Latchbolt mechanism and latchbolt accommodating mechanism

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of locks and relates to a latchbolt mechanisms, comprising a rotatable latchbolt (16) and an elastic element (17), wherein the rotatable latchbolt (16) is fixedly mounted on a rotatable pin shaft, round which the rotatable latchbolt rotates, and wherein the elastic element (17) holds the rotatable latchbolt (16) in an extended state. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a latchbolt accommodating mechanism, comprising an accommodating chamber (b1) and a cover plate (b2), wherein a chamber opening of the accommodating chamber is covered by the cover plate, and wherein a first through hole (b21) and a second through hole (b22) are mounted on the cover plate, wherein the stop block (162) is inserted rotatably into the first through hole (b21) and the rotatable latchbolt (16) is inserted rotatably into the second through hole (b22). Therefore, a rotational unlocking and locking is enabled and is suitable not only for hinged doors, but also for sliding doors. By a rotary movement, actions of door opening and closing are avoided in a usual case.
