[0033] In this embodiment, the first locking rod 8 is located above the second locking rod 7 and is arranged horizontally. The first locking rod 8 has a first rack portion 11 integrally formed on it, and the second locking rod 7 has a second rack portion 9 integrally formed on it. The teeth of the first rack portion 11 and the teeth of the second rack portion 9 are arranged opposite to each other. The gear 10 is rotatably mounted on the cover 2 via a shaft. The first rack portion 11 and the second rack portion 9 are located on both sides of the gear 10, and both the first rack portion 11 and the second rack portion 9 mesh with the gear 10.
[0034] Combination Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the left end of the first locking rod 8 and the right end of the second locking rod 7 are both fixed (e.g., by screws) and equipped with a locking tongue 6, which, in conjunction with... Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the first locking rod 8 and the top of the second locking rod 7 are both integrally formed with spring connecting parts. An elastic element 16 for extending the latch 6 is connected between the two spring connecting parts. In this embodiment, the elastic element 16 is a tension spring, with both ends hooked onto the spring connecting parts. Thus, under the pulling action of the elastic element 16, the latch 6 extends from the side of the inner compartment 5 (e.g., ...). Figure 3 (As shown).
[0035] Combination Figure 5 As shown, the top of the first locking bar 8 is integrally provided with a wedge-shaped portion 12, the bottom end of the wedge-shaped portion 12 is the large end, and the top end of the wedge-shaped portion 12 is the small end. The left side of the wedge-shaped portion 12 in the figure has an inclined bevel, facing the direction of the locking tongue 6 of the first locking bar 8. The side of the wedge-shaped portion 12 has a groove, in which a reinforcing rib is integrally formed, located on the back side of the bevel. Combined with...
