Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electronic lock, and more particularly to an electronic lock having an electronic circuit which interacts with the antenna of a cylinder lock to set the lock in an open or closed position by driving a retention pin of an actuator.
  • Pin tumblers are most commonly employed in cylinder locks, but may also be found in tubular pin tumbler locks.
  • a plastic card that has a magnetic strip on the back can be used. By sliding the card into the lock, an electronic reader circuit decodes the information on the strip and checks for a match with a code stored inside it. If it's the right key, the circuit activates a powerful electromagnet that pulls a bolt sideways, allowing the user to open the door.
  • US6442985 (B1 ) discloses a lock with a lock solenoid which can be locked or unlocked by an electronic key or mechanical key.
  • the lock solenoid is disposed in the upper portion of the housing and acts as a key cylinder lock actuator so as to engage or disengage the stopper with/from the lock groove provided in the sleeve, thereby locking or unlocking a rotation of the sleeve correspondingly.
  • US2003084691 discloses a lock section which is mechanically operated by a key provided with identification information to perform a locking or unlocking operation.
  • a receiver acquires the identification information from the key.
  • a checker determines whether the identification information acquired by the receiver matches with pre-stored registration information of the key.
  • a limiter restricts the unlocking operation of the key when the checker determines that the identification information does not match with the registration information.
  • US2002189307 discloses door locks having numerous electronic or electro mechanical keys fit a single or a group of locks.
  • Lock cylinders in the document may or may not contain tumblers or other mechanical combination to be met by a mechanical key.
  • the electrically operated lock blocking means is released allowing the key to turn.
  • a cylinder lock disclosed in the document uses an electrically operated blocking means, generally a small solenoid or a motor that is released or turned allowing the turning of the key.
  • Primary object of the present invention is to provide an electronic lock having an ability to electronically transfer information from a key to the cylinder to set the lock in an open or closed position.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic lock having an antenna at first cylinder half such that said lock can be used with a rosette which permits to use the locks in steel doors.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic lock with a key having no battery on itself such that ensuring long-life time.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic lock which is suitable to every type of door even in steel doors.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic lock which is resistive against "lock-picking" attempts.
  • the present invention proposes an electronic lock according to independent claim 1.
  • the preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a cylinder body (1) having a first cylinder half (14a) and second cylinder half (14b), a handle (7) to be situated on the second cylinder half with a handle rod (6), an actuator (2) for actuating a retention pin (3) for blocking movement of a plug (8) of the cylinder body, an antenna (4) for receiving a signal coming from an electronic circuit (9) of a key (11), and an electronic card (12).
  • said electronic lock (15) comprises the cylinder body (1) one end of which the key (11) can be inserted for actuating a pawl (10), and the other end of the cylinder body is equipped with the handle (7) for the user to lock or open the door.
  • the actuator (2) is placed at first cylinder half (14a) with the retention pin (3), when the user inserts the key (11) inside the cylinder body (1), the antenna (4) sense the electronic circuit (9) of the key (11) which is placed at the tip portion of the key, and activates the actuator (2) of the retention pin (3) up or down according to the longitudinal axis of the electronic lock (X).
  • Said first cylinder half (14a) has a locking house (20) as a groove, engages with the retention pin (3) when the actuator is activated.
  • Said electronic circuit (9) of the key (11) interacts with the antenna (4) which is in a communication with the electronic card (12) via connection cables (5). Verification and identification of the data received from the antenna (4) are processed in the electronic card (12), if the electronic card (12) approves that the defined key (11) is inserted into the cylinder body (1), then transmits a signal to the actuator (2).
  • the user may define more than one key (11) for the electronic lock (15) with the electronic card (12).
  • the electronic card (12) compares data read from the antenna (4) with data stored in memory itself, such that if the data received from the antenna (4) is found to be acceptable, the electronic card (12) provides the actuating signal to a solenoid-activated actuator (2) to move the retention pin (3).
  • Fig 4a shows a perspective view of the electronic lock (15) where a tip portion (16) of the key (11) inserted in the keyway fully.
  • Said retention pin (3) preferably can be one piece and prevents the movement of the cylinder boy (1).
  • actuator releases the pin (3) and let the rotation of the plug (1).
  • the locking pin (3) is held in an upward position as shown in FIG. 3 .
  • actuator is activated pulling of the retention pin (3).
  • the antenna (4) can be selectively connected to a detector constructed to respond to the radio frequency signal or to a detector constructed to respond to the light-frequency signal and cooperating with the electronic card (12).
  • the actuator (2) houses a solenoid-actuated retention pin (4) which is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the electronic lock.
  • the retention pin (3) mates with a grooved section which prevents rotation of the plug (8) in certain states of the actuator. If the electronic lock (15) recognizes a valid key is inserted, actuator (3) is energized, and retention pin (3) is pulled inside the grooved housing of the actuator (3). The plug (8) is thereby unlocked and free to rotate. Upon removal of the key from the keyway, retention pin (3) returns to its fully depressed position, blocks the plug (8).
  • a spring (22) can be used and in turn may push the retention pin (3) into a locked position.
  • a suitable design for key 30, shown in FIG. 5 is quite similar to that of a conventional mechanical key.
  • Key shaft of the key (11) and especially the tip portion (16) of the key (11) houses the electronic circuit (9) which is suitable to interface with the antenna (4).
  • Said hosing of the electronic circuit has a cross section in a form of rectangular. Thanks to its nature, said key has no battery for the electronic circuit (9) such that it provides long term usage and durability. Because of the electronic circuit (9) of the key is positioned at the tip of the key shaft, no powerful electronic materials are needed.
  • a battery for the key, especially for the electronic circuit is not needed and long-lasting usage is obtained.
  • the antenna Upon insertion of the valid key, the antenna sense the electronic circuit end and sends a signal to the electronic card. The data is processed by the electronic card to energize the solenoid-activated actuator (2), pulling retention pin back and allowing plug (8) to rotate freely. Actuator is thus energized only in the event that retention pin has been moved downwardly into its open position, thereby energizing the actuator.
  • retention pin (3) when retention pin (3) is in its locking position, it is necessary in order to retract the pin to provide current through coil to generate a field of opposite polarity to that of solenoid means, of sufficient strength.
  • current of opposite polarity When current of opposite polarity is applied, retention pin (3) will move downwardly. Whilst the key is absent, the retention pin is retained in the locking position.
  • FIG. 6 demonstrates a cross section view of the actuator of the lock according to the present invention.
  • Said actuator (2) mainly comprises a solenoid (24) having a coil windings (23) and a spring (22) biasing against the retention pin (3).
  • the electronic card (12) energizes the coil windings (23), the coil is also energized to withdraw the retention pin so that the plug can move.
