking elements, a push rod blocks the nut.

Kurzbeschreibung der ErfindungBrief description of the invention

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, die oben genannten Schlösser dahingehend zu verbessern, dass die notwendigen Bauteile vereinfacht werden, wodurch geringere Baugrößen ermöglicht werden, Material eingespart wird und damit die Herstellungskosten gesenkt werden. Idealerweise sollen bereits vorhandene Standardbauteile nur geringfügig modifiziert werden, um die zusätzliche Funktionalität zu gewährleisten.The object of the present invention is to improve the above-mentioned locks to the effect that the necessary components are simplified, whereby smaller sizes are made possible, material is saved and thus the production costs are reduced. Ideally, existing standard components should only be modified slightly to ensure additional functionality.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die vorliegende Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass die Nuss an ihrem Umfang eine im Wesentlichen kreissegmentförmige Aussparung aufweist, wodurch eine abgeflachte Anschlagfläche ausgebildet ist, die im verriegelten Zustand des Schlosses an einer entsprechenden Steuerfläche der Schubstange anliegt. Diese Lösung ist besonders platzsparend und benötigt sogar weniger Material als eine herkömmliche Nuss, da bei der vorgesehenen Aussparung sogar noch Material wegfällt.This object is achieved by the present invention in that the nut has at its periphery a substantially circular segment-shaped recess, whereby a flattened stop surface is formed, which rests in the locked state of the lock on a corresponding control surface of the push rod. This solution is particularly space-saving and even requires less material than a conventional nut, as even material is omitted in the proposed recess.

Dabei ist es ein weiteres Merkmal der Erfindung, dass die abgeflachte Anschlagfläche in Neutralstellung der Nuss parallel zur Längsachse der Schubstange verläuft, und dass die Steuerfläche an der Schubstange durch einen Abschnitt der vom Stulp abgewandten Stirnseite gebildet ist. Diese Anordnung ist besonders bevorzugt für ein Schloss mit möglichst geringem Dornmaß. Die Schubstange muss in keiner Weise modifiziert werden und die Herstellungskosten bleiben daher gering.It is a further feature of the invention that the flattened stop surface extends in the neutral position of the nut parallel to the longitudinal axis of the push rod, and that the control surface is formed on the push rod by a portion of the face facing away from the forend. This arrangement is particularly preferred for a lock with the smallest possible backset. The push rod does not have to be modified in any way and the production costs therefore remain low.

Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es vorgesehen, dass die Nuss in blockierter Stellung als Rückdrücksicherung für die Falle dient. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch bewerkstelligt werden, dass die Nuss direkt oder über einen Fallenrückzugshebel gelenkig mit der Falle verbunden ist, wobei eine Blockade der Nuss auch eine Blockade der Falle bzw. des dazwischen gelagerten Fallenrückzugshebels bewirkt. Die Falle dient im Sperrzustand somit als zusätzliches Verriegelungselement.According to a further feature of the present invention, it is provided that the nut in blocked position serves as a backup for the case. This can be accomplished, for example, by the nut being hinged to the trap directly or via a latch retracting lever, with blockage of the nut also causing blockage of the latch or latch retainer lever mounted therebetween. The case is thus in the blocking state as an additional locking element.

Schließlich ist es ein weiteres Merkmal der vorliegenden Erfindung, dass die abgeflachte Anschlagfläche an der Nuss an ihrem unteren Ende einen Verlängerungsabschnitt aufweist, welcher an die Nuss angeformt ist und sich im Wesentlichen in die gleiche Richtung, wie die abgeflachte Anschlagfläche erstreckt. Dadurch ist es möglich, den Verschleiß der Anschlagfläche durch eine bessere Kräfteverteilung zu minimieren.Finally, it is a further feature of the present invention that the flattened abutment surface on the nut has at its lower end an extension portion which is molded onto the nut and extends in substantially the same direction as the flattened abutment surface. This makes it possible to minimize the wear of the stop surface by a better distribution of forces.

