Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lockset, especially to a magnetic lock cylinder. BACKGROUND

[0002] The magnetic lock cylinder is a common door lock structure, which realizes the extension of the lock tongue and the cooperation of the door frame lock box through magnetic attraction, and realizes the retraction of the lock tongue through the rotation of the dial, and completes the unlocking. In the existing design of the magnetic lock cylinder, such as the scheme disclosed in Chinese patent CN223018365U, the transmission structure is usually that the dial directly drives the lock frame to slide. Specifically, the dial piece on the dial extends into the long slot of the lock frame (usually composed of a reset frame and a sliding frame), and when the dial is rotated, the dial piece directly pushes or pulls the entire lock frame to move backward to realize the retraction of the lock tongue.

[0003] This direct driving mode of "dial-lock frame" has obvious inherent defects. First of all, in order to bear and transmit the direct driving force of the dial, and set up the corresponding matching structure (such as the long slot), the lock frame must have enough structural strength and volume, which leads to the overall structure being relatively large and heavy. This not only increases the space occupation inside the lock cylinder, but also makes the mass inertia of the lock frame in the movement process larger.

[0004] Secondly, the larger volume and mass of the lock frame directly lead to the increase of friction resistance and movement inertia when it moves. This disadvantage is particularly prominent in the magnetic attraction process: when the external magnet attracts the lock tongue to extend through magnetic force, it needs to overcome greater resistance. Therefore, in order to ensure that the lock tongue can be reliably attracted out, a magnet with stronger magnetic force must be selected, which undoubtedly increases the material cost and power consumption of the product, and is limited in the application scene of miniaturization and low power consumption.

[0005] In addition, since it is directly driven, the dial needs to be rotated by a large angle to provide enough stroke to pull the entire lock frame, which limits the operation feel and the structure design of the dial itself. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0025] By setting knob 5 consisting of short swing arm 7 and long swing arm 8, a lever transmission system is formed.When tumblers 3 rotates, its small amplitude rotation is amplified via knob 5, and long swing arm 8 is directly used as effective space compensation component to drive lock frame 2 and lock tongue to retract.This design separates the driving function from lock frame 2, so that lock frame 2 does not need to be designed too long and large to cooperate with tumblers 3, its volume and weight are significantly reduced, so that the compactness of lock cylinder internal structure is realized, and the movement resistance when lock tongue is sucked out is reduced, the structure makes the rotation amplitude of tumblers 3 required to drive lock tongue to retract significantly reduced, and the operation speed and experience are improved.

[0026] Lock body 1 is fixed with a positioning shaft 11, the positioning shaft 11 is provided in the hinging portion 6 of the knob 5;The torsion spring 9 is sleeved on the positioning shaft 11, and the two free ends 26 thereof are elastically abutted against the inner wall of the lock body 1 and the hinging portion 6 of the knob 5 respectively, for providing the short swing arm 7 with elastic force always biased towards the knob 3 driving part 10.

[0027] The lock body 1 is provided with a limiting groove 12, the dial 3 is partially accommodated in the limiting groove 12 and can rotate along the limiting groove 12; the side wall of the limiting groove 12 is provided with a first limiting surface 13 and a second limiting surface 14, which are respectively used for limiting the starting position and the ending position of the dial 3 on the rotating path. In the application, the rotating angle of the dial 3 is preferably in the range of 5° to 30°, and the rotating angle is specifically designed as 10°, 11° or 15°, etc., which is not limited according to the actual situation.
