Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2108770A2] The lock has a lock mechanism for a latch (1) and a ratchet (2), where the lock is brought in different lock conditions. A detection device (3) is provided for determining the actual lock condition. A spring elastic bendable wire or a strip bending element (4) i.e. reset spring, is assigned to the lock mechanism, where the bending element is designed as a leg spring, spiral spring, helical compression spring, leaf spring or as tilting spring. Deflection of the bending element is determined with the detection device to infer the actual lock condition.
