Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of door lock technology, and in particular to a multi-point escape lock. Background Technology
[0002] Public places such as schools, hospitals, and office buildings have extremely high requirements for the security and ease of escape of door locks. Traditional door locks often only have one locking point, which is insufficient for anti-theft performance. In order to improve escape efficiency while taking into account anti-theft performance, multi-locking point escape locks have emerged. Multi-locking point escape locks achieve multi-point locking by adding a secondary lock component to the main lock, thereby enhancing the anti-theft performance of the door lock. At the same time, in an emergency, all locking points can be quickly unlocked through a unified operation, facilitating the rapid evacuation of personnel.
[0003] However, most existing multi-point escape locks are complex in structure, inconvenient to operate, and the linkage mechanism between the locks is not efficient enough. Often, it is necessary to operate the secondary lock separately while unlocking the main lock. This not only prolongs the escape time, but may also damage the lock due to improper operation, affecting the escape efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a multi-point escape lock that is simple in structure, easy to operate, and highly efficient in its linkage.
[0005] This utility model also proposes an escape door with the above-mentioned multi-point escape lock.
[0006] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a multi-point escape lock includes a main lock assembly and a secondary lock assembly. The main lock assembly includes a main bolt and a main lock housing. The main bolt is rotatably connected to the main lock housing and extends partially out of the main lock housing. The secondary lock assembly is connected above or below the main lock assembly. The secondary lock assembly includes a secondary lock housing, a secondary bolt, and a driven rod. The secondary bolt is rotatably connected to the secondary lock housing, and the driven rod is slidably connected to the secondary lock housing. The main lock housing is provided with a drive block, and the drive block is provided with a lever. The main lock housing is movably provided with a linkage block. The linkage block is connected to the driven rod through the drive rod. The linkage block abuts against the drive block. When the drive block rotates, the lever abuts against and drives the main bolt to rotate to retract the main lock housing. Simultaneously, the drive block abuts against and drives the linkage block to slide away from the side of the secondary lock assembly. The driven rod drives the secondary bolt to rotate to retract the secondary lock housing.
[0007] The multi-point escape lock according to this utility model embodiment has at least the following beneficial effects: When the drive block rotates, its lever abuts against and drives the main bolt to rotate, causing the main bolt to retract into the main lock housing, thereby unlocking the main lock point. Simultaneously, the drive block abuts against the linkage block, pushing the linkage block to slide away from the secondary lock assembly. The linkage block pulls the driven rod through the drive rod, which drives the secondary bolt to rotate, causing the secondary bolt to retract into the secondary lock housing, thereby unlocking the secondary lock point. It is understood that the multi-point design improves the anti-theft performance of the door lock; even if one lock point is damaged, the other lock points can still remain locked, increasing the difficulty of illegal intrusion. Furthermore, the multi-point escape lock integrates the unlocking actions of the main lock and the secondary lock into a single operation through a linkage structure, greatly simplifying the escape procedure, achieving efficient synchronous action of the main bolt and the secondary bolt, and significantly improving the ease of operation and reliability of the lock.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model discloses a multi-point escape lock, including a main lock assembly 100 and a secondary lock assembly 200. The main lock assembly 100 includes a main lock tongue 120 and a main lock housing 110. The main lock tongue 120 is rotatably connected to the main lock housing 110 and extends out of the main lock housing 110. A secondary lock assembly 200 is connected above or below the main lock assembly 100. The secondary lock assembly 200 includes a secondary lock housing 210, a secondary lock tongue 220, and a driven rod 300. The secondary lock tongue 220 is rotatably connected to the secondary lock housing 210, and the driven rod 300 is slidably connected to the secondary lock housing 210. The main lock housing 110 is provided with a drive block 130, and the drive block 130 is provided with a lever 131. The main lock housing 110 is movably provided with a linkage block 140, which is connected to the driven rod 300 through the drive rod. The linkage block 140 abuts against the drive block 130. When the drive block 130 rotates, the lever 131 abuts against and drives the main lock tongue 120 to rotate to retract the main lock housing 110. At the same time, the drive block 130 abuts against and drives the linkage block 140 to slide away from the side of the secondary lock assembly 200. The driven rod 300 drives the secondary lock tongue 220 to rotate to retract the secondary lock housing 210.
