[0054] Reference Figures 3 to 5 In this embodiment, the slide groove 230 is a round hole groove, and the corresponding adjustment rod 300 is a round rod. The adjustment rod 300 transmits the rotation torque to the insertion section 220 through the first limiter 310 and the limiter groove 222, so that the adjustment rod 300 can rotate coaxially with the insertion section 220. On the basis of the above, there are two limiter grooves 222, and the two limiter grooves 222 are respectively arranged on both sides of the slide groove 230, and the first limiter 310 is inserted into the two limiter grooves 222, so that the adjustment rod 300 can transmit the torque to the insertion section 220 through two fulcrums, so that the force is better transmitted to the insertion section 220 and the main section 210. It should be noted that after the lock head 40 of the front handle 10 is unlocked, the lock head 40 pushes the adjusting rod 300 to extend and retract, so that the front handle 10 is transmission-connected with the adjusting rod 300. At this time, by rotating the front handle 10, the rotational torque can be transmitted to the insertion section 220, and then to the rear rod 200 and the rear handle 20. Therefore, the user can rotate the front handle 10 to drive the rear handle 20 to rotate, and the rotation of the rear handle 20 can unlock the lock body 30 of the door lock, thereby achieving the purpose of opening the door.

[0055] In addition, in some other embodiments, the slide groove 230 can also be a square groove, and the corresponding adjustment rod 300 is a square rod, so that the adjustment rod 300 transmits torque to the insertion section 220 to ensure that the torque of the front handle 10 can be transmitted to the rear rod 200 and the rear handle 20.

[0062] Reference Figures 6 to 8 The present embodiment also provides a door lock, which includes: a front handle 10, a rear handle 20, a lock body 30, a lock head 40 and the above-mentioned adjustable square rod, wherein the front handle 10 is connected to the front rod 100, and the rear handle 20 is connected to the rear rod 200; that is, the front handle 10 is connected to the front rod 100 through a square hole, and the rear handle 20 is connected to the rear rod 200 through a square hole, so that the front handle 10 can drive the front rod 100 to rotate, and the rear handle 20 can drive the rear rod 200 to rotate; the lock head 40 is arranged on the front handle 10, and the lock head 40 has a telescopic block, which is located at the front side of the adjusting rod 300 and the telescopic block abuts against the adjusting rod 300, so that the lock head 40 can drive the telescopic block to extend and retract when unlocking, so as to drive the adjusting rod 300 to extend and retract in the front-to-back direction, so that the adjusting rod 300 is transmission-connected to the front handle 10, so that the front handle 10 can drive the rear handle 20 to rotate.

[0063] The lock body 30 has a clutch fork 31 and a square rod hole 32 arranged on the clutch fork 31; the positioning member 500 abuts against the front side of the lock body 30, and the rear rod 200 is located in the square rod hole 32 and is transmission-connected to the clutch fork 31; the rear rod 200 is connected to the square rod hole 32, and when the rear handle 20 is rotated, the clutch fork 31 can be driven to rotate to drive the lock tongue of the lock body 30 to retract, and when unlocking, the rear handle 20 can be rotated to retract the lock tongue of the lock body 30, so as to achieve the purpose of unlocking and opening the door. When the lock head 40 drives the telescopic block to extend or retract, the adjustment rod 300 is transmission-connected to the front handle 10. Refer to Figure 6 Since the adjusting rod 300 rotates coaxially with the rear rod 200, the front handle 10 can transmit torque to the rear rod 200 and the rear handle 20 through the adjusting rod 300. At this time, rotating the front handle 10 can rotate the rear handle 20, so that the rear handle 20 drives the clutch fork 31 to rotate, so that the lock tongue of the lock body 30 retracts, thereby achieving the purpose of unlocking and opening the door.

