Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a locking rod guide that slidably supports a locking rod interlocking with a locking device mounted on a door with respect to the door.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A locking rod for transmitting a locking / unlocking operation of a driving plate fixed to a rotor of a locking device to a latch at a distal end portion is for guiding and restricting a movement direction of the locking rod in a correct direction when the locking device rotates. In addition, in order not to cause a shortage of the movement amount of the latch due to the bending deformation of the locking rod, it is necessary to slidably support the door at an intermediate portion between the locking device and the latch. Conventionally, a vertical plate portion of a support plate bent at a right angle is fixed to a door, and a locking rod is inserted through a through hole in a horizontal plate portion of the support plate.

However, in such a support structure,
Depending on the amount of protrusion of the horizontal bent portion formed at the upper edge portion of the door and the separation distance between the horizontal bent portion and the support plate, when the base end of the locking rod is first inserted into the through hole of the support plate, In some cases, the locking rod is obliquely disposed such that the distal end portion of the locking rod hits the horizontal bent portion of the door, and the base end of the locking rod cannot be connected to the driving plate of the locking device. for that reason,
It is necessary to carefully inspect and adjust in advance the amount of protrusion of the horizontal bent portion of the door and the position at which the support plate is fixed, and the mounting of the locking rod is not easy.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a locking rod guide which can easily mount a locking rod without being restricted by the fixing position of a support plate or the amount of protrusion of a horizontal bent portion of a door. Is to provide tools.

[0005]

The lock rod guide device of the present invention will be described below with reference to the reference numerals in the accompanying drawings. The lock rod guide device has a proximal end portion connected to each other by a longitudinal pivot portion 3a. Two half-sleeve bodies 3 and 3 surrounding the locking rod 8 from the side direction: inserted into the lateral holes 3b and 3b at the distal end of the half-sleeve bodies 3 and 3;
And a connecting member 4 for restraining the closed sleeves in a closed state: the closed half sleeve body 3 having the base end 2a fixed to the door 1 and closed.
A support plate 2 having a split groove 2b formed at the tip end portion 3 into which the fitting member 3 is fitted from the side, and hook portions 2c, 2c with which both ends of the coupling member 4 are engaged at both sides of the entrance of the split groove 2b.
Retaining groove 3 into which the edge of the split groove 2b fits.
c is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate portion of each half sleeve body 3.

In use, the base end 2a of the support plate 2 is used.
For example, is bent upward at a right angle, and the remaining main portion is arranged to be horizontal, and is fixed to the back surface of the door 1 by a fixing tool 7 such as a screw passing through the through hole 2d. As shown in FIG. 2, the half sleeve bodies 3 are rotated about the pivot 3 in the expanding direction, and the locking rod 8 is inserted from the side. By rotating the pivot 3a in the closing direction about the center, the lock rod 8 is slidably surrounded by the two half-half split sleeve bodies 3 and 3 in the longitudinal direction. While maintaining this closed state, the half sleeve bodies 3 and 3 are fitted into the split grooves 2b of the support plate 2 from the front end side entrance, and the half sleeve bodies 3 and 3 are inserted.
The edge of the split groove 2b is fitted into the retaining grooves 3c, 3c on the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate part. And finally, the half sleeve body 3,3
The coupling member 4 is inserted into the lateral holes 3b, 3b at the end of the support plate 2 and the hooks 2c, 2c at the end of the support plate 2.

Thus, the vertical withdrawal of the half sleeve bodies 3 from the support plate 2 and the rotation of the half sleeve bodies 3 and 3 in the expanding direction centering on the pivot 3a are all performed at the edge of the split groove 2b. The half sleeve bodies 3, 3 are prevented from engaging with the retaining grooves 3b, 3b by the engagement with the retaining grooves 3b. The locking rod 8 is stably supported so as to be slidable vertically along the back surface of the door 1.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the illustrated embodiment, a pivot 3a is shown.
The half-sleeve bodies 3 and 3 connected with each other are integrally formed of nylon resin, and the support plate 2 is formed by pressing a metal plate. Positioning projections 5 and recesses 6 that fit each other are provided on the joint end surfaces of the half sleeve bodies 3.
The half sleeve bodies 3 are closed with an appropriate sliding gap between the outer peripheral surface of the locking rod 8 and the inner peripheral surface of the half sleeve body. The coupling member 4 is made of a split pipe material having a spring property in a diameter direction, and is elastically adhered to the inner peripheral surface of the lateral hole 3b of the half sleeve body 3, thereby preventing the coupling member 4 from falling off. ing.

[0009]

In the locking rod guide device of the present invention configured as described above, the half sleeve bodies 3, 3 surrounding the locking rod 8 are provided with the retaining grooves 3c, 3c on the outer surface of the intermediate portion.
So that the edge of the split groove 2b fits into the split groove 2b of the support plate 2.
Then, the connecting member 4 is fitted into the lateral holes 3b, 3b of the half sleeve members 3, 3 and the hook portions 2c, 2c of the support plate 2 from the side direction. 2, the locking device (not shown) without being restricted by the fixing position of the support plate and the amount of protrusion of the horizontal bent portion of the door as in the related art.
The lock rod can be accurately and simply attached to the drive plate.
