[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a child lock mechanism for a safety door includes a door frame 21, a door body 20, a lock hole member 21, a handle member 24, a door lock assembly 27, an upper rotating lifting seat 23, a lower rotating lifting seat 25 and a bottom lock member 26.

[0034] The lock hole component 1 is arranged at the top position of the door frame 21, and a handle piece 24 is provided on the door body 20 at a position corresponding to the lock hole component 1, and a door lock assembly 27 cooperating with the lock hole component 1 is provided on the handle piece 24. A bottom lock component 26 is provided at the bottom of the door body 20 and on the same side of the door lock assembly 27; two rotating pulling seats are provided on the door body 20 at a side away from the door lock assembly 27, including an upper rotating pulling seat 23 arranged at the top of the door body 20 and a bottom lock component 26 arranged at the bottom of the door body 20; the door body 20 and the door frame 21 are connected by two upper and lower rotating pulling seats, so that the door body 20 can move in the vertical direction relative to the door frame 21, so that the door lock assembly 27 is disengaged from the lock hole component 1, and the door body 20 can rotate relative to the door frame 21, so that the door lock assembly 27 is separated from the lock hole component 1, thereby realizing double unlocking of the door body during the opening process.

[0035] The door lock assembly 27 includes a button assembly, a first telescopic head assembly, and a second telescopic head assembly. The button assembly is cooperatively mounted on the handle 24. The first telescopic head assembly is mounted on the button assembly and can move with the button assembly. The second telescopic head assembly is fixedly mounted on the handle 24, and the first telescopic head assembly is positioned above the second telescopic head assembly. Specifically, the button assembly includes a button 6 and a button cover 7. The first telescopic head assembly includes a first telescopic head 2 and a first return spring 10. The button 6 is provided with a first telescopic head seat. The first telescopic head 2 is cooperatively mounted on the first telescopic head seat. The first return spring 10 is positioned between the first telescopic head 2 and the first telescopic head seat. The second telescopic head assembly includes a second telescopic head 3, a second return spring 4, and a second telescopic head seat 5. The second telescopic head 3 is cooperatively mounted on the second telescopic head seat 5. The second return spring 4 is positioned between the second telescopic head 3 and the second telescopic head seat 5.

[0036] The end face of the lock hole component 1 is provided with an L-shaped lock hole 29 and a mouth-shaped lock hole 30 corresponding to the first telescopic head assembly and the second telescopic head assembly respectively, and the vertical lock hole top surface of the L-shaped lock hole 29 and the top surface of the mouth-shaped lock hole 30 are both slope structures; the slope structure can cooperate with the first and second telescopic heads. During the lifting process of the door body, the telescopic head contacts the slope structure, squeezing the telescopic head inward, thereby disengaging from the corresponding lock hole, preparing for opening and unlocking the door.

[0037] The upper rotating and pulling seat 23 is arranged at the top position of the door body 20, and the lower rotating and pulling seat 25 is arranged at the bottom position of the door body 20, and the lower rotating and pulling seat 25 can limit the movement of the door body 20 in the vertical direction.

[0038] The upper rotating lifting seat 23 includes an upper rotating lifting seat main body 14 arranged on the door frame 21 and an upper rotating lifting seat end cap 13 arranged on the door body 20. The guide hole of the upper rotating lifting seat end cap 13 cooperates with the guide column of the upper rotating lifting seat main body 14. When the door body moves up and down, the guide column on the upper rotating lifting seat main body 14 can guide the upper rotating lifting seat end cap 13.

[0039] The lower rotating lifting seat 25 includes a lower rotating lifting seat body 15 arranged on the door frame 21, a lower rotating lifting seat end cap 17 and a spring member 16 arranged on the door body 20. The guide hole column of the lower rotating lifting seat end cap 17 is cooperated and arranged in the guide column of the lower rotating lifting seat body 15. The guide hole column is provided with a limiting hole along its axial direction. The spring member 16 is arranged in the limiting hole and is locked to the top of the guide column of the lower rotating lifting seat body 15 by a screw. Unlike the upper rotating lifting seat 23, the spring member 16 of the lower rotating lifting seat 25 can be compressed during the lifting process of the door body, so that there is resistance during the lifting process of the door body, and it is not easy for children to lift it, thereby improving the safety of the child lock.

[0040] The bottom lock 26 includes a third telescopic head seat 18, a third telescopic head 31, a door stop 19 and a third return spring 22. The third telescopic head seat 18 is fixedly set on the door body 20, the door stop 19 is set on the door frame 21, the third telescopic head 31 is set on the third telescopic head seat 18, and the third return spring 22 is set between the third telescopic head seat 18 and the third telescopic head 31. The door stop 19 is provided with a mouth-shaped lock hole 30 that cooperates with the third telescopic head 31, and the top surface of the mouth of the mouth-shaped lock hole 30 is a slope structure. The principle of cooperation between the slope structure and the third telescopic head 31 here is the same as the above-mentioned door lock assembly.

[0041] A door stopper 28 is provided on the door frame 21 above the door stopper 19 . The door stopper 28 includes a door stopper body 11 and a door stopper cover 12 . The function of the door stopper 28 is to prevent the door from opening in the reverse direction.

[0042] The handle member 24 includes a first handle sub-member 8 and a second handle sub-member 9. The first handle sub-member 8 and the second handle sub-member 9 are spliced ​​together and installed at the top of the door body by bolts. The handle member 24 is provided with grooves and holes for installing the button assembly. The button assembly is cooperatedly arranged on the handle member 24. When pressing the button, the button can move inward and can automatically reset after releasing it.

[0043] The working process of the child lock mechanism of the safety door includes the following steps:

[0044] Door opening process:

[0045] 1) Press and hold the button in place, and push the first telescopic head from the horizontal lock hole of the L-shaped lock hole to the vertical lock hole;

[0046] 2) Keep the button pressed and lift the entire door upward at the handle position. At this time, the spring set in the lower connecting seat is compressed. Continue to lift until the spring is compressed to the limit position;

[0047] 3) At this time, the first telescopic head, the second telescopic head and the third telescopic head are all in the limit of contraction and just disengage from the corresponding lock holes, pulling the door body outward, and the door body moves relative to the door frame to open the door;

[0048] Closing process:

[0049] 4) The door body automatically closes under the action of the upper rotating lifting seat and the lower rotating lifting seat, wherein the upper rotating lifting seat end cap and the upper rotating lifting seat body of the upper rotating lifting seat are respectively provided with oblique cuts. After releasing the hand, the door body moves relative to the door frame. When the first telescopic head, the second telescopic head and the third telescopic head come into contact with the lock hole member, they directly squeeze the first telescopic head, the second telescopic head and the third telescopic head to shrink until the first telescopic head, the second telescopic head and the third telescopic head enter the corresponding lock hole, thereby realizing automatic locking of the door.

[0050] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not limitations on the technical solutions of the present invention. Any technical solution that can be implemented on the basis of the above embodiments without creative work should be deemed to fall within the scope of protection of the patent of the present invention.
