Cabinet drawer drivingly connected locking mechanism

Abstract

A cabinet drawer drivingly connected locking mechanism which can be synchronously driven along by the opening and closing operation of the top cover of the cabinet body to complete the locking and unlocking state of cabinet drawers, including a sliding seat, an engaging body having an engaging hole and an elastic element, when the top cover is pressed on the engaging body, an anchoring hole of the engaging body will press against the elastic element causing it to bend and store elasticity, the engaging hole will be moved downwards to engage with the locking element so as to complete the locking state of the drawer, when the top cover is opened, the depressing force of the engaging body is released, the restored elasticity of the elastic element is released and carries the engaging body and the engaging hole to move upwards back to its original position, thus unlocked the drawer.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a cabinet drawer drivingly connected locking mechanism and, more particularly, to a locking mechanism that can be synchronously driven along by the opening and closing operation of the top cover of the cabinet body to complete the locking and unlocking state of cabinet drawers BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] In order to facilitate users to classify and reorganize the tools at home, there exists a so-called tool cabinet. Most existing tool cabinet comprises a body equipped by four sidewalls between four corner pods, one top cover and one base. The top of the body is an open end that can be opened or closed by the top cover. The interior of the cabinet body can install some partitions, the partitions and the top cover formed a compartment for storing tiny tools. And at least one sidewall having an open end which allows a sliding drawer to be horizontally inserted into the cabinet body. Since the cabinet may be moved abo...

Benefits of technology

[0005] It is a primary object of the present invention is to provide a cabinet drawer drivingly connected locking mechanism that can lock all the drawers at one time. And the locking and unlock state of the cabinet drawers can both be controlled by the opening and closing operation of the top cover of the cabinet.

Problems solved by technology

But a user has to use the tools inside the cabinet right after the cabinet is being transported, it will be time-consuming and inconvenient for the user to lock the drawers one by one before transporting the cabinet.

However, the above locking mechanism is quite difficult to assemble and the exertion of the second driving force is acceptable but very inconvenient.

All the other patents are using additional key unit to rotate the link design manually for locking and unlock the drawer which is very inconvenient.

This will not only causing inconveniency to actual operation and assembly, the shifting section will also damage the cover board easily which affect the overall aesthetic appealing.
