[0004] However, the above-mentioned disclosed solutions have the following shortcomings: the existing lock core using a conventional key is convenient for configuration and also convenient for use with other tools to unlock, which makes the security low and cannot effectively protect the cabinet. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the technical problem that the existing lock core using a conventional key is convenient to configure and is also convenient to use other tools to unlock, resulting in low security and failure to effectively protect the cabinet, and provides a lock for a cabinet.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The utility model discloses a lock for a cabinet, comprising a mask plate and a keyhole; a center tube is fixedly connected to one side of the mask plate; a keyhole is provided on the center tube; a symmetrical groove is provided in the keyhole; a cylindrical key is inserted in the keyhole; an alignment groove is symmetrically provided on the cylindrical key; a rounded corner block is connected to a slotted pin in the alignment groove; the rounded corner block is inserted in the symmetrical groove, the rotation groove and the positioning groove; the rotation groove is rotationally symmetrically provided in the center tube; the positioning groove is symmetrically provided in the lock tongue; an elastic band is fixedly connected to the slot on the rounded corner block; a positioning block is fixedly connected to the end of the elastic band; the positioning block is inserted and fixed in the symmetrical groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a hexagonal nut is threadedly sleeved on the central tube; the locking tongue is movably inserted in the central tube; and a limiting piece is threadedly sleeved on the central tube corresponding to the locking tongue.

[0009] Furthermore, a fastener is inserted into a symmetrical opening on the lock tongue; a slider is threadedly sleeved on the end of the fastener; a spring is fixed to the slider; and the end of the spring is fixed in the semi-arc groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the angle between the initial angle of the lock tongue and the direction of gravity is forty-five degrees.

[0011] Furthermore, the central tube is plugged into the cabinet door.

[0012] The utility model provides a cabinet lock, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The utility model inserts the central tube into the hole on the cabinet door and fixes it with bolts. Then, when the lock tongue needs to be rotated to fix it, it is only necessary to pre-align the cylindrical key with the key hole, align the rounded corner block and insert it into the symmetrical groove, then insert the cylindrical key to the bottom, and then pull the cylindrical key back so that the rounded corner block is inserted into the rotating groove and the positioning groove. At this time, rotating the cylindrical key can drive the lock tongue to rotate to a vertical state. At this time, the lock is opened and the cabinet door can be rotated, which solves the problem of poor anti-theft function of existing lock keys;

[0014] 2. The utility model uses the elastic force of the spring to make the slider and the fastener slide to the end of the semi-arc groove and stop, and then rotates with the lock tongue, so that the lock tongue is pushed by the spring at an inclined angle in the initial state, so that the cabinet door can be stuck, thereby completing the normally closed function. The lock tongue can only be rotated to a vertical state when the cylindrical key is inserted and rotated, so as to facilitate opening the cabinet door, and after the cylindrical key is loosened by hand, the lock tongue returns to its original angle, so that the cabinet door cannot be closed, thereby reminding the personnel to close the cabinet door and lock it, preventing accidental opening caused by the half-opening of the cabinet door, realizing a fool-proof function of the cabinet door locking, and solving the problem that the existing cabinet lock does not have a fool-proof locking.

At this time, rotating the cylindrical key 3 can drive the lock tongue 17 to rotate to a vertical state. At this time, the lock is opened and the cabinet door 18 can be rotated, which solves the problem of poor anti-theft function of the existing lock key; the hexagonal nut 6 is used in conjunction with the center tube 11 and the mask plate 1 to complete the locking on the cabinet body, and then the external bolts can be used to reinforce the connection again. The displacement of the lock tongue 17 can be limited by the limit member 16, so that the lock tongue 17 can only perform rotational movement, which makes it safer.
