Definitions
- the invention relates to a burglary-preventing device for an access panel, such as a door or window, wherein the burglary-preventing device comprises a shielding body, preferably made from metal, to be fixedly attached to the access panel, which shielding body has a front side, which is facing away from the access panel in a fitted position, and a rear side which is situated opposite the front side, wherein the rear side has a lock-receiving recess to accommodate an end portion of a cylinder lock, a passage with an axis which extends from the front side of the shielding body to the lock-receiving recess, wherein the passage makes it possible to operate the cylinder lock from the front side of the shielding body using a key.
- a shielding body preferably made from metal
- Cylinder locks can in principle be opened by drilling the cylinder or by otherwise destroying the lock. If the locking pins, which lock the cylinder against rotation when no fitting key is inserted into the lock, are destroyed, then the lock can be rotated and opened. It is also known for locks to be pulled from doors or windows.
- Anti-drilling devices which comprise a rotatable anti-drilling disc which is provided with a slotted hole to pass a key through. Such a disc serves to block access to the lock or at least to delay it, if an attempt is made to drill the lock.
- Devices are known, for example from EP 0 566 483 , wherein the anti-drilling disc is provided with small inserts which are made of a harder material than the disc itself. These small inserts have to withstand drilling or damage the drill.
- the cylinder is shielded, but also other components of the lock, such as for example the part of the lock housing wherein the locking pins are situated.
- EP 0 943 756 A2 shows a door fittings set comprising a burglary-preventing device in Fig.1 .
- the lock cylinder protrudes with respect to the door surface.
- the cylinder is inserted into a cylinder cover which comprises a covering cap which is fitted over a shielding body and a covering disc with a slotted hole for a key.
- This known device protrudes with respect to the front face of the door.
- the shielding body is a plate body with an oval periphery which is placed in front of the lock housing part which houses the locking pins, which should protect the lock housing part underneath the cylinder and should prevent the lock from being pulled out of the door.
- the shielding body in this known burglary-preventing device is situated beyond the front face of the door, this device is susceptible to destruction by means of, for example, a grinder or a saw, following which the lock could still be pulled out of the door.

Description
- The invention relates to a burglary-preventing device for an access panel, such as a door or window, wherein the burglary-preventing device comprises a shielding body, preferably made from metal, to be fixedly attached to the access panel, which shielding body has a front side, which is facing away from the access panel in a fitted position, and a rear side which is situated opposite the front side, wherein the rear side has a lock-receiving recess to accommodate an end portion of a cylinder lock, a passage with an axis which extends from the front side of the shielding body to the lock-receiving recess, wherein the passage makes it possible to operate the cylinder lock from the front side of the shielding body using a key.
- Cylinder locks can in principle be opened by drilling the cylinder or by otherwise destroying the lock. If the locking pins, which lock the cylinder against rotation when no fitting key is inserted into the lock, are destroyed, then the lock can be rotated and opened. It is also known for locks to be pulled from doors or windows.
- Anti-drilling devices are known which comprise a rotatable anti-drilling disc which is provided with a slotted hole to pass a key through. Such a disc serves to block access to the lock or at least to delay it, if an attempt is made to drill the lock. Devices are known, for example from
EP 0 566 483 , wherein the anti-drilling disc is provided with small inserts which are made of a harder material than the disc itself. These small inserts have to withstand drilling or damage the drill. - However, it is preferred if not only the cylinder is shielded, but also other components of the lock, such as for example the part of the lock housing wherein the locking pins are situated.
-
EP 0 943 756 A2 shows a door fittings set comprising a burglary-preventing device inFig.1 . The lock cylinder protrudes with respect to the door surface. The cylinder is inserted into a cylinder cover which comprises a covering cap which is fitted over a shielding body and a covering disc with a slotted hole for a key. This known device protrudes with respect to the front face of the door. In this case, the shielding body is a plate body with an oval periphery which is placed in front of the lock housing part which houses the locking pins, which should protect the lock housing part underneath the cylinder and should prevent the lock from being pulled out of the door. However, because the shielding body in this known burglary-preventing device is situated beyond the front face of the door, this device is susceptible to destruction by means of, for example, a grinder or a saw, following which the lock could still be pulled out of the door. - The object of the invention is to provide a burglary-preventing device which is better able to resist destruction.
