[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the cabinet door lock for aircraft toilets of the present invention includes a first mounting plate 1, a second mounting plate 2 and an elastic member 4, one end of the first mounting plate 1 is used to connect to the cabinet body, and the other end of the first mounting plate 1 has a first hook portion 11; the second mounting plate 2 is arranged at an interval from the first mounting plate 1, one end of the second mounting plate 2 is used to connect to the inner side of the cabinet door 100, and the other end of the second mounting plate 2 is slidably penetrated by a pull rod 3, and the end of the pull rod 3 close to the first hook portion 11 is provided with a second hook portion 31; one end of the elastic member 4 is connected to the cabinet door 100, and the other end of the elastic member 4 is connected to the end of the pull rod 3 away from the first mounting plate 1 to apply elastic force to the pull rod 3, so that the pull rod 3 moves in a direction away from the first hook portion 11; a first stopping structure 51 is provided on the outside of the pull rod 3, and the pull rod 3 is moved in a direction close to the first hook portion 11, the first stopping structure 51 and the second mounting plate 2 stop and the second hook portion 31 moves to the opening 112 of the first hook portion 11.
[0030] During use, after moving the pull rod 3 so that the first stopping structure 51 is stopped by the second mounting plate 2, the second hook portion 31 moves to the opening 112 of the first hook portion 11, and then the cabinet door 100 is pushed inward, and the second hook portion 31 enters the hook groove 111 of the first hook portion 11 through the opening 112. After loosening the pull rod 3, under the action of the elastic member 4, the pull rod 3 moves away from the first hook portion 11, and the first hook portion 11 and the second hook portion 31 are hooked together, thereby realizing the locking of the cabinet door 100 and the cabinet body. The cabinet door lock for aircraft toilets of the present invention has a simple structure, is easy to process and assemble, and is easy to maintain.
[0031] To ensure stable hooking of the second hook with the first hook, in this embodiment, the first hook portion 11 has a hook groove 111, the length direction of the hook groove 111 is parallel to the length direction of the pull rod 3, and the opening 112 of the first hook portion 11 is arranged at the end of the hook groove 111 away from the pull rod 3. Specifically, in this embodiment, the pull rod 3 is arranged vertically, and the hook groove 111 is arranged vertically in the length direction. The opening 112 of the first hook portion 11 is set at the upper part of the hook groove 111, and the elastic member 4 applies a downward elastic force to the pull rod 3, lifting the pull rod 3 upward, so that the pull rod 3 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member 4 and moves upward. When the first stopping structure 51 stops with the lower end of the first mounting plate 1, it indicates that the second hook portion 31 moves into position. At this time, the second hook portion 31 is exactly opposite to the opening 112 of the first hook portion 11 front and back. Push the cabinet door 100 backward, and the second hook portion 31 enters the hook groove 111 of the first hook portion 11. After releasing the pull rod 3, the pull rod 3 moves downward under the elastic force of the elastic member 4, so that the second hook portion 31 is stably stuck in the hook groove 111, realizing the locking of the cabinet door 100 with the cabinet body.
[0032] To facilitate the second hook portion 31 to enter the hook groove 111 through the opening 112, in this embodiment, the groove wall on the side of the opening 112 close to the first mounting plate 1 has a guide surface 113, and the guide surface 113 extends obliquely toward the cabinet door 100 and toward the first mounting plate 1 away from the end of the hook groove 111.
[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the pull rod 3 is a round rod, and the second hook portion 31 includes an arc segment 311 and a straight rod segment 312. The straight rod segment 312 is arranged parallel to the pull rod 3 and spaced apart. One end of the arc segment 311 is connected to the pull rod 3, and the other end of the arc segment 311 is connected to the straight rod segment 312. The straight rod segment 312 is slidably arranged in the second mounting plate 2. The straight rod segment 312 and the pull rod 3 are inserted into the second mounting plate 2 at the same time, so that the pull rod 3 can only slide up and down relative to the second mounting plate 2 and cannot rotate relative to the second mounting plate 2. In other embodiments of the present invention, the pull rod 3 can be set as a polygonal rod body to prevent the pull rod 3 from rotating relative to the second mounting plate 2, and there is no need to slide the straight rod segment 312 through the second mounting plate 2.
