Problems solved by technology

[0013] From the above, it is clear that there are problems associated with locks for collapsible systems, especially in systems for personal health, which are necessary to ensure that a structure that allows a completely flat surface without gaps to perform surgery or transportation of patients or individuals
In addition, currently existing locking systems or hinges do not allow the assembly or disassembly of collapsible systems in a reliable and fast manner, but they are operator dependent, which is subject to human error

Embodiment Construction

[0022] The present invention relates to a locking mechanism for any type of foldable element or requiring a safe and suitable locking, characterized in that it comprises the following parts or components:

[0023] · A long liner (1) which is an element of the magnetic and electronic locking system (8) that internally carries most of the pins (7) or locking system (8) when unlocking the panel system, one panel in the liner (1) including the assembled collapsible system and install the entire locking mechanism;

[0024] a short liner (2) for assembling the panels against the long liner (1) assembly of the collapsible system and to hold the pins when the system is locked;

[0025] · Tilt sensor (3), ie accelerometer, inertial tracking unit or other type of sensor, can measure the orientation of the panel where the short pad (2) and long pad (1) are assembled. When the tilt sensor determines that the short pad (2) and the long pad (1) are parallel, the tilt sensor activates the p...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an automatic locking mechanism for collapsible systems. Said locking mechanism is used in any type of collapsible system, such as a stretcher that comprises a plurality of panels, wherein the smart locking of each of the collapsible panels is performed by a measurement system that determines when the panels are in the desired position, i.e. in parallel position relative to one another or positioned one after the other. The invention further relates to an electronic locking system which, when the panels reach the desired position, activates a magnetic lock to create a rigid unit from the panels that make up the collapsible system.

Description

technical field [0001] AUTOMATIC LOCKING MECHANISM FOR A FOLDABLE SYSTEM FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an automatic locking mechanism for a collapsible system, wherein such a locking mechanism is used with any kind of collapsible system, such as a stretcher consisting of multiple panels, where the smart locking of each foldable panel consists of a measurement system that determines when the folds are in the desired position, which is parallel to each other or one after the other; The magnetic lock is triggered when the panels create a rigid element including the foldable system. Background technique [0002] At present, foldable elements have become more and more required, because they allow to obtain larger elements in a reduced space, and to position them in such places as vehicles, luggage bags or any element used to make it easier to transport in short space. However, these foldable elements always present stability problems when in use, since...
