[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a hidden door lock assembly for a public toilet cubicle, which solves the technical problem that people outside the toilet may mistakenly pull the cubicle door to affect the user experience.

[0005] (2) Technical solution

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the main technical solutions adopted by this utility model include:

[0007] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a hidden door lock assembly for a public toilet, comprising a first door lock component mounted on a toilet door panel, a second door lock component mounted on the toilet compartment and horizontally corresponding to the first door lock component, and a lock core horizontally slidably arranged inside the first door lock component, the second door lock component is provided with a landing groove for sliding insertion of one end of the lock core at one end close to the first door lock component, a movable groove for horizontal movement of the lock core is provided inside the first door lock component, a buckle handle connected to the movable groove and for the operator's finger to be inserted and buckled is provided at one end of the first door lock component, the lock core comprises a main board and a sealing block arranged at the end of the main board away from the second door lock component, the sealing block blocks the opening of the buckle handle as the main board moves, a locking slide rod that moves synchronously is vertically provided at the end of the main board away from the buckle handle, and the locking slide rod passes through the end of the first door lock component away from the buckle handle.

[0008] The embodiment of the present utility model proposes a hidden door lock assembly for public toilets. When the entire door lock assembly is installed on the toilet compartment, the first door lock component is installed on the toilet door panel, and the second door lock component is installed to the position of the toilet compartment corresponding to the first door lock component. At this time, the lock core slides inside the first door lock component. When the user needs to enter the toilet compartment, the user directly inserts his finger into the buckle handle and rotates the toilet door panel. After entering the compartment, the user moves the locking slide bar from the inside of the compartment, so that the locking slide bar drives the lock core to move in the first door lock component until one end of the lock core passes through one end of the first door lock component and is inserted into the positioning groove of the second door lock component. At this time, the toilet door panel is locked, and from the outside of the toilet compartment, the buckle handle is blocked by the sealing block, so that the outside will not be able to pull the toilet door panel. This solution prevents outsiders from violently pulling the toilet door panel when there is someone in the toilet compartment, thereby affecting the people inside the compartment.

[0009] Optionally, the lock core further includes a buckle plate arranged in the middle of an end face of the main board away from the locking slide rod, a slot aligned with the buckle handle and for a finger to be inserted is formed between the buckle plate and the sealing block, and a buckle groove connected to the slot and for a finger to be inserted is formed between the buckle plate and the lock core.

[0010] By setting up a buckle plate, when opening the bathroom door panel, the finger first inserts the buckle handle, then into the slot, and finally into the buckle slot. At this time, the finger can directly buckle the end face of the buckle plate close to the main board, and then open the door panel. This solution makes the buckle plate the force-bearing point when opening the door panel, avoiding damage caused by long-term opening and buckling the door panel, and extending the service life of the door lock assembly.

[0011] Optionally, the gusset plate and the main board are integrally bent and formed.

[0013] Optionally, a text prompt mark is provided on one end surface of the sealing block that blocks the buckle handle.

[0014] By setting a text prompt mark on one end face of the sealing block's buckle handle, when the inside person locks the door lock assembly, the outside person can directly observe the text prompt mark on the sealing block, thereby knowing that there is someone inside, further reducing the chance of disturbing the insider of the compartment.

[0015] Optionally, a weight-reducing hole is vertically opened in the middle of the sealing block.

[0016] By vertically opening a weight-reducing hole in the middle of the sealing block, the mass of the sealing block is reduced, thereby reducing the mass of the synchronous movement driven by the locking slide when locking the door inside the compartment, thereby making the locking process easier and more convenient.

[0017] Optionally, the first door lock component has a horizontal groove on the end face facing away from the buckle handle for the locking slide rod to pass through and slide, and the locking slide rod is connected to the main board in a vertical direction. The first door lock component has a vertical groove on the end of the groove close to the second door lock component for the locking slide rod to slide into.

[0018] By providing a sliding groove and a card slot on one end face of the first door lock component, when locking the door lock assembly, the locking slide rod is first slid along the sliding groove until one end of the lock core is inserted into the landing groove, and then the locking slide rod is slid into the card slot. At this time, the door lock assembly is completely locked and cannot be opened from the outside. This solution makes the locking state of the door lock assembly safer.

[0019] Optionally, a compression spring is horizontally provided on the inner wall of the movable groove away from the second door lock component of the first door lock component, and one end of the compression spring is fixed to the sealing block.

[0020] By fixing a compression spring in the movable groove of the first door lock component, one end of the compression spring is connected to the sealing block, so that under the tension of the compression spring, the sealing block can be continuously pulled toward the side away from the positioning groove. When the person inside the bathroom compartment is ready to walk out of the compartment, he only needs to slide the locking slide bar out of the slot. Under the action of the compression spring, the entire lock core will be directly reset, thereby opening the bathroom door panel, which is more convenient.

[0021] Optionally, the lock core further comprises a sliding rod lock tongue detachably connected to an end of the main board away from the sealing block, and the sliding rod lock tongue moves with the main board and is inserted into the positioning groove.

[0022] The sliding bar lock tongue is detachably connected to the main board, thereby facilitating the installation of the entire door lock assembly.

[0023] (3) Beneficial effects

[0024] The beneficial effect of the present utility model is as follows: the hidden door lock assembly of the public toilet compartment of the present utility model, when the entire door lock assembly is installed on the toilet compartment, the first door lock component is installed on the door panel of the toilet, and the second door lock component is installed to the position of the toilet compartment corresponding to the first door lock component. At this time, the lock core slides inside the first door lock component. When the user needs to enter the toilet compartment, the user directly inserts his finger into the buckle handle and rotates the toilet door panel. After entering the compartment, the locking slide bar is moved from the inside of the compartment, so that the locking slide bar drives the lock core to move in the first door lock component until one end of the lock core passes through one end of the first door lock component and is inserted into the positioning groove of the second door lock component. At this time, the toilet door panel is locked, and from the outside of the toilet compartment, the buckle handle is blocked by the sealing block, so that the outside will not be able to pull the toilet door panel. This solution makes it impossible for outsiders to violently pull the toilet door panel when there is someone in the toilet compartment, thereby affecting the people inside the compartment.