[0034] In this embodiment, a second stop structure 52 is provided on the outer side of the straight rod section 312. The second stop structure 52 stops the upper end of the second mounting plate 2, so that the inner top end of the arcuate section 311 is flush with the end of the guide surface 113 away from the hook groove 111. The provision of the second stop portion defines the lowest position of the pull rod 3, so that when the pull rod 3 is in the lowest position, it is flush with the lowest point of the guide surface 113. At this time, when the cabinet door 100 is pushed into the cabinet, the guide surface 113 can drive the pull rod 3 upward to the opening 112, thereby allowing the pull rod 3 to automatically enter the hook groove 111.
[0035] To further improve the stability of the pull rod 3 during movement, in this embodiment, a third mounting plate 6 is fixed to the cabinet door 100 and is spaced apart from the second mounting plate 2. The end of the pull rod 3 away from the first mounting plate 1 slides through the third mounting plate 6. Specifically, the third mounting plate 6 is located directly below the second mounting plate 2 and provides a guide for the lower end of the pull rod 3.
[0036] Among them, there are many ways to set up the elastic member 4. In this embodiment, the end of the pull rod 3 away from the second mounting portion passes through the third mounting plate 6 and is provided with a stop ring 7 spaced apart from the third mounting plate 6. The elastic member 4 is a compression spring sleeved on the outside of the pull rod 3, one end of the compression spring abuts against the stop ring 7, and the other end of the compression spring abuts against the third mounting plate 6. The pull rod 3 plays a guiding role for the compression spring, ensuring the stable operation of the compression spring. In other embodiments of the present invention, the elastic member 4 can be a tension spring, one end of the tension spring is connected to the third mounting plate 6, and the other end of the tension spring is fixedly connected to the position of the pull rod 3 between the second mounting plate 2 and the third mounting plate 6.
[0037] In this embodiment, the end of the pull rod 3 away from the second mounting plate 2 is provided with an external thread, and the retaining ring 7 is an adjusting screw sleeve threadedly assembled on the external thread. By rotating the screw sleeve, the distance between the screw sleeve and the third mounting plate 6 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the pre-compression of the compression spring, which in turn adjusts the elastic force of the elastic member 4, ensuring that the first hook portion 11 and the second hook portion 31 are tightly connected.
[0038] In this embodiment, the first stopping structure 51 is a first sleeve fixedly sleeved on the outside of the pull rod 3 , and the second stopping structure 52 is a second sleeve fixedly sleeved on the outside of the straight rod section 312 .
[0039] In this embodiment, the lower end of the pull rod 3 protrudes out of the lower end of the cabinet door 100 , and the cabinet door 100 can be opened by pushing the lower end of the pull rod 3 upward.
[0040] The method of using the aircraft toilet cabinet door lock of the utility model is as follows:
[0041] When closing the cabinet door 100, first turn the cabinet door 100 to a nearly closed state, then lift the pull rod 3 upward so that the first stopping structure 51 abuts against the lower end of the first mounting plate 1, then push the cabinet door 100 inward, and the second hook portion 31 enters the hook groove 111 of the first hook portion 11 through the opening 112, then release the pull rod 3, and the elastic member 4 pulls the pull rod 3 downward, so that the second hook portion 31 is stably stuck in the hook groove 111; when opening the cabinet door 100, first lift the pull rod 3 upward, and then gently pull the cabinet door 100 outward, the second hook portion 31 disengages from the opening 112 to the outside of the hook groove 111, and then the cabinet door 100 can be opened.
[0042] In summary, the cabinet door lock for an aircraft toilet of the present invention comprises a first mounting plate 1, a second mounting plate 2 and an elastic member 4. One end of the first mounting plate 1 is used to connect to the cabinet body, and the other end of the first mounting plate 1 has a first hook-shaped portion 11; the second mounting plate 2 is spaced apart from the first mounting plate 1, and one end of the second mounting plate 2 is used to connect to the inner side of the cabinet door 100.