  • Fig. 1 ein erfindungsgemäßes Schloss in entsperrter Ausgangsstellung zeigt,
  • Fig. 2 das Schloss aus Fig. 1 in entsperrter Stellung mit über die betätigte Nuss zurückgezogener Falle zeigt,
  • Fig. 3 das Schloss aus Fig. 1 in gesperrter Stellung mit blockierter Nuss zeigt und
  • Fig. 4 eine perspektivische Ansicht der Nuss zeigt.
The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which
  • Fig. 1 shows an inventive lock in unlocked starting position,
  • Fig. 2 the castle off Fig. 1 in the unlocked position with the trap retracted over the actuated nut,
  • Fig. 3 the castle off Fig. 1 in locked position with blocked nut points and
  • Fig. 4 a perspective view of the nut shows.

Beschreibung der AusführungsartenDescription of the embodiments

Das in der Fig. 1 dargestellte Schloss weist ein Gehäuse 1 auf, in welchem eine Sperrmechanik 2 angeordnet ist, die über eine Schubstange 3, Verriegelungselemente 4, im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel einen Schubriegel, betätigt. Die Sperrmechanik 2 kann dabei beispielsweise über einen Schließzylinder (nicht gezeigt) betätigt werden. In entsperrter Ausgangsstellung, wie in Fig. 1 dargestellt, befindet sich die Schubstange 3 in der oberen Position und das Verriegelungselement 4 ist in das Gehäuse 1 zurückgezogen. Ferner befindet sich im Schloss eine federbelastete Falle 5, welche über eine Nuss 6 mit einem daran angeordneten Drücker (nicht gezeigt) gegen die Kraft ihrer Feder in eine zurückgezogene Position bringbar ist.That in the Fig. 1 The lock shown has a housing 1, in which a locking mechanism 2 is arranged, which via a push rod 3, locking elements 4, in the illustrated embodiment, a sliding bolt actuated. The locking mechanism 2 can be operated for example via a lock cylinder (not shown). In unlocked home position, as in Fig. 1 is shown, the push rod 3 is in the upper position and the locking element 4 is retracted into the housing 1. Furthermore, there is a spring-loaded latch 5 in the lock, which can be brought against a nut 6 with a pusher (not shown) against the force of its spring in a retracted position.

Wie in Fig. 2 zu sehen ist, lässt sich die Nuss 6 in der entsperrten Stellung des Schlosses, wenn die Schubstange 3 in der oberen Position ist, frei Verdrehen und die Falle 5 wird zurückgezogen.As in Fig. 2 can be seen, the nut 6 in the unlocked position of the lock, when the push rod 3 is in the upper position, free rotation and the case 5 is withdrawn.

Wird das Schloss nun durch Betätigung der Sperrmechanik 2 in die versperrte Position gebracht, wie dies in Fig. 3 dargestellt ist, dann bewegt sich die Schubstange 3 nach unten, das Verriegelungselement 4 wird ausgeschoben und die Steuerfläche 8 an der Schubstange gleitet entlang der Anschlagsfläche 7 der Nuss vorbei, wodurch diese beiden Flächen 7,8 aneinander anliegen und die Nuss 6 nicht mehr verdreht werden kann.If the lock is now brought into the locked position by operation of the locking mechanism 2, as in Fig. 3 is shown, then the push rod 3 moves down, the locking element 4 is pushed out and the control surface 8 slides past the push rod along the abutment surface 7 of the nut, whereby these two surfaces 7,8 abut each other and the nut 6 are no longer rotated can.

In Fig. 4 ist eine Nuss 6 eines erfindungsgemäßen Schlosses im Detail gezeigt. Dabei ist die abgeflachte Anschlagfläche 7, welche durch eine einfache kreissegmentförmige Aussparung herstellbar ist, gut erkennbar. Diese Anschlagfläche 7 kann beispielsweise bei einer herkömmlichen Nuss sehr einfach durch eine Fräsung hergestellt werden. Insgesamt kommt es gegenüber einer Standardnuss sogar zu einer Materialeinsparung bei gleichzeitiger Erhöhung des Funktionsumfangs. Gegenüber einer Lösung mit Arm und Vorsprung kann auch die Baugröße des Schlosses, insbesondere das Dornmaß mit dieser Lösung reduziert werden.In Fig. 4 a nut 6 of a lock according to the invention is shown in detail. In this case, the flattened stop surface 7, which can be produced by a simple circular segment-shaped recess, clearly visible. This stop surface 7 can be made very easily by milling, for example, in a conventional nut. Overall, there is even a material saving compared to a standard nut while increasing the range of functions. Compared to a solution with arm and projection and the size of the castle, in particular the backset can be reduced with this solution.
