[0030] This utility model proposes a locking device.

[0031] In this embodiment of the utility model, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the locking device includes a first housing 1, a first locking tongue 2, a button 3, a first top spring 4, and an unlocking component.

[0032] The first latch 2 is movably disposed on the first housing 1 and can move between a first position and a second position relative to the first housing 1. The button 3 is movably disposed on the first housing 1 above the first latch 2. The button 3 is linked with the first latch 2 and can perform vertical reciprocating motion relative to the first housing 1. While moving downward, the button 3 can drive the first latch 2 to move towards the second position. The first top spring 4 is disposed on the first housing 1 and is used to apply a spring force to the first latch 2 to move towards the first position. While the first latch 2 moves towards the first position, it drives the button 3 to move upward. The unlocking member is movably disposed on the rear side of the first housing 1 and can perform vertical reciprocating motion relative to the first housing 1 so that the front end of the unlocking member is opposite to or offset from the rear wall of the first latch 2. When opposite, it can restrict the first latch 2 from moving towards the second position. When offset, it can release the restriction on the first latch 2.

[0033] Specifically, the rear wall of the first locking tongue 2 is provided with a insertion position 21 for the front end of the unlocking member to be inserted. The unlocking member can move relative to the first housing 1 between the front end being opposite to the rear wall of the first locking tongue 2 and opposite to the insertion position 21.

[0034] Specifically, the interior of the first housing 1 is divided by a partition to form a first space 100 with an open front side and a second space 200 with an open rear side. The first locking tongue 2 and the unlocking member are respectively disposed in the first space 100 and the second space 200. The partition is partially open to form a vertically extending guide groove 11. The front end of the unlocking member passes through the guide groove 11 and enters the first space 100. The two ends of the first top spring 4 elastically abut against the partition and the first locking tongue 2 respectively.

[0035] Specifically, the bottom wall of the first space 100 is provided with a first limiting hole 101, and the bottom of the first locking tongue 2 is provided with a first limiting hook 22 that extends into the first limiting hole 101. The first limiting hook 22 can move in the first limiting hole 101 with the movement of the first locking tongue 2 to prevent the first locking tongue 2 from being over-displaced.

[0036] Specifically, the second space 200 is provided with a connecting frame 12, and the unlocking component includes a driving block and a plug 52 for passing through the guide groove 11. The driving block is movably engaged with the side of the connecting frame 12 facing the opening of the second space 200, and the plug 52 is movably engaged with the side of the connecting component facing the guide groove 11. A screw connects the plug 52 and the driving block, so that the driving block moves up and down along the connecting frame 12 while driving the plug 52 to a position that is offset from or opposite to the rear wall of the first locking tongue 2.

[0037] Specifically, the connecting seat is locked to the first housing 1 by means of rivets.

[0038] Specifically, in one embodiment, a spring is also provided, which is used to apply a spring force to the unlocking member to move in a downward direction, thereby realizing the automatic reset of the unlocking member.

[0039] Specifically, the connector is provided with a limiting part 13 at the position above the drive block to limit the drive block from rising excessively.

[0040] Specifically, the outer wall of the drive block is provided with a protrusion 53, which makes it easy for the finger to push the drive block.

[0041] Specifically, it also includes a rope 6, a second housing 7, and a second locking tongue 8. The second locking tongue 8 is movably disposed on the second housing 7 and can reciprocate vertically relative to the second housing 7. The upper and lower ends of the rope 6 are respectively connected to the unlocking component and the second locking tongue 8. A second top spring 9 is also provided, which is used to apply a spring force to the second locking tongue 8 in the downward direction.

[0042] Specifically, there are two second top springs 9.

[0043] Specifically, the first housing 1 has a third space 300 above the first latch 2. The button 3 is movably mounted in the third space 300. The bottom of the button 3 has an insert 31 extending towards the first latch 2. The first latch 2 has a slot 32 into which the insert 31 can be inserted. The bottom wall of the slot 32 is inclined. When the button 3 moves downward, the lower end of the insert 31 cooperates with the bottom wall of the slot 32 to drive the first latch 2 to move towards the second position.

