Obviously, the described embodiment is only part of, rather than all of the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor shall belong to the protection scope of this application.

[0035] Reference to "an example" or "an embodiment" herein means that a particular feature, structure or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment or an embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is appreciated explicitly and implicitly by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0036] In this specification, for the sake of convenience, words and expressions indicating orientation or positional relationship such as "middle", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "inner" and "outer" are used to illustrate the positional relationship of constituent elements with reference to the attached drawings, only for the convenience of description. The positional relationship of the constituent elements is appropriately changed according to the direction of the described constituent elements. Therefore, it is not limited to the words and expressions described in the specification, and can be replaced appropriately according to the situation.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 13, an anti-theft protection device for a split-type doubledoor-handle lock includes a first lock body 1 and a second lock body 4 which are hinged with each other. The first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are connected through a rotating shaft 3, so that the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 have the freedom to rotate relative to the rotating shaft 3.

[0038] The first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are provided with locking structures on the sides far away from the hinge shaft, which can lock the two lock bodies, that is, the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 have a relatively unfolded state and a relatively closed state. In the closed state, the locking structures can lock the two lock bodies to prevent the two lock bodies from unfolding.

[0039] The first lock body 1 is provided with two notches 102 on the side far away from the hinge shaft. After locking, the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 form an integral structure with a cavity for accommodating the handles. The pivot parts 8 of the split-type double-door handle are located in the two notches 102, and a grip part 9 is located in the cavity, thus locking the double-door handles. In the locked state of the anti-theft protection device, the pivot parts 8 of the handles are located in the notches 102, and the grip part 9 of the handle enters the cavity formed by the two lock bodies, wherein the size and shape of the cavity are designed to accommodate the grip part 9 of the double-door handle. In this way, the grip part 9 is also effectively fixed by the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4, so that the grip part 9 cannot be rotated or operated, and the door can be prevented from being opened after the handle is pressed, and at the same time, the door can be prevented from being easily opened after the door lock is damaged.

[0040] It can be appreciated that the anti-theft protection device physically fixes the pivot part 8 and the grip part 9 of the double-door handle, thus effectively preventing malicious unlocking and vandalism, improving the safety of the door lock, and enabling users to use the split-type double-door-handle lock with more confidence.

[0041] Specifically, the locking structure includes a lock hole 101 provided at the edge position of the first lock body 1 and a deadbolt 6 slidably installed inside the second lock body 4. The edge position of the deadbolt 6 is provided with a lock hook 601 that can be inserted into the lock hole 101, After the lock hook 601 is inserted into the lock hole 101, the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are locked.

[0042] In this embodiment, the lock hole 101 can be circular, square or other shapes, and the lock hook 601 is adapted to the shape of the lock hole 101. The selection for the position of the lock hole 101 and the lock hook 601 ensures that the lock hook 601 can be inserted into the lock hole 101 smoothly and accurately when the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are closed.

[0043] In this embodiment, when the user closes the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4, the notch 102 and the cavity between them respectively accommodate the pivot part 8 and the grip part 9 of the double-door handle. Then, by operating the deadbolt 6, the user aligns the lock hook 601 on the deadbolt 6 with the lock hole 101 on the first lock body 1 and inserts the lock hook 601 into the lock hole 101. Once the lock hook 601 is completely inserted into the lock hole 101, the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are firmly connected together, achieving an effective lock on the double-door handle. At this time, even if someone tries to open the door lock by rotating the grip part 9, it cannot be successful.

[0044] More specifically, in order to improve the locking effect, the number of lock holes 101 on the edge of the first lock body 1 is at least three, and the number of lock hooks 601 on the edge of the deadbolt 6 is at least three. After the deadbolt 6 is translated, the lock hooks 601 can be locked into the lock holes 101 to prevent the first lock body 1 from being separated from the second lock body 4.

[0045] Specifically, the locking structure also includes a shifting block 7 connected with the deadbolt 6 and extending to the outside of the second lock body 4, and the shifting block 7 is used to drive the deadbolt 6 to move horizontally inside the second lock body 4, which is convenient for operation. More specifically, in the initial state, the deadbolt 6 may be in the unlocked position, and the shifting block 7 extends to the outside of the second lock body 4, so that the user can conveniently operate the shifting block 7. When the user needs to operate the shifting block 7 to lock the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4, the user first closes the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4, so that the notch 102 and the cavity between them respectively accommodate the pivot part 8 and the grip part 9 of the double-door handle. Then, the user drives the deadbolt 6 to move by pushing or pulling the shifting block 7, so that the lock hook 601 on the deadbolt 6 is aligned with the lock hole 101 on the first lock body 1 and inserted into the lock hole 101. Once the lock hook 601 is completely inserted into the lock hole 101, the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are firmly connected together, forming an effective lock on the double-door handle. At this time, the shifting block 7 can be kept in the locked position to prevent other users from operating and avoid stealing. When unlocking is needed, the user only needs to operate the shifting block 7 again to drive the deadbolt 6 to move reversely, so that the lock hook 601 can be disengaged from the lock hole 101.

[0046] In addition, in another embodiment, the deadbolt 6 can also be locked or unlocked by the thumbwheel coded lock, that is, the deadbolt 6 can only be moved when the password is correct. The locking structure and principle of this thumbwheel coded lock belong to the conventional technology in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0047] Specifically, the shifting block 7 is provided with an indication mark 701 for assisting locking and unlocking, so as to facilitate the user to distinguishing the locking and unlocking directions.

