Lock for a shutter or door

Abstract

The invention relates to a lock for a shutter or door, particularly for a vehicle, with a safety catch consisting of a rotary latch and at least one catch for locking the rotary latch, particularly with a deadlock lever for blocking the catch in the main holding position with a deadlock lever axle and / or catch axle arranged above the rotary latch axle. The occurrence of false closures can be avoided because the deadlock lever would be aligned by the force of gravity alone such that it would not be in the deadlock position and / or the catch would be aligned such that it would not be in the main holding position.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a lock for a cover or a door having the features of the preamble of claim 1 . The door or cover may be that of a motor vehicle or a building. Background technique

[0002] The aforementioned lock comprises a locking device having a rotary latch and at least one pawl, with which the rotary latch can be locked in the closed position via the latch and a locking surface of the rotary latch. The locking surfaces are those surfaces of the rotary catch and pawl which abut one another in order to lock the locking device and subsequently overlap. In the closed position, the turning catch can hold the stop of the door or cover so that the door or cover cannot be opened. If the rotary catch is in the open position, the stop can be released from the locking device and the door or cover can be opened. A cover is understood here to mean the rear cover of a motor vehicle. In addition to this use, the lock can also be used, for example, in...

Embodiment Construction

[0038] figure 1 The locking device of a motor vehicle door lock in the locked and locked state in the main locking position is shown, which locking device comprises a rotary locking fork 1 and a locking claw 2 for locking the rotary locking fork 1 and for locking the locking claw 2 The deadlocking lever 3, which is locked in the main locking position, also comprises a deadlocking lever axis 5 and a pawl axis 6 arranged above the rotary lock axis 4 (ie opposite to the direction of gravity 7).

[0039] It is to be noted that the invention addresses a lock comprising a plurality of pawls, a so-called multi-pawl locking device. However, the invention expressly does not only relate to multi-jaw locking devices, but can also be transferred to all other locks with locking devices.

[0040] The locking pawl 2 locks the rotary latch 1 with its locking surface 8 , which rests with its locking surface 9 on the locking surface 8 of the locking pawl 2 . In the exemplary embodiment, the p...
