Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hardware accessories, and in particular to a lock accessory, such as a handle panel assembly and a lock cylinder panel assembly. Background Technology
[0002] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN205976741U, published on February 22, 2017, discloses a split lock, including a lock body, at least two fasteners, a handle assembly, and a lock cylinder assembly. The lock body is embedded in a door panel. The fasteners include fastening posts and screws. The end of the fastening post has an internally threaded hole along its axial direction. The fastening post passes through the lock body, and the screw can engage with the internally threaded hole. The handle assembly includes a handle, an outer handle retaining ring (handle outer cover), and an inner handle retaining ring (handle inner cover). The lock cylinder assembly includes an outer lock cylinder retaining ring (lock cylinder outer cover) and an inner lock cylinder retaining ring (lock cylinder inner cover). The retaining rings in this structure are generally machined from sheet metal, and their edges are relatively sharp. Taking handle installation as an example, during installation, the outer handle retaining ring needs to be moved towards the handle and separated from the inner handle retaining ring by a certain distance. Then, the screw is used to fix the inner handle retaining ring to the door body. Finally, the outer handle retaining ring is placed over the inner handle retaining ring.
[0003] In addition, the above structure has the following shortcomings:
[0004] 1. The diameter of the opening at the center of the outer retaining ring of the handle needs to be larger than the diameter at the base of the handle so that the outer retaining ring can move towards the handle. In addition, the outer retaining ring of the handle needs to have sufficient distance from the inner retaining ring of the handle so that the connector and the tool for turning the connector can be inserted. Therefore, this imposes great limitations on the design of the handle and the outer retaining ring of the handle.
[0005] 2. In addition to the shortcomings of point 1 above, there is less space for tool operation. Furthermore, the connectors are generally distributed on the left and right sides of the end face of the inner retaining ring of the handle, but this position is blocked by the handle. The installer needs to press down the handle with one hand and use the tool to work with the connector with the other hand. Moreover, the handle is in a loose state before installation, and the front and back handles need to be aligned. All of these factors combined make the installation very difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive.
[0006] 3. The inner retaining rings of the handle and the inner retaining rings of the lock cylinder are cap-shaped. After installation, their sharp cap edges will cause obvious indentations / damage to the door panel (especially wooden door panels).
[0007] 4. After the inner retaining ring of the handle is installed, the outer retaining ring of the handle needs to be re-aligned and fastened to the inner retaining ring. If the inner retaining ring is installed too tightly, it will not be easy to fasten to the outer retaining ring of the handle. However, if it is not installed tightly, the handle will be loose and affect its use. Moreover, if the inner retaining ring is installed too tightly, in addition to deeper indentations, tools will be required to pry it open after the connecting parts are removed during disassembly and reassembly, causing secondary damage to the door panel.
[0008] 5. The connection holes of the inner retaining ring of the handle are limited by the handle washer, positioning plate, spring and other parts on the base. Therefore, the center distance between the two connection holes is relatively large. In some cases where the distance between the two clearance holes on the lock body is small, it is not suitable for the connecting parts of the inner retaining ring of the handle to pass through. Therefore, the inner retaining ring of the handle can only be fixed to the door body by wood screws. At the same time, the lock body has no support and is prone to sagging, which affects the use.
[0009] 6. In addition, some lock manufacturers, in order to save costs, only provide one handle retaining ring or lock cylinder retaining ring on the inner and outer sides of the corresponding door. The inner surface of the retaining ring on the outer (front) side of the door has a threaded sleeve, and the surface of the retaining ring on the inner (rear) side of the door has a connecting hole. A long screw is passed through the connecting hole and connected to the threaded sleeve to achieve the pull-and-fixture of the front and rear retaining rings. The inner screw head of this structure is exposed, which affects the aesthetics. At the same time, the connecting holes are distributed on the left and right, and one of the screw holes is still blocked by the handle. During installation, the handle must be pressed down to avoid the connecting hole before installation can be performed, which is also troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0023] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0024] (1) In the lock fitting of this utility model, the sheet metal cover is fixed to the door body (or other lock installation carrier) by the bottom buckle cover plate. The end plate of the bottom buckle cover plate abuts against the door body, with a large contact area, so as not to damage the door body. Moreover, during installation, the sheet metal cover can be separated from the bottom buckle cover plate, which does not cause obstacles to the installation of the bottom buckle cover plate, making the installation more convenient.
[0025] (2) The lock fitting of this utility model can be used with the handle. The handle is connected to the sheet metal cover through the reset rotation component (whether it is a single-layer cover or a double-layer cover). When installing the handle, the handle does not need to be separated from the sheet metal cover. After the installer installs the bottom buckle cover on both sides of the door, the handle is installed and the sheet metal cover covers the bottom buckle cover and is directly and / or indirectly fixed to the side plate of the bottom buckle cover.