[0048] In this embodiment, the indication mark 701 can take various forms, such as arrows, characters, symbols or color coding, to ensure that users can clearly see it under different lighting conditions. When the user needs to lock the door, he can determine whether to push or pull the shifting block 7 and the direction of pushing or pulling by observing the indication mark 701 on the shifting block 7. It can be ensured that the lock hook 601 on the deadbolt 6 can be accurately inserted into the lock hole 101, thus achieving locking. Similarly, in the unlocking process, the user can also operate the shifting block 7 according to the indication mark 701 to ensure that the deadbolt 6 can move correctly, so that the lock hook 601 can be disengaged from the lock hole 101.

[0049] Specifically, two first linings 2 are installed inside the first lock body 1. The first linings 2 cover the inner wall of the first lock body 1 and the edges of the notches 102. The first linings 2 are used to prevent the handle on the door panel from directly contacting the first lock body 1 after locking. The first linings 2 are used as the parts that directly contact the handle, which can not only prevent the first lock body 1 from being damaged after colliding with the handle for a long time, but also improve its sealing performance and prevent dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the first lock body 1 and affecting the normal operation of the lock.

[0050] Specifically, two second linings 5 are installed inside the second lock body 4, and the edge positions of the second linings 5 are integrally connected with protective strips 501 corresponding to the positions of the notches 102 of the first lock body 1. The protective strips 501 are in contact with the edges of the second linings 5, which has the same function as the above-mentioned first linings 2. On the one hand, it is to avoid the damage of the second lock body 4 caused by the contact between the handle and the inner wall of the second lining 5, and on the other hand, the edge of the second lock body 4 can be protected by the protective strip 501, and when the handle contacts the edge of the second lock body 4, the protective strip 501 plays a protective role.

[0051] Specifically, the edge position of the second lock body 4 is provided with a protrusion 402, and the edge position of the first lock body 1 is provided with a groove corresponding to the protrusion 402. When the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are closed, the protrusion 402 is placed in the groove. The hinged ends of the two lock bodies can limit their axial movement, and the arrangement of the protrusion 402 and the groove can make the ends of the two lock bodies far away from the hinged shaft can also limit their axial movement, thus avoiding the problem of relative movement of the two lock bodies.

[0052] In this embodiment, the shape, size and position of the groove and the protrusion 402 are designed correspondingly to ensure that the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 can cooperate with each other after being closed. Specifically, when the two lock bodies are closed, the protrusion 402 will slide along a predetermined path and be embedded in the groove. This arrangement ensures the tight connection between the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4, and prevents the looseness or separation caused by external impact or vibration.

[0053] Specifically, a toggling member 401 protruding outwards is provided at a position outside the second lock body 4. In this example, the toggling member 401 is integrally connected to the outer side of the second lock body 4, and the length of the toggling member 401 is the same as that of the second lock body 4, so that the toggling member 401 can be toggled to rotate the second lock body 4 relative to the first lock body 1 after the two locks are unlocked.

[0054] Specifically, the cross-sectional shapes of the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are semi-circular, and the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are closed to form a cylindrical structure, which has the advantage of beautiful structure. In addition, the shapes of the two lock bodies can also adopt regular polygonal structure, oval structure and the like.

[0055] More specifically, the lock hook 601 includes a base 602 and an extend-in part 603. The base 602 is provided corresponding to the protrusion 402, and the extend-in part 603 is provided at one side of the base 602 along the sliding direction of the deadbolt 6.

[0056] Wherein, the base 602 is adapted to the shape of the protrusion 402, and the inside of the protrusion 402 is a cavity structure, so that the base 602 is located inside the protrusion 402. When the deadbolt 6 slides in the second lock body 4, the extend-in part 603 can extend out of or retract into the protrusion 402; further, when the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 are rotated and closed, the protrusion 402 of the second lock body 4 will correspondingly be located in the groove of the first lock body 1, that is, the lock hook 601 will follow the protrusion 402 and be located in the groove, wherein the lock hole 101 is disposed on the wall surface of the groove of the first lock body 1, by which the extend-in part 603 of the lock hook 601 can be inserted into the lock hole 101 when sliding out of the protrusion 402, so that the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 cannot rotate relatively, and the locking function of the first lock body 1 and the second lock body 4 is realized

[0057] It should be appreciated that when the anti-theft protection device for a split-type double-door-handle lock is used, after the door is closed, the notches 102 of the first lock body 1 can be aligned with the pivot parts 8 of the two door handles in the door, the grip part 9 of the handle can be placed inside the first lock body 1, and then the second lock body 4 is rotated to make the two lock bodies in a closed state. Then the deadbolt 6 inside the second lock body 4 can be driven to move by moving the shifting block 7. The lock hook 601 on the deadbolt 6 can be clamped into the lock hole 101 of the first lock body 1 to complete the locking work of the anti-theft protection device. In this state, because the grip parts 9 of the two handles are in the same cavity, even if the handle outside the door is pressed, the door will not be unlocked, and even if the door lock is broken, the door will not be opened when a stranger pushes the door hard, which has the advantages of simple structure, convenient operation and good anti-theft effect.

[0058] The technical means disclosed in the solution of the present disclosure are not limited to the technical means disclosed in the above embodiments, but also include the technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and embellishments can be made without departing from the principle of the present disclosure, and these improvements and embellishments are also regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
