Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hardware lock technology, specifically a flip-type latch assembly and a door lock. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, single-tongue lock bodies on the market are usually used in conjunction with rotary handles. Opening and closing the door is achieved by rotating the handle to control the linear retraction of the latch of the single-tongue lock body. This structure involves two actions: first, the user rotates the handle to retract the latch; second, after the latch is fully retracted into the door frame, the door opens. For example, the utility model patent with publication number CN221646650U, entitled "Motor-Driven Intelligent Door Lock," describes a process where "the user rotates the handle installed on the inner core of the handle lever, causing the latch lever, which rotates synchronously with the handle, to rotate synchronously. The latch lever then uses its push arm to push the latch assembly back into the housing from outside the housing, thereby achieving temporary unlocking." While these two actions can achieve normal door opening, simplifying the opening process significantly improves the user experience. Utility Model Content

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0027] See Figure 1 This embodiment discloses a flip-type tongue assembly, including a tongue 1, a mounting panel 2 for mounting the tongue 1, and two oppositely arranged mounting housings 3 respectively connected to the mounting panel 2. A tongue drive mechanism for cooperating with the tongue 1 to flip is connected through the mounting housings 3.
[0028] In this embodiment, two mounting housings 3 are connected within the door frame, and the two together form a mounting cavity for mounting the latch drive mechanism. Each of the two mounting housings 3 has a mounting opening 31 for engaging with the handle. The handle connects to the latch drive mechanism within the mounting cavity through the mounting opening 31 to drive the latch drive mechanism. In this embodiment, the mounting panel 2 and the mounting housings 3 are common accessories in door lock structures, and controlling the movement of the latch drive mechanism by pushing and pulling the handle is also prior art in this field. For example, this engagement structure is disclosed in utility model patent publication number CN222414394U, and its structure will not be described in detail here.
[0029] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 The flip-type latch assembly also includes a first mounting base 4 and a second mounting base 5 movably mounted inside the mounting housing 3. The mounting housing 3 serves as a mounting support for the first mounting base 4 and the second mounting base 5, and the first mounting base 4 and the second mounting base 5 are the mounting bases for the latch 1 and the latch drive mechanism. In this embodiment, the first mounting base 4 and the second mounting base 5 can move along the length of the mounting cavity, and a second spring 6 is connected between the first mounting base 4 and the mounting housing 3. The second spring 6 is located at the end away from the latch 1. Preferably, to ensure quiet operation and improve the user experience, in this embodiment, the outer surfaces of the first mounting base 4 and the second mounting base 5 are provided with multiple protrusions 7 that contact the mounting housing 3. By setting these protrusions 7, the contact area between the first mounting base 4, the second mounting base 5, and the mounting housing 3 can be reduced, reducing friction from relative movement and achieving a quiet operation.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the first mounting base plate 4 is generally constructed as a semi-enclosed structure with one open side. One end of the first mounting base plate 4 is connected to the mounting panel 2. The mounting end of the tongue 1 extends into the mounting panel 2, and the tongue 1 is connected to a first fixing shaft 8 along the height direction of the mounting panel 2. The tongue 1 is rotatably connected to the first mounting base plate 4 through the first fixing shaft 8. Preferably, to ensure the stability of the tongue 1, the tongue 1 is also connected to a second fixing shaft 9 along the height direction of the mounting panel 2. The second fixing shaft 9 and the first fixing shaft 8 are arranged opposite to each other. Correspondingly, the first mounting base plate 4 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 10 that matches the second fixing shaft 9 and its movement trajectory.
[0031] The second mounting substrate 5 is constructed as a plate-like structure, which is inserted into the opening of the first mounting substrate 4 and can move synchronously with the first mounting substrate 4.
[0032] See Figure 4 The inclined tongue drive mechanism includes an upper lever plate 11 and a lower lever plate 12 arranged opposite each other. The upper lever plate 11 and the lower lever plate 12 are movably disposed between a first mounting base plate 4 and a second mounting base plate 5. Guide posts 13 are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the upper lever plate 11 and the lower lever plate 12. The first mounting base plate 4 and the second mounting base plate 5 are respectively provided with guide grooves 14 that are adapted to the guide posts 13. The cooperation between the guide posts 13 and the guide grooves 14 can provide support for the upper lever plate 11 and the lower lever plate 12, and at the same time allow the upper lever plate 11 and the lower lever plate 12 to move up and down. It is understood that the first mounting base plate 4 and the second mounting base plate 5 are also provided with mounting openings that cooperate with the handle.
