Abstract (en)

A locking device (100) for blocking a retractable screen (600) comprises:- a fixed portion (102), and a movable portion (103) connected to a pin (101), the movable portion being movable with respect to the fixed portion,- an engaging mechanism for providing engagement between the fixed portion (102) and the movable portion (103), the engaging mechanism allowing a first configuration of the movable portion relative to the fixed portion wherein the pin (101) is extended for blocking the screen (600), and a second configuration of the movable portion relative to the fixed portion wherein pin (101) is retracted for unblocking the screen (600),- a cycling mechanism including a force member configured to provide a force between the movable portion (103) and the fixed portion (102) in a predetermined direction, the cycling mechanism adapted to provide a transition of the movable portion from the first configuration to the second configuration by moving the movable portion with respect to the fixed portion in a direction against the force and then releasing it, and from the second configuration to the first configuration by moving the movable portion in the same direction and releasing it.