- This object is achieved according to the invention by a burglary-preventing device according to the preamble of
claim 1, wherein the shielding body furthermore has bores which extend at right angles to the passage, wherein inserts of a harder material than the material of the shielding body are inserted into the bores and fixed. - According to the invention, the shielding body is substantially reinforced by providing bores wherein hard inserts are arranged, thus greatly increasing the resistance of the shielding body to grinding and sawing. The axes of the bores extend in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the passage for the key. Due to the fact that the inserts are located in the shielding body, they provide efficient resistance against destruction of the shielding body by grinding or sawing from the top, bottom, sides or front of the shielding body. Thus, it is virtually impossible to remove the shielding body from the panel by means of a grinder or saw. Therefore, the lock cannot be pulled out of the panel either.
- By providing the bores in a certain configuration, the associated inserts can shield the lock from various sides in an efficient manner.
- In an advantageous embodiment, the inserts arranged in the bores together surround the passage in the shielding body. This surrounding configuration of inserts, which extend in the shielding body, provides strong protection against grinding or sawing on all sides. In addition, it is possible to prevent drilling of the lock at the housing portion where the pins are situated (usually on the bottom side of the cylinder) and protection is provided against drilling obliquely into the lock from the sides or above.
- In a possible embodiment, the passage is flanked on diametrically opposite sides by first inserts which are inserted into corresponding mutually parallel first bores, and wherein the passage is furthermore flanked on diametrically opposite sides by second inserts, which are inserted into corresponding mutually parallel second bores and which are at right angles to the first inserts. In this way, a rectangular configuration of inserts is achieved which provides a shielded area around the passage for the key. By adding more first bores and more second bores, respectively, the shielded area may be increased.
- In a possible further embodiment, the second inserts are shorter than the first inserts. This offers the possibility of placing the inserts at a short distance from the passage.
- In a further embodiment, the mutually perpendicular bores intersect. In this embodiment, bores are thus provided in the body, the respective axes of which are in a plane. As a result thereof, it is possible to lock a first insert in a first bore by pushing a second insert into a second bore, which second bore intersects the first bore. The second insert then blocks the point of intersection between the two bores. If the second insert is then fixed, both inserts are secured.
- In a possible embodiment, two first bores with first inserts are situated on either side of the passage. In this embodiment, four first bores are thus provided, two on each side of the passage, in order thus to increase the shielded surface area in one direction.
- In a possible embodiment, two second bores with second inserts are situated on either side of the passage. In this embodiment, four second bores are thus provided, two on each side of the passage, in order thus to increase the shielded surface area in another direction.
- In an advantageous embodiment, the inserts are formed as pins. The pins may have different lengths.
- The inserts may be made of hard metal or of, for example, ceramic material. Other suitable hard materials could also be used. It is possible to make all inserts from the same material, but it is also conceivable that a number of the inserts are made of one material and another number of a different material. It is also conceivable for an insert to comprise several materials.
- In a possible embodiment, with at least some of the bores, the insert is secured in the respective bore by closing the bore with a weld. In this case, a plug weld is conceivable.
- In a preferred embodiment, the shielding body substantially has a block shape, wherein at least a first portion of the block is configured to be placed against a front face of the access panel. This shape is simple to produce as such, for example using a metal-removing operation.
- Preferably, said block has a second portion which is configured to be accommodated in a matching recess in the access panel. In this case, the second portion of the block has a smaller peripheral length than the first portion of the block. In this embodiment, a portion of the block may thus be recessed into the access panel (e.g. door panel) and the first block portion bears against an area of the front face of the panel surrounding the recess.
