Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electromechanical lock with an electromechanical locking mechanism for locking an associated counterpart, which occupies an open position or a closed position relative to the locking mechanism.
  • the electromechanical locking mechanism has a bolt, a driver rotatable about an axis of rotation for driving the bolt and an electric motor for driving the driver, the bolt moving between a locking position, in which the bolt locks the associated counterpart located in the closed position, and an unlocking position, in which the bolt releases the associated counterpart for the open position, is movable.
  • the bolt is prestressed in the direction of the locking position.
  • Prestressing the bolt in the direction of the locking position can in particular make it possible to provide an automatic function for automatically locking an associated counterpart.
  • the bolt can be moved against the bias into the unlocked position, for example by transferring the associated counterpart from the open position to the closed position, but to automatically snap back into the locked position when the associated counterpart is brought into the closed position.
  • the latch may, for example, consequently engage a notch formed on the associated counterpart to latch the associated counterpart and prevent movement to the open position.
  • Such an automatic function can enable convenient handling of the lock by keeping the bolt in the locked position, so to speak, so that a user only has to bring the associated counterpart into the closed position and no other actions - such as operating a key - have to be carried out in order to to achieve locking.
  • the driver can be designed to specifically drive the bolt into the unlocked position with a corresponding command and thereby release the counterpart for the open position or for a transfer into the open position.
  • Electromechanical locking mechanisms can also simplify the opening process compared to purely mechanical locks, for example by not requiring a key either.
  • locks with an automatic function for automatically locking an associated counterpart basically have the problem that the bolt must be released for movement into the unlocked position in order to be able to be released from the counterpart during the transfer to the closed position can be moved against the bias.
  • this requirement is associated with the risk that an unauthorized person may potentially be able to move the bolt into the unlocked position without actuating the electric motor or the driver if the associated counterpart is in the closed position.
  • such locks can be susceptible to the so-called hammering method, in which an attempt is made to break through the bolt to move a short blow against the bias into the unlocked position and at the moment in which the bolt reaches the unlocked position to bring the associated counterpart into the open position.
  • electromechanical locks with an automatic function which have increased security against break-in attempts. Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide an electromechanical lock which provides an automatic function for automatically locking an associated counterpart as a result of a transfer of the counterpart relative to the locking mechanism of the lock from an open position to a closed position and a reliable locking of the counterpart in the closed position enabled against break-in attempts.
  • an electromechanical lock with the features of claim 1 and in particular in that the driver can be rotated into a release position, a ready position and a blocking position by means of the electric motor.
  • the driver By turning the driver into the release position, the bolt can be driven to move from the locked position into the unlocked position by means of the driver.
  • the driver When the driver is in the ready position, the bolt is released to be pushed back out of the locking position against the bias.
  • the driver blocks the bolt against movement out of the locking position in the direction of the unlocking position.
  • the lock has a control circuit which is designed to activate the electric motor for driving the driver into the release position, the ready position and the blocking position.
  • the already mentioned automatic function can be provided in particular, in that the bolt in the ready position can be driven by the associated counterpart during its transfer from the open position to the closed position from the locked position to the unlocked position in order to prevent the associated counterpart Reaching the closed position to be able to lock automatically.
  • the associated counterpiece can be provided to push the bolt into the unlocked position by moving it from the open position to the closed position against the pretension
  • the bolt and the associated counterpart can in particular be matched to one another in such a way that the associated counterpart does not push the bolt through a force directed in the direction of the open position can move from the locked position to the unlocked position.
  • the associated counterpart can be locked as soon as the counterpart occupies the closed position and the bolt comes into the locking position, so that locking the associated counterpart brought into the closed position does not have to require any separate action by a user or actuation of the driver.
  • the associated counterpiece can have a notch or a receptacle into which the bolt engages due to the preload in the locking position when the associated counterpiece is in the closed position.
  • the prestressing of the bolt can be generated in particular by a spring.
  • the counterpart In order to bring the associated counterpart from the open position into the closed position, the counterpart can be movable in particular relative to the locking mechanism between the open position and the closed position.
  • the counterpart can therefore urge the bolt out of the locking position into the unlocking position, in particular during such a movement relative to the locking mechanism, when the driver is in the ready position.
  • a user of the lock moves the associated counterpart from the open position to the closed position (in a rest system of the user), while the lock and/or the locking mechanism remain or remain unmoved.
