[0027] The lock tongue is connected to the lock tongue positioning block;

[0028] The lock tongue always extends out of the lock housing under the elastic force of the lock tongue return spring;

[0029] The locking tongue positioning block is provided with a second abutting groove.

[0030] When the door is closed, the safety tongue assembly is compressed and recovered, and drives the separation plate to rotate; the lateral stopper abuts against the second abutment groove under the elastic force of the stopper spring, thereby locking the lock tongue.

[0031] Further, the stopper spring comprises a stopper spring body, a third extending end and a fourth extending end, wherein:

[0032] The block spring body and the fourth extension end are both connected to the lock housing, and the third extension end is connected to the lateral block.

[0033] Furthermore, the lock tongue is a two-way flip lock tongue.

[0034] To sum up, the present invention provides a lock body that automatically locks when the door is closed. When the door is closed, the safety tongue assembly is compressed and recovered, so that the connecting plate and the lateral block are not subject to the elastic force of the separation plate spring. The lateral block locks the lock tongue assembly under the elastic force of the block spring, thereby realizing the function of automatic locking when the door is closed.

[0046] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0047] like Figure 1-7As shown, the present invention provides a lock body for closing a door and automatically locking the door, comprising a lock housing 1. In this embodiment, the lock housing 1 is a cavity housing with a square cavity, and a separation plate assembly 4 and a safety tongue assembly 2 are arranged in the cavity housing. The safety tongue assembly 2 comprises a safety tongue 21, a safety tongue positioning block 22 and a safety tongue reset spring 23. The safety tongue 21 is connected to the safety tongue positioning block 22; one end of the safety tongue reset spring 23 is connected to the safety tongue positioning block 22, and the other end is connected to the first mounting plate 16 on the lock housing 1. Thus, the safety tongue 21 always extends out of the lock housing 1 under the elastic force of the safety tongue reset spring 23; the safety tongue positioning block 22 is provided with a first abutting groove 221; the separation plate assembly 4 comprises a separation plate 41 and a separation plate spring 42, and the lock housing 1 is further provided with a first positioning column 11, and the separation plate 41 is provided with a through hole. By inserting the through hole on the separation plate 41 into the first positioning column 11, the separation plate 41 is rotatably connected to the lock housing 1. The separation paddle spring 42 includes a paddle spring body 421, a first extending end 422 and a second extending end 423. In the present embodiment, the paddle spring body 421 and the first extending end 422 are both wound into a cylindrical shape, and the second extending end 423 extends directly. A first boss 411 and a second boss 412 are provided on the separation paddle 41. The paddle spring body 421 is sleeved on the first boss 411, and the first extending end 422 is sleeved on the second boss 412. In addition, a second positioning column 12 is further provided on the lock housing 1, and the second extending end 423 abuts against the second positioning column 12.

[0048] When the door is closed, the safety tongue 21 is compressed by the door frame and retracted, thereby driving the safety tongue positioning block 22 to retract. When the safety tongue positioning block 22 is retracted, its first abutment groove 221 can abut against the separation plate 41, thereby driving the separation plate 41 to overcome the elastic force of the separation plate spring 42 and rotate.

[0049] The lock body further comprises a transmission plate assembly 5 and a bolt assembly 3, wherein the bolt assembly 3 comprises a bolt 31, a bolt positioning block 32 and a bolt return spring 33, wherein the bolt 31 is connected to the bolt positioning block 32, wherein one end of the bolt return spring 33 is connected to the bolt positioning block 32, and the other end is connected to the second mounting plate 17 on the lock housing 1. Thus, the bolt 31 always extends out of the lock housing 1 under the elastic force of the bolt return spring 33. In this embodiment, the width of the bolt 31 is greater than the width of the safety tongue 21, so when the door is closed, the bolt 31 is compressed and recovered before the safety tongue 21. The bolt positioning block 32 is also provided with a second abutting groove 321.

[0050] The transmission plate assembly 5 includes a connecting plate 53, a lateral stopper 51 and a stopper spring 52. The connecting plate 53 is provided with a first mounting hole 533 and a second mounting hole 534. In this embodiment, the first mounting hole 533 and the second mounting hole 534 are waist-shaped holes. The lock housing 1 is provided with a fourth positioning column 14 and a fifth positioning column 15. By inserting the first mounting hole 533 and the second mounting hole 534 into the fourth positioning column 14 and the fifth positioning column 15 respectively, the connecting plate 53 is slidably connected to the lock housing 1. In addition, the fourth positioning column 14 and the fifth positioning column 15 are both provided with guide columns 6. By providing the guide columns 6, the shaking of the connecting plate 53 can be limited, thereby improving the stability of the connecting plate 53 when sliding. The two ends of the connecting plate 53 are respectively provided with a first bending portion 531 and a second bending portion 532. The lateral stopper 51 is provided with a mounting groove 511, which is in an inverted L-shape and includes a horizontal portion 5111 and a vertical portion 5112. By inserting the second bending portion 532 into the vertical portion 5112 of the mounting groove 511, the lateral stopper 51 can be mounted on the connecting plate 53. The stopper spring 52 includes a stopper spring body 521, a third protruding end 522 and a fourth protruding end 523. In this embodiment, the block spring body 521 is wound into a cylindrical shape, and the third extension end 522 and the fourth extension end 523 are directly extended; the lock housing 1 is provided with a third positioning column 13 and a bolt positioning block guide plate 34, and the block spring body 521 is sleeved on the third positioning column 13; the third extension end 522 is inserted into the horizontal part of the installation groove 511, and the fourth extension end 523 is in contact with the side of the bolt positioning block guide plate 34. Therefore, the lateral block 51 can be in contact with the second abutment groove 321 of the bolt positioning block 32 under the elastic force of the block spring 52, so that the recovery of the bolt 31 is limited, thereby realizing the locking of the bolt 31.

[0051] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0052] When the door is not closed, that is, the safety tongue 21 is not compressed, its separation plate 41 abuts against the first bent portion 531 on the connecting plate 53 under the elastic force of the separation plate spring 42, and drives the first bent portion 531 to abut against the first mounting plate 16. At this time, the lateral stopper 51 on the connecting plate 53 is separated from the second abutting groove 321 on the lock tongue positioning block 32, and the recovery of the lock tongue 31 is not restricted, thereby achieving unlocking of the lock tongue 31.

[0053] When closing the door, the lock tongue 31 is compressed and recovered before the safety tongue 21, and then the second abutting groove 321 on the lock tongue positioning block 32 is first driven to recover. When the safety tongue 21 is compressed, it drives the separation plate 41 to overcome the elastic force of the separation plate spring 42 and rotate, and the separation plate 41 and the connecting plate 53 no longer abut each other. At this time, the lateral block 51 on the connecting plate 53 abuts against the side of the lock tongue positioning block 32 under the elastic force of the block spring 52, and is located above the second abutting groove 321. When the door is closed, that is, the lock tongue 31 is reset and inserted into the lock hole, the second abutting groove 321 also extends and abuts against the lateral block 51, so that the recovery of the lock tongue 31 is restricted, thereby achieving the locking of the lock tongue 31.

[0054] The technical means disclosed in the scheme of the present invention are not limited to the technical means disclosed in the above-mentioned implementation mode, but also include technical schemes composed of any combination of the above-mentioned technical features. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications are also regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