- The bores provided with the inserts are preferably situated in the first area and are thus in front of the front face of the panel.
- The invention also relates to an access panel, such as a door or window, to which a burglary-preventing device, as described above, is fitted.
- In a preferred embodiment of said access panel, the shielding body is made of metal and welded to the access panel. By welding the shielding body to the access panel, an extremely strong, non-detachable connection between the shielding body and the access panel is achieved.
- Other possible methods for attaching the shielding body to the access panel may be an adhesive connection and/or a screw connection.
- In a possible embodiment of the access panel, such as a door or a window, a handle or knob with a matching escutcheon is fitted to the access panel, with the escutcheon covering the burglary-preventing device. By covering the burglary-preventing device by means of an escutcheon, an attractive and uniform appearance is achieved.
- The invention also relates to a door or window fittings set comprising a burglary-preventing device as described above, at least one handle or knob for a window or door, and at least one associated escutcheon which is configured to cover the burglary-preventing device.
- The escutcheon, in a fitted position, has a rear side which faces the door or window panel, the rear side preferably being provided with a recess which is suitable for accommodating a front portion of the shielding body. As a result thereof, the escutcheon and the shielding body are fitted in a well-defined manner with respect to each other and a displacement with respect to each other is prevented.
- The invention furthermore relates to a method for manufacturing a burglary-preventing device for an access panel, such as a door or window, wherein:
- a shielding body is formed or mechanically produced, preferably from metal, so that it has a front side which, in a fitted position, in use, faces away from the access panel, and a rear side which is situated opposite the front side,
- a lock-receiving recess is formed or mechanically produced in the rear side so as to accommodate an end portion of a cylinder lock,
- a passage with an axis in the shielding body is formed or mechanically produced, preferably drilled, from the front side of the shielding body to the lock-receiving recess, with the passage allowing the operation of the cylinder lock to be fitted in the lock-receiving recess by means of a key from the front side of the shielding body,
- bores are formed or produced mechanically at right angles to the passage in the shielding body, preferably drilled,
- inserts of a harder material than the material of the shielding body are inserted and fixed in the bores.
- Preferably, the respective bores are closed off by welding after the respective inserts have been inserted into the respective bores.
- The invention will be explained in more detail in the following description with reference to the drawing, wherein:

When the lock is in the locking position, thelatch 11 is in the extended position and, in the case of aclosed door 1, engages with an associated recess in the door frame. - At the location of the cylinder lock, a burglary-preventing
device 20 is fitted on the outside of thedoor profile 2. - In
Figs. 4A - 4C , the burglary-preventingdevice 20 is shown in more detail in various views. - The burglary-preventing
device 20 comprises a shieldingbody 21. In the illustrated embodiment, the shieldingbody 21 is formed as a metal block having a rectangular contour, as can be seen inFig. 4A . Theblock 21 consists of a frontrectangular portion 22 and a rearrectangular portion 23, as can best be seen inFigs. 4B and 4C . The peripheral dimensions of thefront portion 22 are larger than those of therear portion 23. - In itself, the rectangular contour is not essential to the invention and could thus also be different, for example round, oval or polygonal, but the rectangular shape is simple to produce from a practical point of view.
- The
front portion 22 has afront side 24 which faces away from thedoor 1. Therear portion 23 has arear side 25 which is opposite to thefront side 22. A lock-receivingrecess 26 is provided in therear side 25 for accommodating an end portion of a cylinder lock. In the illustrated embodiment, the lock-receivingrecess 26 comprises a portion 26A for accommodating the front end of the cylinder and aportion 26B for accommodating the front end of the housing portion where the locking pins are situated. - A
passage 27 extends from thefront side 24 through theblock 21 to the lock-receivingrecess 26. Thepassage 27 is formed as a bore with an axis which extends at right angles to thefront side 24 of theblock 21 and ends in the lock-receivingrecess 26. Thepassage 27 allows operation of the cylinder lock by means of a key from thefront side 24 of the shieldingbody 21. - The
front portion 22 of theblock 21 has anunderside 28. In the illustrated embodiment, fourblind bores 30 are provided in theunderside 28 which extend at right angles to thepassage 27, but do not intersect the latter. On either side of thepassage 27, twoparallel bores 30 are provided which, in the fitted position, extend upwards, as can best be seen inFig. 4A . - Furthermore, the
front portion 22 of theblock 21 has a pair ofopposite sides 29.

