For example, it can mean fixed connection, detachable connection, or integral connection; it can be mechanical connection or electrical connection; it can be direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] See Figure 1-4 This is an embodiment of the three-point mechanical lock of the utility model.

[0026] It includes a central lock 1, in which an upper pull rod 2 and a lower pull rod 3 are provided. The end of the upper pull rod 2 is connected to an upper lock body 4, and the end of the lower pull rod 3 is connected to a lower lock body 5; wherein, the lower lock body 5 includes a lock shell 6, a lock tongue 7 arranged on the lock shell 6, a lock plate 8 for limiting the lateral movement of the lock tongue 7, and a linkage mechanism 9 for driving the lock tongue 7 to move.

[0027] On the basis of the existing central lock 1, an upper lock body 4 and a lower lock body 5 are arranged in linkage through an upper pull rod 2 and a lower pull rod 3. When in use, when the central lock 1 is locked, the upper pull rod 2 will drive the upper lock body 4 to lock, and the lower pull rod 3 will drive the lower lock body 5 to lock, forming a three-point mechanical lock. The three-point lock can better prevent illegal persons from kicking and prying the door and other burglary behaviors.

[0028] The upper lock body 4 and the lower lock body 5 of the device can be set to the same symmetrical structure. When in use, the locking is completed through the linkage mechanism 9;

[0029] The linkage mechanism 9 includes a first slide plate 10 and a second slide plate 11 slidably disposed in the lock housing 6 , and a lock tongue reset structure 13 and a lock tongue push structure 14 disposed between the first slide plate 10 and the second slide plate 11 ;

[0030] The first slide 10 and the second slide 11 are fixed to the upper pull rod 2 or the lower pull rod 3. When the upper pull rod 2 or the lower pull rod 3 moves, the first slide 10 and the second slide 11 will move up and down in the lock shell 6, and at the same time drive the lock tongue reset structure 13 and the lock tongue pushing structure 14 to work, allowing the lock tongue 7 to move laterally in the lock plate 8.

[0031] Among them, the lock tongue pushing structure 14 includes a rotating shaft 141 arranged between the first slide 10 and the second slide 11, an elastic member 142 is arranged on the rotating shaft 141 for controlling the rotation of the rotating shaft 141, and a control arm 143 is also arranged on the rotating shaft 141; the middle part of the control arm 143 is bent, and the middle part is rotatably set on the lock shell 6 through the limit shaft 144, and the end is hinged on the lock tongue 7.

[0032] When the first slide 10 and the second slide 11 move downward, the rotating shaft 141 rotates, driving the elastic member 142 to accumulate elastic potential energy, and at the same time, the rotating shaft 141 drives the control arm 143 to rotate; due to the setting of the limit shaft 144 in the middle part of the control arm 143, the end of the control arm 143 will rotate around the limit shaft 144, and then the end of the control arm 143 will drive the lock tongue 7 to move horizontally, completing the locking and unlocking operations.

[0033] A sliding groove 145 is provided at the end of the control arm 143 , and a fixing column is provided in the sliding groove 145 , and the fixing column is fixed on the lock tongue 7 .

[0034] The end of the control arm 143 is connected to the lock tongue 7 by a sliding groove 145 and a fixing column, which is a common method in the field, and the purpose is to ensure stable movement of the lock tongue 7.

[0035] When the lock tongue is reset, it needs to rely on the lock tongue reset structure 13, which includes a mounting plate 131 arranged at the end of the first slide 10, and a spring 132 is arranged on the mounting plate 131, and one end of the spring 132 is fixed to the lock housing 6.

[0036] When the first slide 10 and the second slide 11 move downward, the spring 132 will accumulate elastic potential energy like the elastic member 142. When the upper pull rod 2 or the lower pull rod 3 is relaxed, the spring 132 releases the elastic potential energy and pushes the first slide 10 and the second slide 11 upward. At this time, the lock tongue 7 is reset and the locking is completed.

[0037] The first slide 10 is provided with a through-limiting groove 133 in the middle, in which a limiting post 134 is slidably arranged, and the limiting post 134 is fixed to the lock housing 6. The limiting groove 133 and the limiting post 134 are provided to limit the distance that the first slide 10 and the second slide 11 can move up and down.

[0038] The elastic member 142 in the present device is a prior art in the art, and its main function is the same as that of the spring 132 .

[0039] The central lock 1 is provided with an inner pull module and an outer pull module; the outer pull module and the inner pull module are fixed to the central lock 1 through a decorative cover.

[0040] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
