DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be apparently and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0027] As Figures 1-5 shown, a locking device comprises a connecting frame 1, a lock hook 3, a fixed hook 2 and a rotating shaft 4, the fixed hook 2 is fixedly installed on the connecting frame 1, the lock hook 3 is rotationally matched with the connecting frame 1 through the rotating shaft 4, the fixed hook 2 is provided with a lock slot 20 with an opening, the lock slot 20 is switched between opening and closing states through the rotation of the lock hook 3, a spring 6 is arranged between the fixed hook 2 or the connecting frame 1 and the lock hook 3, the spring 6 acts on the lock hook 3, so that the lock slot 20 always has a tendency to form a closed state.

[0028] The fixed hook 2 is provided with a first guide surface 21, the lock hook 3 has a first end and a second end located on both sides of the rotating shaft 4, the first end of the lock hook 3 is provided with a second guide surface 31, when the lock slot 20 is in a closed state, the first guide surface 21 and the second guide surface 31 form a guide groove, in the embodiment, the guide groove is "V" shaped.

[0029] The fixed hook 2 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 200 extending along the rotation trajectory of the locking hook 3, and the locking hook 3 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 300. The arc-shaped surface 200 and the arc-shaped groove 300 are fitted together. When the locking hook 3 rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft 4, the surfaces of the arc-shaped surface 200 and the arc-shaped groove 300 always remain in contact. Therefore, the arc-shaped surface 200 and the arc-shaped groove 300 cooperate to guide the locking hook 3 when it rotates.

[0030] The connecting frame 1 has a mounting groove 10. The fixing hook 2 and the locking hook 3 are both disposed in the mounting groove 10. At least one side surface of the locking hook 3 is in clearance fit with the inner side wall of the mounting groove 10. The fixing hook 2 is provided with a pad 5. The sum of the thickness of the pad 5 and the fixing hook 2 is greater than the thickness of the locking hook 3, so that there is a gap between the locking hook 3 and the side wall of the mounting groove 10, thereby making the locking hook 3 rotate more smoothly.

[0031] The second end of the locking hook 3 is provided with a protruding pressing part 32. By manually pressing the pressing part 32, the locking hook 3 is driven to swing, thereby switching the locking groove 20 from the closed state to the open state, i.e., the unlocking function. The second end of the locking hook 3 is provided with a pressing groove 30, and the pressing groove 30 is provided with several protrusions 34. The protrusions 34 increase the friction and prevent the fingers from slipping on the locking hook 3 when manually pressing.

[0032] The second end of the locking hook 3 is provided with a mounting hole 33 for installing a traction component. In this application, the traction component is a pull rope. By connecting a pull rope inside and outside the mounting hole 33, the unlocking function can be achieved by pulling the pull rope.

[0033] The fixing hook 2 is provided with a first connecting groove 22, the locking hook 3 is provided with a second connecting groove 35, and the spring 6 is installed in the first connecting groove 22 and the second connecting groove 35.

[0034] The connecting frame 1 includes two connecting plates 110, a plurality of first connecting members 11 and a plurality of second connecting members 12. The first connecting members 11 are used to install the connecting plates 110 onto other equipment that needs to install locking devices. The second connecting members 12 are used to fix the fixing hook 2 onto the connecting plates 110. The mounting groove 10 is formed between the two connecting plates 110. It should be noted that the first connecting members 11 and the second connecting members 12 are both bolts and nuts.

[0035] When locking is required: the locking lever 100 on the device to be locked is moved into the guide groove. By moving the locking lever 100 closer to the lock groove 20, the locking lever 100 contacts the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface. As the locking lever 100 continues to move, it pushes the locking hook 3 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 4, thereby switching the lock groove 20 from the closed state to the open state, allowing the locking lever 100 to enter the lock groove 20. When the locking lever 100 is fully inside the lock groove 20, the spring 6 pushes the locking hook 3 to reset, thereby switching the lock groove 20 from the open state to the closed state, thus achieving the locking function.

[0036] When unlocking is required: by manually pressing the pressing part 32, the locking hook 3 is driven to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 4, thereby switching the locking groove 20 from the closed state to the open state, so that the locking rod 100 can be removed from the locking groove 20, thereby realizing the unlocking function. When the hand is released, the locking hook 3 is reset by the action of the spring 6, so that the locking groove 20 switches from the open state to the closed state.

[0037] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
