DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0025] A three-rod handle lock with an indication function comprises an inner handle assembly, an outer handle assembly, and a hollow square rod. The two ends of the hollow square rod are connected to the inner handle assembly and the outer handle assembly respectively. The inner handle assembly comprises an inner handle body and an inner rotating column. The inner rotating column is rotatably arranged in the inner handle body. The outer handle assembly comprises an outer handle body and an outer rotating column. The outer rotating column is rotatably arranged in the outer handle body. A window opening is provided on the surface of the outer handle body. The top of the outer rotating column can be seen through the window opening. An indicating color plate is provided on the top of the outer rotating column. A relatively movable rotating column connecting rod is provided in the hollow square rod. The rotating column connecting rod is in the shape of a strip. One end of the inner rotating column and the outer rotating column are both provided with a slot that cooperates with the rotating column connecting rod. A protruding structure is provided near the middle section of the rotating column connecting rod. The width of the protruding structure is greater than the inner cavity of the hollow square rod. A through hole is also provided on the surface of the outer handle body. The through hole is adjacent to the window opening. The outer rotating column is topped with a cylindrical shaft. A first through-hole is located in the center of the color indicator plate, which is fitted over the cylindrical shaft. The cylindrical shaft then inserts into a through-hole on the outer handle body. A boss is also located on the top of the outer rotating column. A second through-hole is located adjacent to the first through-hole on the color indicator plate, which fits over the boss. Rotation of the outer rotating column drives the color indicator plate through the engagement of the boss and the second through-hole. A coin slot is also located on the surface of the cylindrical shaft at the top of the outer rotating column.
[0026] The actual usage is as follows:
[0027] In a public environment where privacy is required (for example, a public restroom), the user initially stands outside the door and presses the exterior handle to open the door lock tongue. This mechanism is similar to that of a traditional handle lock and will not be further described. Once opened, the user enters the door and closes it. This rotates the inner column, which in turn rotates the column connecting rod. The raised structure on the column connecting rod activates the locking tongue. As the locking tongue closes, the column connecting rod rotates the outer column, which in turn rotates a color indicator plate on the outer column. The indicator plate can use color or text to indicate the state of use, as long as it serves to alert outsiders.
[0028] The cylindrical axis of the external rotating column is inserted into the through hole of the external handle body, which can achieve axial positioning of the two, so that the indicator color plate will not be offset during assembly.
[0029] In an emergency, an outsider can insert a coin into the coin slot and rotate the outer rotating cylinder to release the locked state of the door lock bolt.
[0030] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above-mentioned exemplary embodiments, and the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the present invention is limited by the appended claims rather than the above description. Therefore, it is intended that all changes that fall within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are included in the present invention.