[0029] In a specific embodiment, the main lock assembly 100 includes a main lock housing 110 and a main lock bolt 120. The main lock bolt 120 is rotatably connected to the main lock housing 110 via a pivot 430, and partially extends out of the main lock housing 110 to achieve a locking function. A drive block 130 is provided inside the main lock housing 110, and a lever 131 is provided on the drive block 130. The drive block 130 is connected to an external operating mechanism for driving the rotation of the main lock bolt 120. A linkage block 140 is also movably disposed inside the main lock housing 110, and the linkage block 140 is connected to the driven lever 300 of the secondary lock assembly 200 via a drive rod. The secondary lock assembly 200 is connected above or below the main lock assembly 100 and includes a secondary lock housing 210, a secondary lock bolt 220, and a driven lever 300. The secondary bolt 220 is also rotatably connected to the interior of the secondary lock housing 210 via the pivot 430, while the driven rod 300 is slidably connected to the interior of the secondary lock housing 210 to transmit the driving force from the main lock assembly 100.
[0030] A linkage block 140 is also movably disposed within the main lock housing 110, and the linkage block 140 is connected to the driven rod 300 via a drive rod. In the normal locked state, the linkage block 140 abuts against the drive block 130. When an external operation causes the drive block 130 to rotate, the lever 131 first abuts against and drives the main bolt 120 to rotate, causing the main bolt 120 to retract into the main lock housing 110, thereby unlocking the main lock. Simultaneously, the rotation of the drive block 130 also abuts against and pushes the linkage block 140 to slide away from the secondary lock assembly 200. The sliding of the linkage block 140 is transmitted to the driven rod 300 via the drive rod, which in turn drives the secondary bolt 220 to rotate, causing the secondary bolt 220 to also retract into the secondary lock housing 210, thereby unlocking the secondary lock.
[0031] The linkage mechanism between the main lock assembly 100 and the secondary lock assembly 200 is as follows: When the drive block 130 rotates, its lever 131 abuts against and drives the main bolt 120 to rotate, causing the main bolt 120 to retract into the main lock housing 110, thereby unlocking the main lock point. Simultaneously, the drive block 130 abuts against the linkage block 140, pushing the linkage block 140 to slide away from the secondary lock assembly 200. The linkage block 140 pulls the driven lever 300 via the drive rod, which in turn drives the secondary bolt 220 to rotate, causing the secondary bolt 220 to retract into the secondary lock housing 210, thereby unlocking the secondary lock point.
[0032] Understandably, the multi-point locking design enhances the anti-theft performance of the door lock. Even if one locking point is damaged, the others remain locked, increasing the difficulty of unauthorized entry. Furthermore, the multi-point escape lock integrates the unlocking actions of the main lock and auxiliary lock into a single operation through a linkage structure, greatly simplifying the escape process. It achieves efficient synchronous movement of the main bolt 120 and the auxiliary bolt 220, significantly improving the ease of operation and reliability of the lock.
[0033] Reference Figure 1In some embodiments, two secondary lock components 200 are provided, symmetrically positioned above and below the main lock component 100. Specifically, a driven block 150 is movably disposed within the main lock housing 110. The driven block 150 and the linkage block 140 are connected via driven rods 300 and drive the two secondary lock components 200 to unlock. When the drive block 130 rotates, the linkage block 140 is pushed, causing one secondary lock component 200 to unlock. Simultaneously, the movement of the linkage block 140 causes the driven block 150 to move, which then drives the other secondary lock component 200 to unlock via the driven rods 300. This not only enhances the overall stability of the door lock but also enables effective locking in multiple directions, further improving security. Through the cooperation of the driven block 150 and the linkage block 140, the synchronous unlocking of the two secondary lock components 200 is achieved, simplifying the transmission structure and allowing both secondary lock components 200 to be unlocked simultaneously in a single operation, thus improving escape efficiency.
