[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] refer to Figure 1-4 A specific embodiment of this utility model provides a spring-loaded door latch, including a first mounting base 1, a second mounting base 2, a latch rod 5, and a spring 11. In the unlocked state, the latch rod 5 passes through the first mounting base 1 and is rotatably connected to the first mounting base 1. In the locked state, the latch rod 5 passes through the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2. The spring 11 is installed between the first mounting base 1 and the latch rod 5. In the unlocked state, the latch rod 5 is axially restricted to the first mounting base 1 by the spring 11. In the locked state, the latch rod 5 is axially restricted to the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2 by the spring 11.

[0018] A latch is a device that uses mechanical locking to achieve the anti-theft function of doors and windows. It consists of two parts: a movable rod and a latch hole. Existing latches require manual pushing to open and close. If the latch is not reset, the door may become loose and unable to function as an anti-theft device, creating a security hazard. In this application, the latch rod 5 can be rotatably connected to the first mounting base 1, and can also be manually inserted into both the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2 simultaneously to lock the door. When the latch rod 5 is only connected to the first mounting base 1, the door is unlocked. The main function of the spring 11 is to provide axial return force to the latch rod 5. Whether locking or unlocking the door, the latch rod 5 needs to be manually pushed to insert or disengage from the second mounting base 2. The return force of the spring 11 allows the latch rod 5 to stably maintain a state where it is simultaneously inserted into the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2 or disengaged from the second mounting base 2 (i.e., only inserted into the first mounting base 1). (Unlocked state); When the door needs to be unlocked, manually pull the latch 5 out of the second mounting base 2, while overcoming the rebound force generated by the spring 11, and rotate the latch 5 so that the latch 5 is completely disengaged from the second mounting base 2. After releasing, the latch 5 moves axially according to the rebound force of the spring 11, thereby achieving the unlocked state of the door; When the door needs to be locked, manually push the latch 5 axially, while overcoming the rebound force generated by the spring 11, and rotate the latch 5, thereby bringing the latch 5 close to and aligning it with the second mounting base 2. After releasing, the latch 5 moves axially according to the rebound force of the spring 11 and automatically inserts into the second mounting base 2, avoiding the hidden danger of manual insertion not being in place, thereby achieving the locked state of the door. The spring-loaded door latch of this application can ensure that the latch 5 is locked after the door is closed, effectively preventing the safety hazards caused by the door being accidentally opened.

[0019] This application applies to both doors and windows, as well as various cabinet doors.

[0020] Further optimize the plan, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the pin 5 includes a first pin 6, a second pin 7, and a third pin 8. The first pin 6, the second pin 7, and the third pin 8 are connected in sequence. The first pin 6 and the third pin 8 are arranged in parallel. The second pin 7 is vertically connected between the first pin 6 and the third pin 8. The third pin 8 passes through the first mounting base 1. In the locked state, the first pin 6 passes through the second mounting base 2.

[0021] The main function of the first pin 6 is to achieve a locked state when inserted into the second mounting base 2; the main function of the second pin 7 is to connect the first pin 6 and the third pin 8; the third pin 8 is always inserted into the first mounting base 1, whether the door is locked or unlocked.

[0022] Further optimization of the scheme also includes a first pin hole 3 and a second pin hole 4. The first pin hole 3 is opened on the first mounting base 1, and the third pin 8 passes through the first pin hole 3. The second pin hole 4 is opened on the second mounting base 2. In the locked state, the first pin 6 passes through the second pin hole 4.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the size of the first pin hole 3 is adapted to the size of the third pin 8, and the size of the second pin hole 4 is adapted to the size of the first pin 6. The first pin 6 passes through the second pin hole 4 to achieve a locking state, which is suitable for the case where the axes of the first pin hole 3 and the second pin hole 4 are parallel, that is, the installation state where the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2 are installed side by side. If the third pin 8 passes through the first pin hole 3 and then continues to pass through the second pin hole 4 to achieve a locking state, it is suitable for the case where the axes of the first pin hole 3 and the second pin hole 4 are collinear, that is, the installation state where the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2 are collinear. This application only shows one installation state, namely... Figure 1-2 The installation state of the first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2 side by side is shown.

[0024] Further optimization of the scheme also includes a mounting groove 10 and a spring 11. The mounting groove 10 is opened in the side wall of the first mounting seat 1. The first pin hole 3 passes through the mounting groove 10. The spring 11 is sleeved on the third pin 8 located in the mounting groove 10 and abuts against the side wall of the third pin 8 and the inner side wall of the mounting groove 10.

[0025] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the main function of the mounting slot 10 is to provide mounting space for the spring 11.

[0026] Further optimize the plan, such as Figure 4 As shown, it also includes an annular groove 13 and a retaining spring 12. The annular groove 13 is formed on the peripheral side wall of the third pin 8. The retaining spring 12 is inserted into the annular groove 13 and located in the mounting groove 10. The spring 11 abuts against the side of the retaining spring 12 near the second pin 7 and between it and the inner side wall of the mounting groove 10. The outer diameter of the retaining spring 12 is larger than the inner diameter of the first pin hole 3.

[0027] Before installing the retaining ring 12, insert the third pin 8 into the mounting groove 10 from the first end of the first pin hole 3. Then, put the spring 11 on the end of the third pin 8 away from the second pin 7. Then, continue to pass the third pin 8 through the second end of the first pin hole 3 until the annular groove 13 is close to the second end of the first pin hole 3. Insert the retaining ring 12 into the annular groove 13. Since the outer diameter of the retaining ring 12 is larger than the inner diameter of the first pin hole 3, the retaining ring 12 cannot pass through the first pin hole 3. In this way, the spring 11 can be abutted between the side of the retaining ring 12 near the second pin 7 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 10.

[0028] Further optimization of the scheme also includes a cover plate 9, which covers the groove 14 of the mounting groove 10.

[0029] like Figure 2-3 As shown, after the mounting groove 10 is opened in the side wall of the first mounting base 1, a slot 14 is formed on the side wall of the first mounting base 1. The cover plate 9 is placed in the slot 14 to protect the spring 11 and the snap ring 12 in the mounting groove 10 and prevent them from being removed at will.

[0030] The design was further optimized so that the length of the third pin 8 is greater than the length of the first pin 6.

[0031] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this arrangement can shorten the sliding stroke between the third pin 8 and the first pin 6, reducing the material used for the first pin 6. It allows the first pin 6 to be quickly inserted into or disengaged from the second pin hole 4, while ensuring an effective connection between the third pin 8 and the first mounting base 1.