pins 32 of a harder material than the material of the shielding body are fitted in thebores 30. - In a similar way, inserts formed as
pins 33 of a harder material than the material of the shielding body are fitted in the second bores 31. - The harder material of the
pins - The
pins 33 are significantly shorter than thepins 32. In a preferred embodiment, theshorter pins 33 have a length which is only slightly greater than the diameter of thepassage 27. As a result thereof, it is possible first to fit a relativelylong pin 32 on one side in the bore which is closest to thepassage 27 in order then to insert the relativelyshort pins 33 from theside 29 which is situated furthest from the inserted relativelylong pin 32 into thebores 31 and push them through until they bear against the relativelylong pin 32. Thereafter, a second relativelylong pin 32 can be fitted on the other side of thepassage 27 into thebore 30 which is situated closest to thepassage 27, as a result of which the relatively short pins are locked between the two relatively long pins 32. Subsequently, the outer relatively long pins 32 may also be fitted. - The relatively long pins 32 are fixed in their
respective bores 30. Preferably, this is achieved by means of a weld, in particular a plug weld, in the open end of thebores 30. - It should be noted here, just for the sake of illustration, that in a possible practical embodiment, the relatively long pins 32 may have a length l1 of 65 mm and a diameter D1 of 8 mm and the relatively
short pins 33 may have a length l2 of 17 mm and a diameter D2 of 8 mm. Thefront portion 22 of theblock 21 may have a length L of 100 mm and a width B of 60 mm. The length and width of thesecond part 23 of the block are each approximately 20 mm less than the length and the width of thefront portion 22 of the block. The thickness T of the total block may be approx. 25 mm, with the thickness T1 of thesecond part 23 being approx. 10 mm. - The
door profile 2 has afront plate 40, as can be seen inFig. 2 . In thisfront plate 40, ahole 41 with a contour which corresponds to the contour of therear portion 23 of theblock 21 is provided. In the illustrated example, thehole 41 is thus rectangular. The dimensions of thehole 41 are slightly larger than the dimensions of therear portion 23 of theblock 21, as a result of which therear block portion 23 may be fitted in thehole 41 with some play. - The
rear block portion 23 is welded to the rear side of thefront plate 40 on all sides. The welds are denoted byreference numeral 41. Welding theblock portion 23 to the rear side prevents thewelds 41 from being destroyed, for example by means of a grinder or the like. As a result thereof, theblock 21 cannot be removed from the door, which would make it possible to pull the lock out of the door. - The
front block portion 22 is welded to the front side of thefront plate 40 on all sides. The welds on thesides 29 can be seen inFig. 2 and are denoted byreference numeral 42. - The
front block portion 22 is situated in front of thefront plate 40 of the door profile and is therefore accessible to all manner of tools, such as a drill, a grinder or a saw. Because hard pins 32, 33 which extend in different directions are fitted in theblock portion 22 situated in front of theplate 40, thefront block portion 22 is efficiently protected from being sawn or ground through. - As can be seen in
Fig. 1 andFig. 2 , anescutcheon 6 is fitted over theblock 21. Theescutcheon 6 has afront escutcheon plate 61 and aperipheral edge 62. On the rear side of thefront escutcheon plate 61, a recessedportion 63 is provided to accommodate the front side of thefront portion 22 of theblock 21. The contour of therecess 63 is identical to that of the block, but slightly larger in size, so that there is some play for fitting.