[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A linkage gear 160 is installed inside the main lock housing 110, positioned between the linkage block 140 and the driven block 150. The linkage block 140 and driven block 150 mesh with the linkage gear 160 via linkage teeth 141 and driven teeth 151, respectively. When the drive block 130 moves the linkage block 140, the linkage gear 160 rotates and moves the driven block 150, thereby driving the two secondary lock assemblies 200 to unlock synchronously via the driven rod 300. To ensure the correct movement direction of the linkage block 140 and driven block 150, a guide sidewall 180 is installed inside the main lock housing 110, abutting against the inner sidewalls on both sides of the main lock housing 110 to guide the movement direction of the linkage block 140 and driven block 150. Through the transmission of the linkage gear 160, the synchronous movement of the linkage block 140 and driven block 150 is achieved, thus enabling the synchronous unlocking of the two secondary lock assemblies 200. The guide sidewall 180 ensures the accurate movement direction of the linkage block 140 and the driven block 150, improving the accuracy and stability of the transmission.
[0035] Furthermore, a limiting rod 170 is provided inside the main lock housing 110, located near the two driven rods 300. When the driven rods 300 move, they abut against the limiting rod 170, limiting their range of motion and preventing excessive movement that could damage the mechanism. This invention also includes a reset boss 152 on the driven block 150, with a reset spring 171 connecting the reset boss 152 and the limiting rod 170. When the driven block 150 is pushed, the reset spring 171 is compressed; when the external driving force disappears, the reset spring 171 releases energy and resets the driven block 150 and the secondary latch 220. The reset spring 171 allows the driven block 150 and the secondary latch 220 to automatically reset after unlocking, improving the reliability and durability of the lock. Manual reset of the secondary latch 220 is unnecessary, simplifying the operation.
[0036] Reference Figure 4 A secondary locking lever 221 is provided at the end of the secondary latch 220 away from the secondary lock housing 210, and the secondary locking lever 221 is connected to the driven lever 300. When the driven lever 300 moves toward the main lock housing 110, the secondary locking lever 221 moves toward the interior of the secondary lock housing 210, thereby causing the secondary latch 220 to retract. The movement of the driven lever 300 is transmitted to the secondary latch 220 through the secondary locking lever 221, causing it to rotate and retract into the secondary lock housing 210, thus unlocking. Further, the secondary latch 220 is connected to a secondary locking shaft 222, which is rotatably connected to the secondary lock housing 210. A return torsion spring 223 is fitted on the secondary locking shaft 222, which is used to drive the secondary latch 220 to reset after the unlocking operation is completed. The torque of the return torsion spring 223 causes the secondary latch 220 to automatically return to the extended state after unlocking, ensuring the reliability of the lock. Optionally, the main latch 120 may be equipped with a reset structure for the secondary latch 220 simultaneously.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 The main lock assembly 100 is connected to an actuating assembly 400. The actuating assembly 400 includes a pressure rod 420 and a rocker arm 410. One end of the rocker arm 410 is rotatably connected to the main lock housing 110 and connected to the drive block 130 via a pivot 430. The rocker arm 410 is positioned at an upward angle. One end of the pressure rod 420 is connected to the rocker arm 410, and the other end is hinged to the door panel. When the pressure rod 420 is subjected to external force, the rocker arm 410 rotates, causing the drive block 130 to rotate, which in turn drives the main bolt 120 and the secondary bolt 220 to move synchronously. The actuating assembly 400 enables external unlocking of the door lock, allowing users to unlock the lock with a simple pressing action. This simplifies the unlocking process and improves escape efficiency, especially enabling rapid evacuation of personnel in emergencies.
