[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The utility model discloses a multi-purpose rotary knob combination lock, comprising a shell 1, a lock bar 2 arranged in the shell 1, and a reset spring 3 for resetting the lock bar 2. The end of the shell 1 is provided with a through hole 1, and the lock bar 2 has a locking end 4 that can pass through the through hole 1. The lock bar 2 is provided with a guide hole 5, which is a rectangular long hole. The shell 1 is provided with a guide plate 6, and the guide plate 6 is located in the guide hole 5. One end of the reset spring 3 is against the guide plate 6 and the other end of the reset spring 3 is against the hole wall of the guide hole 5. The guide plate 6 can not only serve as a support for the reset spring 3, but also can cooperate with the guide hole 5 to guide the shell 1 to move linearly along the guide hole 5.
[0027] In the present application, when the correct password is input into the dial ring 7, the protrusion 8 of the lock bar 2 will be opposite to the unlocking notch 9 on the lock plate, so that the lock bar 2 has space to move, and the return spring 3 can push the lock bar 2 to move toward the inside of the housing 1, and the protrusion 8 of the lock bar 2 will be embedded in the unlocking notch 9 on the lock plate 10, and the locking end 4 will retract from the through hole 1 to unlock; when locking, just rotate the dial ring 7 so that the outer arc wall surface of the lock plate 10 squeezes the protrusion 8, which can move the lock bar 2 out of the housing 1, so that the locking end 4 is inserted into the lock hole on the corresponding side. The lock is realized by adding the above structure so that the combination lock can be installed on a safe for use. Of course, if there is not enough space on the safe, we need to remove the locking rod 11 to prevent the lock tongue 12 from extending from the second through hole and hitting the safe, causing the lock bar 2 to be stuck. The structure of the dial ring 7 for inputting the correct password and the structure of the dial ring 7 for rotating the lock plate 10, including the structure in which the protrusion 8 of the lock bar 2 is opposite to and embedded with the unlocking notch 9 on the lock plate, are all existing technologies, so the specific structure is not described in detail.
[0028] As shown in the figure, a protrusion 13 is provided on the housing 1, and a positioning groove 14 is provided on the protrusion 13. The return spring 3 is located in the positioning groove 14, and one end of the guide plate 6 is fixed in the positioning groove 14. The positioning groove 14 can limit the return spring 3 to remain straight and not bend.
[0029] As shown in the figure, it also includes a locking rod 11 and a through hole 2 provided on the shell 1. The locking rod 11 is rotatably connected to the shell 1 and the lock bar 2, and the locking rod 11 can be rotated under the push of the lock bar 2 so that the lock tongue 12 on the locking rod 11 extends from the through hole 2. The principle of the above structure is that when the dial ring 7 enters the correct password, the protrusion 8 of the lock bar 2 will be opposite to the unlocking notch 9 on the lock plate 10, so that the lock bar 2 has space to move, the reset spring 3 can push the lock bar 2 to move, the protrusion 8 of the lock bar 2 will be embedded in the unlocking notch 9 on the lock plate 10, and the lock bar 2 will push the locking rod 11 to rotate so that the lock tongue 12 extends from the through hole 2, thereby unlocking; when locking, just rotate the dial ring 7 so that the outer arc wall of the lock plate 10 squeezes the protrusion 8, so that the lock bar 2 can move in the opposite direction, and the lock bar 2 will pull the locking rod 11 to rotate so that the lock tongue 12 retracts from the through hole 2 to achieve locking. The above structure is simple and does not require a trigger mechanism or trigger button to lock or unlock, thus saving time and cost for manufacturing and assembly. Of course, because the installation space on the door is relatively large, when locked, the locking end 4 extending from the second through hole will not collide with other objects and cause the lock bar 2 to get stuck. When used on a household door, the combination lock of the present application is not used alone, but as the mechanical part of the smart combination lock. Therefore, when the lock tongue 12 extends from the second through hole, it contacts the clutch mechanism of the smart combination lock to unlock, and when it retracts, it locks.
[0030] As shown in the figure, the housing 1 is provided with a first rotating shaft 15, the lock rod 11 is provided with a second rotating shaft 16 and a first axial hole 17 that cooperates with the first rotating shaft 15, and the lock bar 2 is provided with a second axial hole 18 that cooperates with the second rotating shaft 16. This structure enables the lock bar 2 to drive the lock rod 11 to rotate. As a further feature, the end of the lock rod 11 is bent to form a lock tongue 12. This integral structure of the lock tongue 12 and the lock rod 11 provides good strength and is easy to manufacture.
[0031] As shown in the figure, it also includes a cover plate (not shown in the figure), which is snapped together with the shell 1 and fixed by screws, thereby limiting the lock bar 2 from falling out, and the cover plate is provided with a semicircular limiting protrusion 13 that can limit the position of the lock bar 2. The semicircular limiting protrusion 13 contacts the lock bar 2 to prevent it from moving, with low friction, so that the lock bar 2 moves more smoothly.
[0032] The above is a detailed introduction to a multi-purpose rotary knob combination lock provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only intended to help understand the method and core idea of the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
