Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model relates to an extendable lock cylinder. [Background Technology]

[0002] Existing lock technology encompasses a wide variety of types. A lock cylinder consists of a cylinder body, an inner cylinder, and a shift fork. Unlocking is achieved by using a key to operate the inner cylinder, which rotates the shift fork, which in turn drives other mechanisms of the lock to open the door. Because the length of the lock cylinder is fixed and cannot be freely varied, and because door thicknesses vary, the required outer and inner lengths of the lock cylinder differ. This necessitates that lock cylinders installed on doors also vary in length to match the door's thickness. Consequently, lock cylinder production requires custom-making based on the actual door thickness, necessitating the production of numerous different lengths. This creates significant inconvenience in lock cylinder manufacturing, resulting in a wide variety of lock types, making mass production difficult. Furthermore, it leads to high production costs, large inventory, and resource waste for manufacturers, increasing overall expenses. At the same time, it also brings a lot of inconvenience to sellers, and users are also easily confused when choosing the length of the lock cylinder when purchasing door locks.

[0020] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a modular extended lock cylinder includes a connecting beam 1 and a lever 3. The lever 3 is located below the connecting beam 1. In this case, the vertical and horizontal positions are relative, with the horizontal direction referring to the axis of the inner cylinder 20. Lock cylinder housings 2 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the connecting beam 1. The lever 3 contains two clutch blocks 31. The lever 3 has a clutch groove, and the clutch blocks 31 have clutch protrusions. When the key pushes, one side of the clutch block 31 engages with the lever 3, while the other side of the clutch block 31 disengages from the lever 3. This structure is a conventional arrangement. Of course, there are other clutch mechanisms, which will not be described in detail here. The connecting beam 1 and the lock cylinder housing 2 are connected by at least one set of extended modules 4. The extended modules 4 are also located between the lock cylinder housing 2 and the lever 3, and are inserted into the lock cylinder housing 2, the lever 3, and the lock cylinder housing 2. The extension module 4 includes an extension module housing 41. The extension module housing 41 has a horizontally arranged connecting pin 42 and a through hole 43. The horizontal through hole allows the connecting pin 42 to pass through. A connector 44 is rotatably housed within the through hole 43. The connector 44 is inserted into the clutch block 31 or an adjacent connector 44. The connector 44 can be fixed to the clutch block 31 by a snap ring. One end of the connector 44 extends out of the through hole 43. The connector 44 can drive the clutch block 31 to rotate. When the clutch block 31 moves laterally, it can engage with the dial 3. When the key is inserted, the end of the key inserted can drive the dial 3 to rotate.