[0033] The upper shift plate 11 has a movable follower component 15 connected to its end facing the inclined tongue 1. The movement of the upper shift plate 11 can drive the follower component 15 to move. The follower component 15 can abut against or disengage from the inclined tongue 1, thereby determining the rotation space of the inclined tongue 1. The lower shift plate 12 has a connecting rod assembly 16 connected to its end facing the inclined tongue 1. The connecting rod assembly 16 abuts against the upper shift plate 11. The movement of the lower shift plate 12 can drive the upper shift plate 11 to move through the connecting rod assembly 16, thereby controlling the movement of the follower component 15.
[0034] In this embodiment, the upper lever 11 moves upward or the lower lever 12 moves downward by pushing or pulling the handle.
[0035] Combination Figure 6 , Figure 7 The follower component 15 further includes a blocking part 151 that abuts against the oblique tongue 1. The blocking part 151 includes a blocking block 1511 and a blocking post 1512 fixed to one end of the blocking block 1511. The blocking post 1512 is disposed at the end of the blocking block 1511 away from the oblique tongue 1. A sliding post 1513 is provided on the side of the blocking block 1511. Correspondingly, the first mounting base plate 4 is provided with a sliding groove along the length direction that cooperates with the sliding post 1513.
[0036] The follower assembly 15 also includes a fixing seat 152 that mates with the stop post 1512, in combination with Figure 8 The fixing base 152 is connected between the first mounting base 4 and the second mounting base 5 via the ears 1521 at both ends. The fixing base 152 has a through hole 1522 adapted to the blocking post 1512, and the through hole 1522 is arranged along the length direction of the mounting cavity. The blocking post 1512 is inserted into the through hole 1522, and the blocking post 1512 has a first insertion position and a second insertion position in the through hole 1522. The first insertion position and the second insertion position are assisted by the insertion plate 153 inserted into the fixing base 152. Specifically, the mounting base 152 is provided with insertion slots 1523 distributed along the width direction of the mounting cavity. These insertion slots 1523 cut off the through hole 1522. The follower assembly 15 further includes an insertion plate 153 disposed within the insertion slots 1523. The insertion plate 153 can move up and down relative to the insertion slots 1523. When the insertion plate 153 sinks into the insertion slots 1523, it can cut off the through hole 1522 and block the blocking post 1512 to the first insertion position. When the insertion plate 153 moves upward, it can release the through hole 1522 cutting-off state, allowing the blocking post 1512 to continue to penetrate to the second insertion position. Furthermore, the blocking post 1512 is sleeved with a first spring 156, one end of which is connected to the mounting base 152.
[0037] See you again Figure 6 The plug plate 153 is connected to the upper lever plate 11 at one end facing the inclined tongue 1. The upper lever plate 11 and the plug plate 153 move synchronously. The plug plate 153 is also connected to a torsion spring 154. The other end of the torsion spring 154 is connected to the top of the first mounting base plate 4, and the torsion spring 154 is connected by a first mounting post 155 connected between the first mounting base plate 4 and the second mounting base plate 5.
[0038] The linkage assembly 16 includes a figure-eight shaped linkage 161 and a linkage block 162 hinged to one end thereto. The linkage block 162 is hinged to a second mounting post 163 connecting the first mounting base plate 4 and the second mounting base plate 5. The other end of the linkage block 162 abuts against the bottom of the upper shift plate 11, and the other end of the figure-eight shaped linkage 161 is rotatably connected to the guide post 13 of the lower shift plate 12. When the lower shift plate 12 moves downward, it drives the corresponding end of the linkage block 162 downward, and the other end of the linkage block 162 pushes the upper shift plate 11 upward.
[0039] In practical application, when the handle is pulled, the upper lever plate 11 moves upward, pulling the plug plate 153 upward while simultaneously compressing the torsion spring 154. At the same time, the door frame pushes the latch 1 to rotate 45° and press it towards the blocking part 151. The blocking part 151 inserts into the second insertion position of the fixing seat 152, causing the first spring 156 to compress and deform. The first mounting base 4 and the second mounting base 5 slide inward along the length direction of the mounting cavity simultaneously, compressing the second spring 6, thus opening the door. When the force of pulling the handle is released, under the action of the second spring 6, the first mounting base 4, the second mounting base 5, and the latch 1 return to their original positions. Under the action of the first spring 156, the blocking part 151 returns to its original position. Under the action of the torsion spring 154, the plug plate 153 and the upper lever plate 11 return to their original positions.
[0040] Similarly, when the handle is pressed, the lower lever 12 moves downward, causing the upper lever 11 to move upward, repeating the above actions to open the door.
[0041] This embodiment adopts a flip-type tongue 1 structure in conjunction with a follower component 15 connected to the upper lever 11 and a linkage component 16 connected to the lower lever 12, which can combine the traditional door opening process into one. Pulling the handle and retracting the tongue 1 are carried out simultaneously, making the door opening and closing method simpler and more novel, thereby effectively improving the user experience.