[0044] Specifically, the first housing 1 is movably provided with a surrounding member 33, and the side wall of the surrounding member 33 is provided with the slot 32. The first locking tongue 2 is movably fitted inside the surrounding member 33 and can move relative to the surrounding member 33 between a position where the front end is exposed on the front side of the surrounding member 33 and a position where the front end is retracted into the surrounding member 33.

[0045] Specifically, the first position is inside the first lock groove, and the second position is outside the first lock groove. When the button 3 is pressed, the driving surrounding member 33 drives the first locking tongue 2 to move out of the first lock groove, and at the same time compresses the first top spring 4. When the button 3 is released, the first top spring 4 releases its elastic force, causing the first locking tongue 2 to move to the position where its front end is exposed on the front side of the surrounding member 33 and pushes the surrounding member 33 to continue moving, so that the button 3 is driven to rise through the cooperation between the bottom wall of the slot 32 and the lower end of the insert 31, thereby realizing the automatic reset of the button 3 and the surrounding member 33.

[0046] Understandably, the front end of the first locking tongue 2, exposed on the front side of the surrounding member 33, will be restricted from continuing to move, thereby allowing the surrounding member 33 to move.

[0047] Specifically, the first limiting hook 22 is located on the bottom wall of the surrounding member 33.

[0048] Specifically, the front and rear walls of the third space 300 are provided with second limiting holes 301, and the side of the button 3 near the second limiting hole 301 is provided with a second limiting hook 34 that extends into the second limiting hole 301. The second limiting hook 34 can move within the second limiting hole 301 as the button 3 moves.

[0049] This utility model also proposes a gate, including a locking device. For the specific structure of the locking device, please refer to the above embodiments. Since this gate adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned locking device embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned locking device, which will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Specifically, the door frame can directly refer to existing technology, and the first lock groove for cooperating with the first lock tongue 2 can be directly set at the installation location, such as on the wall. Of course, other implementation methods can also be adopted, such as in this embodiment:

[0051] The gate includes a first gate body 01 and a second gate body 02, and is provided with a first connecting mechanism 03 and a second connecting mechanism 04. The first gate body 01 and the second gate body 02 are movably coupled and can be displaced in overlapping and staggered directions to extend or shorten the gate to accommodate different widths of the installation position. The first connecting mechanism 03 and the second connecting mechanism 04 are mirror images of each other and can be detachably fixed to the installation position via a quick-release structure. The first and second housings are vertically spaced on one side of the gate, and the other side of the gate is pivotally connected to the second connecting mechanism 04 to allow for swinging opening or closing. The first connecting mechanism 03 has a first locking groove corresponding to the position of the first locking tongue 2, and a second locking groove corresponding to the position below the second locking tongue. When the gate swings until the first locking tongue 2 enters the first locking groove, the gate is locked, and simultaneously the second locking tongue enters the second locking groove.

[0052] Furthermore, other structural details regarding the gate can be found in existing technologies, and their specific structural principles will not be elaborated upon here.

[0053] This utility model mainly includes a door frame and a locking device installed on the door frame. The locking device mainly includes a first housing, a first latch, a button, a first top spring, and an unlocking component. The first latch is movably mounted on the first housing and can move between a first position and a second position. The top spring applies a spring force to the first latch, causing it to move towards the first position. The button is movably located above the first latch and can perform vertical reciprocating motion. When moving downwards, it can drive the first latch towards the second position through a linkage mechanism. The unlocking component is movably located on the first housing and can move between positions opposite and offset from the rear wall of the first latch. During unlocking, the unlocking component must first be driven to a position offset from the rear wall of the first latch, and then the button is pressed to drive the first latch towards the second position (i.e., the unlocking direction) to complete the unlocking operation. Compared with traditional methods, this utility model requires multiple steps for unlocking, effectively increasing the difficulty for children to learn the unlocking operation independently, preventing the security door from being easily unlocked, and thus improving the protective effect.

[0054] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
