TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of door locks, in particular to a mute door lock. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a common hardware, door locks are widely used in homes, offices and other scenarios that require privacy protection. With the improvement of people's living standards and the progress of technology, the design of door locks not only focuses on safety, but also gradually develops towards comfort and mute performance. Modern door locks are usually composed of a lock body, a lock tongue, a transmission assembly, a handle and a lock box, which work together to achieve the basic functions of the door lock. However, in practical applications, how to balance the functionality and user experience of the door lock has become the focus of the industry.
[0003] Currently, traditional door locks usually adopt a double-handle design, that is, a handle is arranged on each side of the lock body and the lock tongue is driven to move by the transmission assembly. Specifically, this structure relies on a through hole passing through the lock body to install the handle and transmits power through the internal transmission assembly to realize the extension and retraction movement of the lock tongue.
[0004] Since the two handles are arranged opposite to each other and connected through the through hole, when the user operates the handle on the outside to drive the transmission assembly and then drive the lock tongue to move, the mechanical noise generated will directly pass into the room through the through hole, significantly reducing the user's experience, especially in a quiet environment, which needs to be further improved.
