Due to the convenience of unlocking, existing door locks are easily opened privately by young children, resulting in reduced safety.

Method used

A door lock with a rotating switch button is designed. By setting a switch mechanism on the knob, it cannot be twisted directly in a natural state, and the switch needs to be pressed to rotate, thereby enhancing safety performance. The switching mechanism includes a limiting groove, a limiting column, a return spring and a pushing column. The elastic force and structural design of the spring make the knob unable to rotate in a locked state. After pressing the switch, the knob can rotate in an unlocked state.

[0024] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0025] As attached Figure 1 , Attachment Figure 2 As shown, a door lock with a rotary switch button comprises a shell 1 and a puller 3 arranged in the shell 1 and used to drive a lock tongue 2 to unlock or lock, a knob 4 which can drive the puller 3 to rotate is arranged on the outer side of the shell 1, and the puller 3 is connected with a reset mechanism which drives it to reset, and a switch mechanism which is used to limit the rotation of the knob 4 is arranged between the shell 1 and the knob 4, so that the knob 4 is in a locked state in a natural state and cannot drive the puller 3 to rotate together, and by adding a switch mechanism to the knob, it cannot be twisted directly, and the switch needs to be pressed to rotate the knob when opening the door, thereby effectively enhancing the safety performance of the door lock and preventing young children from opening the door lock privately.

[0026] In this embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 3 , Attachment Figure 4As shown, the switch mechanism includes a button 5 arranged on the knob 4, a first limiting groove 11 with an opening toward the knob 4 is arranged on the housing 1, and the knob 4 is provided with a second limiting groove 41 corresponding to the first limiting groove 11 and communicating with the first limiting groove 11 after assembly, and the switch mechanism also includes a limiting column 6 and a first return spring 7 arranged in the first limiting groove 11, and the limiting column 6 is clamped between the first limiting groove 11 and the second limiting groove 41 under the elastic force of the first return spring 7, so that the knob 4 is in a locked state and cannot be rotated; the knob 4 is locked with the housing 1 by the limiting column 6, and the structure is simple. When the button 5 is pressed, the button 5 drives the limiting column 6 to withdraw from the second limiting groove 41, so that the knob 4 is in an unlocked state and can be rotated; the knob 4 is provided with a second return spring 8 that drives the button 5 to return, and the button 5 is used to realize the push-type unlocking, which has a simple structure and is easy to use.

[0027] In order to ensure the assembly space and improve the assembly accuracy, the housing 1 is provided with a mounting portion 12 protruding outwardly on one side facing the knob 4, and a first through hole 13 is provided in the mounting portion 12. The knob 4 is provided with a connecting portion 42 that can be inserted into the first through hole 13. The connecting portion 42 is fixedly connected with the puller 3 after passing through the first through hole 13. In the prior art, there are many ways of fixed connection, such as threaded connection, snap connection, welding, riveting, etc. In this embodiment, threaded connection is preferred, which is easy to assemble. The first limiting groove 11 is provided on the mounting portion 12 and is located on the outside of the first through hole 13, and the second limiting groove 41 is provided on the outside of the connecting portion 42 corresponding to the first limiting groove 11.

[0028] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the user to unlock the door, the switch mechanism further includes a push column 9 disposed in the second limit groove 41, and the button 5 is disposed on the outside of the knob 4. The pressing direction of the button 5 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the limit column 6, which is more convenient for the user to unlock the door by pressing the button 5 while holding the knob 4. The knob 4 is also provided with a pressing notch 43 that is perpendicular to the second limit groove 41, and the push column 9 is provided with an inclined surface 91 facing the button 5 on the side away from the limit column 6. Figure 8As shown, the button 5 has a pushing portion 51 that can pass through the pressing notch 43 and abut against the inclined surface 91, and the second return spring 8 is sleeved on the pushing portion 51; when the button 5 is pressed, the pushing portion 51 pushes the pushing column 9 to move toward the limiting column 6 through the inclined surface 91 so that the limiting column 6 exits the second limiting groove 41; through the inclined surface 91 of the pushing column 9, the transmission conversion of the force in the 90-degree direction is realized, the structure is simple, and the design is ingenious. The side of the limiting column 6 facing the knob 4 is a ball head, which can prevent mechanical jamming and is more conducive to the rotation of the knob 4. When the end face of the pushing column 9 facing the limiting column 6 is flush with the notch of the second limiting groove 41, the knob 4 is in an unlocked state.

[0029] In order to further disclose the structure of the knob 4 and more clearly disclose the assembly relationship between each component and the knob 4, as shown in the attached Figure 5 , Attachment Figure 6 As shown, the knob 4 is mainly composed of a knob housing 401 and a knob cover 402 covering the front end of the knob housing 401, the second limiting groove 41, the connecting portion 42 and the pressing notch 43 are respectively arranged on the knob housing 401, and the outer side of the knob housing 401 is provided with a key notch 403 for the key 5 to slide up and down; as shown in the attached Figure 8 As shown, the outer side of the button 5 is provided with a stopper 52 protruding outward. After assembly, the stopper 52 abuts against the inner edge of the button notch 403, and limits the button 5 to prevent the button 5 from popping out of the knob 4 under the elastic force of the second return spring 8. In this embodiment, the knob cover 402 is provided with a protrusion 46 on the side facing the knob housing 401. After assembly, the protrusion 46 is inserted into the second stopper groove 41 to limit the push column 9. The knob housing 401 and the knob cover 402 are fixed by a threaded connection.

[0030] In this embodiment, a threaded hole 44 is provided in the connection part 42, and the connection part 42 is threadedly connected to the puller 3 by a screw 100. Specifically, the screw 100 is a cross head screw in the prior art. In order to facilitate the knob 4 to drive the puller 3 to rotate, a key 45 is formed on the front end of the connection part 42, and the puller 3 is provided with a slot 31 matching the key 45. During assembly, after the connection part 42 passes through the first through hole 13, the key 45 is inserted into the slot 31, and the screw 100 passes through the slot 31 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 44. The structure is simple and the design is ingenious.

[0031] As attached Fig. 9 , Attachment Fig.10As shown, one end of the puller 3 is provided with a first toggle part 32 for toggle the lock tongue 2, and the other end of the puller 3 is symmetrically provided with a second toggle part 33 adapted to the first toggle part 32; the reset mechanism includes a limiter 10 hinged in the housing 1, one end of the limiter 10 abuts against the outside of the puller 3, and at the same time abuts against the outside of the first toggle part 32 and the second toggle part 33. The other end of the limiter 10 is provided with a first spring column 101, and the housing 1 is also provided with a second spring column 102. The reset mechanism also includes a return spring 103, one end of the return spring 103 is sleeved on the first spring column 101, and the other end of the return spring 103 is sleeved on the second spring column 102. When the knob 4 drives the puller 3 to rotate, the puller 3 also drives the limiter 10 to rotate, and at the same time the limiter 10 stretches the return spring 103; after the belt is unlocked, the return spring 103 pulls the limiter 10 to reset, and at the same time the limiter 10 pushes the puller 3 to rotate and reset, and the knob 4 rotates and resets along with the puller, which has a simple structure and ingenious design.