[0064] The specific door lock installation process is as follows: install the lock body 30 of the door lock on the door body, then extend the adjustable square rod from front to back into the square rod hole 32 of the lock body 30 of the door lock until the positioning member 500 abuts against the door lock, thereby completing the preliminary positioning of the adjustable square rod; then align the square hole of the front handle 10 with the front rod 100 and the adjusting rod 300, and install the front handle 10 on the door, thereby completing the positioning and installation of the front handle 10; wherein, since the lock head 40 of the front handle 10 abuts against the front end of the adjusting rod 300, the front handle 10 can push the front rod 100 toward the door lock through the adjusting rod 300, the elastic member 400, and the insertion section 220 to fix the positions of the front rod 100 and the rear rod 200, thereby making the adjustable square rod positioned and installed between the lock body 30 and the front handle 10, and the front handle 10 is connected to the square rod to ensure correct installation. Finally, align the square hole of the rear handle 20 with the rear rod 200, and then install the rear handle 20 on the door to complete the installation of the entire door lock. Therefore, during the entire door lock installation process, there is no need to install additional springs, nor is there any need to position and install springs at the front handle 10 and the rear handle 20. Only the adjustable square rod needs to be aligned with the square rod hole 32 of the lock body 30 to smoothly install it, which greatly reduces the difficulty of installation and makes the door lock installation more convenient and quick. The installer will not encounter installation misalignment or spring omission during on-site installation, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0065] When installing the door lock of this embodiment, the positioning piece 500 of the adjustable square rod is used to position with the lock body 30 of the door lock, so that the front rod 100 and the rear rod 200 are positioned and connected with the lock body 30 of the door lock, and the positions of the front rod 100 and the rear rod 200 can be fixed, so that the front handle 10 and the adjustable square rod are connected, ensuring that the front handle 10 and the square rod are accurately installed, and there is no need to position and install the spring at the front handle 10 or the rear handle 20, which reduces the installation steps and greatly reduces the difficulty of installation, making the door lock installation more convenient and quick. The installer will not encounter installation misalignment or spring omission during on-site installation, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 6 , when the lock 40 drives the telescopic block to retract, the adjusting rod 300 is connected in transmission with the front handle 10. Since the elastic member 400 provides a forward elastic force for the adjusting rod 300, the adjusting rod 300 can exert a forward pressure on the telescopic block. When the telescopic block of the lock 40 is retracted, the adjusting rod 300 can be displaced forward under the action of the elastic member 400, so that the adjusting rod 300 is connected in transmission with the front handle 10. At this time, the front handle 10 can be rotated to drive the rear handle 20 to rotate, so as to achieve the purpose of unlocking and opening the door. It should be noted that when the telescopic block of the lock 40 is in the extended state, the telescopic block pushes the adjusting rod 300 to disengage from the transmission structure of the front handle 10, and the adjusting rod 300 and the front rod 100 cannot transmit torque, thereby ensuring the safe use of the door lock. It can be mentioned that in the present embodiment, when the lock 40 is unlocked without inserting the key, the lock 40 is in an extended state, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 When the lock 40 is inserted with a key and turned to the unlocking position, the telescopic block of the lock 40 is in a retracted state. Figure 6 .

[0067] Reference Figures 5 to 7 In some embodiments of the present invention, the front side of the front end of the adjusting rod 300 is provided with a transmission part 340 for contacting with the telescopic block, and the front handle 10 is provided with a transmission groove 11 for transmission connection with the transmission part 340; when the telescopic block is retracted, the transmission part 340 extends into the transmission groove 11, so that the front handle 10 is transmission connected with the adjusting rod 300. That is, the transmission structure on the front handle 10 is the transmission groove 11, and the shape of the transmission groove 11 is adapted to the shape of the transmission part 340, so that the front handle 10 can transmit torque to the adjusting rod 300, so that the front handle 10 can drive the rear handle 20 to rotate, and ensure the normal unlocking and use of the door lock.

[0068] Reference Figures 5 to 7On the basis of the above, the transmission part 340 is in a "I" shape, and the transmission groove 11 is in a "X" shape. That is, the "I"-shaped transmission part 340 can be inserted into the "X"-shaped transmission groove 11, so that the transmission part 340 and the transmission groove 11 cooperate to transmit, so that the front handle 10 can transmit torque to the adjustment rod 300, so that the front handle 10 can drive the rear handle 20 to rotate, ensuring that the door lock is normally unlocked. In addition, the transmission part 340 can also be in a square, triangle, pentagon, hexagon and other shapes, and the transmission groove 11 can be a square groove, a triangular groove, a pentagonal groove, a hexagonal groove and other shapes that cooperate with the transmission part 340 to transmit torque.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, the clutch fork 31 includes a rotating shift block 33, a clutch, and a clutch rotor 35; the clutch is used to engage the rotating shift block 33 and the clutch rotor 35 or to disconnect the rotating shift block 33 and the clutch rotor 35; the square rod hole 32 is provided on the rotating shift block 33, and the clutch rotor 35 is transmission-connected with the front rod 100. That is, the rear rod 200 can drive the rotating shift block 33 to rotate through the square rod hole 32, so as to drive the lock tongue of the lock body 30 to extend and retract. The clutch can be a clutch controlled by a motor. When the door lock is in a locked state, Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1 , the clutch pin 34 of the clutch is not inserted into the clutch rotor 35, so that the clutch rotor 35 is disconnected from the rotating block 33. At this time, even if the front handle 10 is turned, the rotating block 33 cannot be driven to rotate. Figure 8 As shown, when unlocking is required, the motor drives the clutch pin 34 to be inserted into the clutch rotor 35 so that the clutch rotor 35 engages with the rotating block 33 to transmit torque. At this time, the front handle 10 can be rotated to drive the rotating block 33 to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of unlocking.

