Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lock technology, and in particular to a panel padlock. Background Technology
[0002] A panel lock is a type of lock installed on door panels and other components. It primarily controls the opening and closing of the door by rotating a handle, which in turn rotates the bolt. However, before rotating the handle, it is generally necessary to first push it upwards at a certain angle to open the door. Unfortunately, most existing lock handles cannot stably remain in the pushed position; once released, the handle tends to automatically fall back down under its own weight, causing inconvenience in opening and using the lock. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a panel padlock.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A panel padlock includes a panel and a pivot mounted on the panel. A handle is connected to the pivot. The pivot has an inwardly recessed mounting groove inside its bushing. A spring and a ball bearing abut against the spring are disposed in the mounting groove. The handle has a first groove and a second groove for the ball bearing to abut against. When the handle is turned upward, the ball bearing can abut against the second groove outward.
[0006] Preferably, the panel has a groove for accommodating the handle, and when the handle is placed in the groove, the ball bearing can abut against the groove outward.
[0007] Preferably, the panel is provided with a base for mounting a rotating shaft, the screw of the rotating shaft passes through the base, and a nut for fixing a locking tongue is threaded onto the screw.
[0008] Preferably, the bushing is fitted with a sealing ring that abuts against the base, the mounting groove is provided with a rubber plug, and one end of the spring abuts against the rubber plug.
[0009] Preferably, the handle is connected to a pin, and the handle is rotatably connected to the bushing via the pin.
[0010] Preferably, the lower end of the panel is provided with a stop plate, and the lower end of the handle is provided with a hanging hole corresponding to the position of the stop plate, and a padlock capable of abutting against the stop plate is installed on the hanging hole.
[0011] Preferably, the panel is threaded with several mounting bolts.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. Two adjacent grooves are made on the handle, and a ball bearing that can abut against the first and second grooves is set in the mounting groove of the bushing. When the handle is attached to the panel, the ball bearing abuts against the first groove to limit the abutment of the handle, thereby preventing the handle from shaking or swinging. When the handle is pushed upward to prepare to rotate the handle, the ball bearing abuts against the second groove to position the rotating handle through the cooperation of the ball bearing and the spring. That is, the handle can always maintain a certain pushing angle and will not fall back downward on its own, thus making the rotation and opening operation of the handle more convenient and reliable.
[0014] 2. A padlock is installed at the lower end of the handle to achieve a double locking effect of the lock through the cooperation of the padlock and the handle, thereby making the locking operation of the lock more reliable. In addition, placing the padlock at the bottom of the lock makes the overall structure of the lock more compact.
[0015] 3. The bolt is fixed by the nut on the screw, which allows for flexible adjustment of the bolt position so that the lock can be used on door panels of different thicknesses, greatly improving the practicality of the lock. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0023] In the description of this specification, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or unit referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a panel padlock includes a panel 1 and a pivot 2 disposed on the panel 1. The panel 1 is threaded with a plurality of mounting bolts 14, and the panel 1 is fixedly mounted to a door panel by the mounting bolts 14.
[0025] The panel 1 is provided with a base 11 for mounting the rotating shaft 2. The screw 21 of the rotating shaft 2 passes through the base 11. The bushing 22 of the rotating shaft 2 is disposed inside the base 11, and the rotating shaft 2 is fixedly installed on the base 11. The bushing 22 is fixedly connected to the screw 21. A sealing ring 23 is provided on the outer periphery of the bushing 22 to abut against the base 11, so as to seal the gap between the bushing 22 and the base 11 through the sealing ring 23, and prevent external rainwater and other substances from seeping into the lock.
[0026] The screw 21 is threaded with a nut 211 for fixing the lock tongue. The nut 211 on the screw 21 abuts against and fixes the lock tongue, thereby allowing the lock tongue position to be flexibly adjusted so that the lock can be used on door panels of different thicknesses, greatly improving the practicality of the lock.
[0027] A handle 3 is connected to the rotating shaft 2. Specifically, a pin 31 is connected to the handle 3. The handle 3 is rotatably connected to the bushing 22 through the pin 31, so that the handle 3 can be moved up and down relative to the bushing 22.
[0028] The bushing 22 of the rotating shaft 2 has an inwardly recessed mounting groove 221. The mounting groove 221 is provided with a spring 4 and a ball bearing 5 abutting against the spring 4. The handle 3 has a first groove 33 and a second groove 34 for the ball bearing 5 to abut against. The first groove 33 and the second groove 34 are adjacent to each other at the upper end of the handle 3, that is, the ball bearing 5 abuts against the first groove 33 or the second groove 34 by the action of the spring 4.
[0029] The mounting groove 221 is provided with a rubber plug 6, and one end of the spring 4 abuts against the rubber plug 6. The rubber plug 6 is used to seal the space between the bushing 22 and the screw 21 to prevent external rainwater from seeping into the lock.
[0030] The panel 1 has a groove 12 for accommodating the handle 3. When the handle 3 is placed in the groove 12, the ball bearing 5 can abut against the groove 33. Specifically, when the handle 3 is attached to the panel 1, the ball bearing 5 abuts against the groove 33 to limit the contact of the handle 3, thereby preventing the handle 3 from shaking or swinging randomly.
[0031] When the handle 3 is pushed upward, the ball 5 can abut against the groove 34. Specifically, when the handle 3 is pushed upward to prepare to rotate the handle 3, the ball 5 abuts against the groove 34. The ball 5 and the spring 4 cooperate to position the rotating handle 3, so that the handle 3 can always maintain a certain pushing angle and will not fall back downward on its own, making the rotation and opening operation of the handle 3 more convenient and reliable.
[0032] Furthermore, the lower end of the panel 1 is provided with a stop plate 13, and the lower end of the handle 3 is provided with a hanging hole 32 corresponding to the position of the stop plate 13. A padlock 7 that can abut against the stop plate 13 is installed on the hanging hole 32. That is, when the padlock 7 is installed on the hanging hole 32, the stop plate 13 abuts against the padlock 7 to limit the upward movement of the handle 3. Thus, by setting the padlock 7 at the lower end of the handle 3, the double locking effect of the lock can be achieved by the cooperation of the padlock 7 and the handle 3, making the locking operation of the lock more reliable. Moreover, by setting the padlock 7 at the bottom of the lock, the overall structure of the lock is more compact.
[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
