The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated, that is, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In addition, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a locking device for an aircraft toilet door according to an embodiment of the utility model comprises a door frame 1 and a door body 2 installed in the door frame 1, slots 21 are provided at both ends of the door body 2 in the height direction, a plug hole 11 is provided on the door frame 1 opposite to the slot 21, a mounting groove 22 is provided on the surface of the door body 2, the mounting groove 22 is communicated with the slot 21, and the locking device comprises a spring 3, a rotating shaft 4, a locking block 5 and a locking screw 6.

[0027] The spring 3 is arranged in the slot 21; the rotating shaft 4 is arranged in the slot 21, and the rotating shaft 4 is provided with a screw hole 41 arranged along the width direction of the door body 2, the first end of the rotating shaft 4 abuts against the spring 3, and the second end of the rotating shaft 4 extends outwardly to the insertion hole 11 of the door frame 1, and the rotating shaft 4 is configured to enable the door body 2 to rotate in the door frame 1 to open or close the door; the locking block 5 is installed in the installation groove 22, and the locking block 5 is provided with a through hole 51 arranged along the width direction of the door body 2; one end of the locking screw 6 passes through the through hole 51 of the locking block 5 and is installed in the screw hole 41 of the rotating shaft 4, for limiting the position of the rotating shaft 4 in the slot 21.

[0028] Based on the above-mentioned structural setting, the rotating shaft 4 is provided with a screw hole 41 arranged along the width direction of the door body 2, the first end of the rotating shaft 4 is abutted against the spring 3, and the second end of the rotating shaft 4 extends outwardly to the insertion hole 11 of the door frame 1. The rotating shaft 4 is configured to enable the door body 2 to rotate in the door frame 1 to open or close the door, and one end of the locking screw 6 passes through the through hole 51 of the locking block 5 and is installed in the screw hole 41 of the rotating shaft 4, which is used to limit the position of the rotating shaft 4 in the slot 21, so as to ensure that the rotating structure of the door body 2 in the door frame 1 is stable, and the rotating shaft 4 can be extended and retracted after removing the locking screw 6, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the door body 2.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the ultimate compression length of the spring 3 is greater than the sum of the height of the shaft 4 extending out of the door frame 1 and the height of the insertion hole 11. By removing the locking screw 6 from the screw hole 41 of the shaft 4, a downward force is applied to the end of the shaft 4 so that the spring 3 is compressed, and the shaft 4 is completely in the slot 21. At this time, it is convenient to directly remove the door body 2 from the door frame 1 for maintenance.

[0030] Specifically, the inner diameter of the slot 21 is equal to the inner diameter of the insertion hole 11, and both are larger than the diameter of the shaft 4. When the door body 2 needs to rotate to open or close the door, the shaft 4 can rotate in the insertion hole 11 of the door frame 1.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, the locking screw 6 includes a screw portion 61 and a knob portion 62 connected to one end of the screw portion 61. The screw portion 61 passes through the through hole 51 of the locking block 5 and is installed in the screw hole 41 of the rotating shaft 4. The knob portion 62 is conveniently rotated directly by hand to install the screw portion 61.

[0032] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the locking block 5 includes a lining plate 52, a protrusion 53 provided on a first side surface of the lining plate 52, and a mounting block 54 provided on a second side surface of the lining plate 52, wherein the protrusion 53 is configured to be installed in the mounting groove 22, thereby defining the position of the locking block 5. The lining plate 52 and the mounting block 54 are located outside the surface of the door body 2, and the through hole 51 is provided in the mounting block 54.

[0033] Specifically, a support groove 531 is provided at one end of the protrusion 53 close to the mounting block 54, and the support groove 531 is communicated with the through hole 51. The locking screw 6 is passed through the through hole 51 and the support groove 531 in sequence, which is convenient for positioning and installation.

[0034] Furthermore, the radial section of the support groove 531 is semicircular, and the diameter of the support groove 531 is equal to the diameter of the through hole 51. The shape and size are used to adapt to the locking screw.

[0035] In one embodiment, the width of the lining plate 52 is greater than the width of the protrusion 53, and the width of the lining plate 52 is equal to the width of the mounting block 54. When the protrusion 53 is installed in the mounting groove 22, the lining plate 52 and the mounting block 54 can be located on the surface of the door body 2, which is convenient for installation and removal.

[0036] In one embodiment, the locking block 5 is a stainless steel block, and the lining plate 52, the protrusion 53 and the mounting block 54 are integrally formed, thereby reducing production costs.

[0037] The above is only a preferred embodiment 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 principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
