Abstract
The invention relates to a lock comprising a housing (14, 55), a key operated lock cylinder (13, 51), which is arranged rotatable in the lock housing and a lock catch (11, 60), which is connected to the lock cylinder and rotatable between a locking position and a releasing position. The lock is arranged to be selectively set in a key operated mode, wherein the lock catch is rotatable with the lock cylinder, or in a push button operated mode, wherein the lock catch is movable by axial displacement of the lock cylinder.
Claims18
Lock comprising:
- a housing,
- a key operated lock cylinder, which is arranged rotatable in the lock housing;
- and
- a lock catch, which is connected to the lock cylinder and rotatable between a locking position and a releasing position,
- wherein the lock comprises a key operated mode and a push button operated mode,
- such that in the key operated mode the lock catch is rotatable to the releasing position with the lock cylinder as the lock cylinder rotates about an axis, and
- such that in the push button operated mode the lock catch is movable by axial displacement of the lock cylinder axially along the axis and in relation to the lock housing;
- wherein the lock catch, in the push button operated mode, is rotatable to the releasing position only by and in conjunction with axial displacement of the lock cylinder.

A lock, comprising:
- a housing;
- a key operated lock cylinder being rotatable between a first position and a second position;
- and
- a lock catch connected to the lock cylinder, the lock catch having a lock position and a release position,
- wherein when the lock cylinder is in the first position, the lock operates in a key operated mode such that in response to rotation by an inserted key, the lock catch rotates to the release position with the lock cylinder about an axis;
- and
- wherein when the lock cylinder is in the second position, the lock operates in a push button operated mode such that the lock catch rotates to the release position only in response to and in conjunction with an axial movement of the lock cylinder.

Lock comprising:
- a housing,
- a key operated lock cylinder, which is arranged rotatable in the lock housing;
- and
- a lock catch, which is connected to the lock cylinder and rotatable between a locking position and a releasing position,
- wherein the lock comprises a key operated mode and a push button operated mode,
- such that in the key operated mode, the lock catch rotates between the locking position and the releasing position only with rotation of the lock cylinder about an axis and the lock catch is not rotatable by axial displacement of the lock cylinder, and
- such that in the push button operated mode, the lock catch rotates between both the locking position and the releasing position only with and in conjunction with axial displacement of the lock cylinder, and rotation of the lock cylinder when in the push button operate mode switches the lock to the key operate mode.