  • the locking mechanism it is also possible for the locking mechanism to be moved by a user during use of the lock in order to bring the associated counterpart into the open position or into the closed position relative to the locking mechanism, while the counterpart can remain unmoved.
  • both the associated counterpart and the locking mechanism can be moved, in particular simultaneously and/or towards one another, in order to bring the counterpart from the open position into the closed position. Provision can also be made for the associated counterpart to be movable relative to the locking mechanism in order to transfer the associated counterpart from the closed position to the open position.
  • the bolt can be moved in a targeted manner from the locked position to the unlocked position by the electric motor using the control circuit to drive the driver is driven into the release position.
  • a user can transmit a predetermined unlocking command to the control circuit in order to cause the control circuit to activate the electric motor and to drive the driver into the release position, so that only the authorized user can open the lock.
  • an unlocking command can be transmitted by entering a code on an input device provided for this purpose on the lock or optionally via a radio connection, such as a Bluetooth connection, using a mobile radio device.
  • the lock Due to the ready position of the driver, the lock thus offers a convenient automatic function for automatically locking the associated counterpart immediately as a result of the associated counterpart being moved into the closed position and can be actuated by means of the electric motor in a simple manner and, for example, without a mechanical key, in order to selectively unlock the associated counterpart again for movement to the open position.
  • the security of the electromechanical lock against unauthorized opening attempts can be further increased by the blocking position of the driver by movement of the bolt in the direction of the unlocked position can be blocked by driving the driver in the blocking position.
  • the bolt While in the ready position it must be possible for the bolt to move into the unlocked position in order to be able to implement the desired automatic function, in the blocking position of the driver the bolt is secured against movement into the unlocked position, so that the bolt can be moved from the locked position into the unlocked position solely by transferring the driver into the release position. A movement of the bolt into the unlocked position in the course of an attempt to break in without actuating the driver or the electric motor can thus be reliably prevented.
  • the driver and the electric motor can also be protected from external access, for example by a housing of the lock or generally by an installation environment in which the lock and in particular the locking mechanism is used.
  • the blocking position of the driver can offer increased protection compared to the hammer blow method explained in the introduction, since the bolt is secured against movement into the unlocked position by driving the driver into the blocked position and thus movement into the unlocked position by an external and, for example, by a Impact applied to a housing of the lock force can be prevented.
  • provision can be made to drive or set the driver into the ready position when the associated counterpart assumes the open position relative to the locking mechanism, so that the automatic function for automatically locking the associated counterpart is available for a user and the bolt can be activated by transferring the associated counterpart to the closed position can first be moved into the unlocked position in order to then snap back into the locked position and lock the associated counterpart.
  • the driver can then be driven into the blocking position in order to achieve complete securing of the associated counterpart.
  • This driving of the driver into the blocking position can take place automatically, for example, after the associated counterpart has been brought into the closed position, for which purpose a corresponding sensor system can be provided.
  • a button or switch can be provided on an outside of the lock or in an installation area for the lock, or such a command can be transmitted to the control circuit via a radio link.
  • the driver While the associated counterpart is in the closed position, the driver can be held in the blocking position in order to secure the bolt in the locking position. If the control circuit then receives an unlocking command, the driver can be driven into the release position by means of the electric motor, so that the user can bring the associated counterpart into the open position. In particular, it can also be provided to drive the driver back into the ready position as soon as the associated counterpart assumes the open position relative to the locking mechanism, in order to bring the lock back to its initial state, in which the automatic function is ready. The driver can also be moved into the ready position automatically or by a separate command from a user, possibly again via a button or switch on an outside of the lock or an installation area for the lock or via a radio link.
  • the bolt can be blocked directly by contact with the driver, for example.
  • the driver can engage behind the bolt and/or a contact section of the bolt in the blocking position, so that movements of the bolt in the direction of the unlocked position can be restricted directly by the driver and movement into the unlocked position can be blocked.
  • the driver is designed to move a locking element during rotation into the blocking position, which blocks the bolt when the driver reaches the blocking position against movement into the unlocked position and, for example, the bolt in the blocked position of the driver engages behind.
  • the electromechanical locking mechanism can generally be used in an installation environment in order to be able to selectively block or release access to rooms or access to objects, for example, by locking the associated counterpart.