[0026] (3) The sheet metal cover of the lock fitting of this utility model can also be used as a sheet metal cover for the lock cylinder of a split lock by changing the shape of its through hole.
[0027] (4) In the lock fittings of this utility model, the sheet metal cover is generally divided into two sets, front and back. The two sets of sheet metal covers are installed on the outer and inner sides of the door respectively. The two sets of sheet metal covers are equipped with bottom buckle covers. The two sets of bottom buckle covers can be connected by pull or connected to the door by wood screws respectively; or, the inner side is equipped with a bottom buckle cover, and the outer side does not need to be equipped. A screw sleeve is directly set on the inner end face of the sheet metal cover. The inner bottom buckle cover is connected to the screw sleeve by screws, thereby fixing the sheet metal cover (and other accessories on the cover, such as handles) on the outside of the door. Finally, the inner cover is installed on the inner side of the door and fixed with the inner bottom buckle cover, thus completing the installation of the corresponding front and back sets of covers (and other accessories on the cover).
[0028] (5) The bottom cover plate of this utility model is separate from the reset and rotation assembly of the handle. Therefore, the position of the connecting hole or connector on the bottom cover plate is more flexible. The connecting hole or connector can be closer to the center of the bottom cover plate to suit more lock body needs. In particular, some lock bodies have anti-fall holes that pass through both sides of them. When the anti-fall holes are close to the pin position on the lock body, the connector of the bottom cover plate in this structure can meet the anti-fall hole requirements of the lock body. The connector can pass through the anti-fall hole while connecting with the bottom cover plate, thus reinforcing the lock body. Attached Figure Description

[0063] Combination Figure 4 As shown, the outer end of the sheet metal cover C is provided with a handle 3, and the handle 3 is rotatably connected to the sheet metal cover C through a reset rotation assembly 4.
[0064] The reset rotation assembly includes a rotor 41, a reset torsion spring 45, a washer 44, and a retaining ring 43. Both the outer cover 6 and the inner cover 7 have through holes 101 facing each other. The rotor 41 rotates with the through holes 101, and its outer end is connected to the handle 3. The inner end face of the inner cover 7 has a stop portion 105. The reset torsion spring 45, washer 44, and retaining ring 43 are disposed outside the inner end of the rotor 41. The washer 44 is drive-connected to the rotor 41 and has a lever 442. The reset torsion spring 45 has a retaining foot that abuts against the stop portion 105 and the lever 442. The retaining ring 43 engages with the outer periphery of the rotor 41. The reset torsion spring 45 and washer 44 are confined between the retaining ring 43 and the inner end face of the inner cover 7. The rotor 41 has a drive hole with slots on both sides. The washer 44 has a central hole with a claw 441 inside, which engages with the slots on the rotor 41 to achieve transmission. The transmission hole is a square hole, used for insertion and transmission with square shaft 42 (transmission shaft).
[0065] The rotor 41 has a threaded hole on the lower side of its outer end, and the handle 3 has a sleeve hole at its root. The sleeve hole is fitted onto the outside of the rotor 41. The handle 3 has a through hole 31 on the lower side of the sleeve hole, and a locking screw 32 is provided in the through hole 31 to connect with the threaded hole of the rotor 41.
[0066] The inner end face of the inner cover 7 is provided with a baffle 104 corresponding to the inner end of the flanged screw hole. When the bottom cover plate 1 is engaged with the inner cover 7, the top abutment 14 of the bottom cover plate 1 is located between the flanged screw hole and the baffle 104. The nut screw 2 is a small part that is easy to lose. During transportation, the nut screw 2 can be connected to the screw hole 103 and abut against the baffle 104 to prevent it from loosening.
[0067] The aforementioned bottom cover plate 1 can be designed as follows: Figure 2 As shown, its connecting hole can be replaced with connector 17.
[0068] Combination Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the sheet metal cover is provided in two sets, namely the front cover and the rear cover. During installation, the front cover and the rear cover are located on the front and rear sides of the door panel, respectively.
[0069] The front cover and the rear cover are respectively equipped with a front bottom latch plate A and a rear bottom latch plate B. The front bottom latch plate A and the rear bottom latch plate B are connected by a fastener, or the front bottom latch plate A and the rear bottom latch plate B are respectively connected to the mounting carrier (door panel) by another fastener (such as wood screws); in this embodiment, the front bottom latch plate A and the rear bottom latch plate B are connected by a fastener.
[0070] The fasteners include the connector 17, the threaded sleeve 18, and the bolt 19. The connector 17 is a screw rod set on the outer end face of the end plate 11 of the front bottom cover plate A, and one end of the threaded sleeve 18 is connected to the screw rod. The end plate 11 of the rear bottom cover plate B is provided with a connecting hole 16.

At the same time, when the bolt 19 is inserted into the connecting hole 16 of the rear bottom cover plate B, it can be more easily aligned with the threaded sleeve 18 with the help of the guide sleeve 161.
[0073] For another further implementation, see Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the abutment portion 105 of the inner cover 7 is cylindrical and has a threaded hole 1051. The abutment portion 105 is riveted or welded to the inner cover 7.
[0074] See Figures 13 to 15 As shown, the sheet metal cover is provided in two sets, namely a front cover and a rear cover. During installation, the front cover and the rear cover are located on the front and rear sides of the door panel, respectively. The front and rear covers are respectively provided with a front handle B1 and a rear handle A1.
[0075] The front cover does not have a bottom cover plate; only the rear cover has a bottom cover plate 1. The bottom cover plate 1 and the inner cover 7 of the front cover are connected by a connecting component.
[0076] The connecting components include a threaded sleeve 18 and a bolt 19. One end of the threaded sleeve 18 is provided with a screw head 181 that connects to the threaded hole 1051 of the inner cover 7 in the front cover body.
[0077] The bottom cover plate 1 of the rear cover body is provided with a connecting hole 16 on the end plate 11. The bolt 19 passes through the connecting hole 16 and connects with the threaded sleeve 18 to achieve the tightening of the rear bottom cover plate and the front cover body.
