Abstract
A lock has a rotary latch held in a closed position by a pawl, that can be displaced into a release position in which the rotary latch can rotate into an open position. The lock has a storage element which, when the pawl is displaced into the release position, is displaced from a rest position into a storage position in which the pawl is blocked from being displaced back into its locking position and which, when the rotary latch is displaced back into the closed position, is displaced back into the rest position. The storage element has a projection which, in the locking position, is supported on a shoulder of the pawl, and which, in the storage position, rests against a flank of the pawl, and which is acted upon by the rotary latch when the rotary latch is displaced back.
Claims20
A lock, comprising:
- a rotary latch (3) that is configured to be displaced between an open position and a closed position,
- a pawl (11) that is configured to be displaced between a locking position and a release position, and
- a storage element (20) that is configured to be displaced between a rest position and a storage position and is acted upon in a direction of the storage position by a storage element spring (26),
- wherein the pawl (11) in the locking position holds the rotary latch (3) in the closed position,
- wherein a displacement of the pawl (11) from the locking position into the release position releases the rotary latch (3) for a displacement into the open position and leads to a displacement of the storage element (20) from the rest position into the storage position,
- wherein in the storage position, the storage element (20) prevents a displacement of the pawl (11) back into the locking position and is displaced from the storage position into the rest position against a restoring force of the storage element spring (26) during a displacement of the rotary latch (3), and
- wherein the storage element (20) is a slide or a pivoting element, which directly interacts with the pawl (11) so that the storage element is held in the rest position by the pawl (11) and holds the pawl (11) in the storage position.
A lock, comprising:
- a rotary latch (3) that is configured to be displaced between an open position and a closed position,
- a pawl (11) that is configured to be displaced between a locking position and a release position, and
- a storage element (20) that is configured to be displaced between a rest position and a storage position and is acted upon in the direction of the storage position by a storage element spring (26),
- wherein the pawl (11) in the locking position holds the rotary latch (3) in the closed position,
- wherein a displacement of the pawl (11) from the locking position into the release position releases the rotary latch (3) for a displacement into the open position and leads to a displacement of the storage element (20) from the rest position into the storage position,
- wherein in the storage position, the storage element (20) prevents a displacement of the pawl (11) back into the locking position and is displaced from the storage position into the rest position against the restoring force of the storage element spring (26) during a displacement of the rotary latch (3), and
- wherein the storage element (20) has a sliding or contact flank (23), which rests on a control flank (8) of the rotary latch (3) in the closed position and slides along the control flank (8) during displacement from the closed position into the open position.
A lock, comprising:
- a latch (3) that is arranged in a housing (1) and held in a closed position in an upright position of the lock, and
- a weight (41) that is arranged in the housing (1) and, during a displacement of the lock from the upright position into an inverted position about a tilting axis, is displaced from a rest position into a triggering position along a sliding surface (55) and in the process releases the latch (3) for a displacement from the closed position into an open position,
- wherein the housing (1) has one or more locking elements (56, 60, 61), on which an inhibition element (54′, 62) of the weight (41) is supported in such a way that the inhibition element inhibits a displacement of the weight (1) into the triggering position in an intermediate position between the upright position and the inverted position.