[0070] like Figure 6 As shown, when the lock 40 needs to be unlocked, the key is inserted into the lock 40 and rotated to the unlocking state, the telescopic block of the lock 40 is retracted, and the transmission part 340 of the adjustment rod 300 is inserted into the transmission groove 11 of the front rod 100. At this time, the front handle 10 is connected to the rear rod 200 and the rear handle 20 through the adjustment rod 300. At this time, the front handle 10 can be rotated to drive the rear handle 20 to rotate, so as to drive the rotating block 33 to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of unlocking and opening the door. Conversely, when the key is rotated to the locking state, the telescopic block of the lock 40 extends out, pushing the transmission part 340 to the outside of the transmission groove 11, so that the transmission part 340 is disconnected from the transmission groove 11 and cannot transmit torque, thereby achieving the purpose of locking.

[0071] The installation process of the door lock of this embodiment is as follows: the lock body 30 of the door lock is installed on the door body, and then the adjustable square rod is extended from front to back into the square rod hole 32 of the lock body 30 of the door lock until the positioning member 500 abuts against the door lock, thereby completing the preliminary positioning of the adjustable square rod; then the square hole of the front handle 10 is aligned with the front rod 100 and the adjusting rod 300, and the front handle 10 is installed on the door, thereby completing the positioning and installation of the front handle 10; wherein, since the lock head 40 of the front handle 10 abuts against the front end of the adjusting rod 300, the front handle 10 can push the front rod 100 toward the door lock through the adjusting rod 300, the elastic member 400, and the insertion section 220 to fix the positions of the front rod 100 and the rear rod 200, thereby making the adjustable square rod positioned and installed between the lock body 30 and the front handle 10, and the front handle 10 is connected to the square rod to ensure correct installation. Finally, align the square hole of the rear handle 20 with the rear rod 200, and then install the rear handle 20 on the door to complete the installation of the entire door lock. Therefore, during the entire door lock installation process, there is no need to install additional springs, nor is there any need to position and install springs at the front handle 10 and the rear handle 20. Only the adjustable square rod needs to be aligned with the square rod hole 32 of the lock body 30 to smoothly install it, which greatly reduces the difficulty of installation and makes the door lock installation more convenient and quick. The installer will not encounter installation misalignment or spring omission during on-site installation, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0072] In summary, when the adjustable square rod of the present embodiment is installed in the door lock, the positioning member 500 is used to position the lock body 30 of the door lock, so that the front rod 100 and the rear rod 200 are positioned and connected with the lock body 30 of the door lock, and the positions of the front rod 100 and the rear rod 200 can be fixed, so that the front handle 10 is connected with the adjustable square rod, and the front handle 10 and the square rod are accurately installed. There is no need to position and install the spring at the front handle 10 or the rear handle 20, which reduces the installation steps and greatly reduces the installation difficulty, making the door lock installation more convenient and quick. The installer will not encounter the problem of installation misalignment or spring omission during on-site installation, thereby improving the installation efficiency. Moreover, the front rod 100 can cover the slide groove 230 to prevent the slide groove 230 from being exposed, and can prevent dust or foreign matter from falling into the slide groove 230, thereby avoiding the situation where dust or foreign matter falls into the slide groove 230 and affects the extension and retraction of the adjustment rod 300 and causing functional failure, thereby ensuring that the adjustable square rod can be used normally and ensuring the normal use of the door lock.

[0073] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
