Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coded locks, in particular to a key coded lock.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] With the development of society, mechanical coded locks have been widely applied to people's lives, for example, common luggage code cases and code cabinets. Due to the use of the mechanical coded locks, the inconvenience brought by the carrying of physical keys can be eliminated, and the inconvenience brought by the fact that the physical keys are forgotten or lost can be also eliminated. The mechanical coded locks can only be unlocked by using passwords of the coded locks, and thus the operation is very simple. Moreover, each employee is equipped with a coded lock and then the labor is also saved during the normal management in companies. Therefore, the mechanical coded locks are favored by people of all ages. However, with the increasing pressure in the daily lives, people tend to forget something. If the passwords are forgotten, locksets must be damaged, and then the inconvenience is brought to people's lives. Furthermore, the inconvenience can also be brought to the work management in the collective livelihood. For example, each employee has corresponding cabinet and normally keeps his own items by adding a mechanical coded lock on the cabinet, and managers may open the cabinet by damaging the mechanical coded lock when the employee cannot unlock the mechanical coded lock as the employee is out of office or due to other reasons, and thus certain financial loss can be caused.

[0003] The invention patent Apl. No. 200620054273.5 is disclosed by the China Patent Bureau (now the State Intellectual Property Office of the P.R.C) on January 31^st, 2007, with the title "Fingerprint Lock". The fingerprint lock comprises a fingerprint input module, a fingerprint acquisition and recognition module electrically connected with the fingerprint input module, a lockset mechanical module, and a door lock master control driving module electrically connected with the fingerprint acquisition and recognition module and the lockset mechanical module respectively. The fingerprint lock uses a fingerprint of the human body as an unlocking key, and then the phenomenon that the lock cannot be unlocked due to the reason such as the forgetting of a password can be avoided. However, the fingerprint lock requires a power supply source and thus cannot be used in the case of power failure. Meanwhile, the fingerprint lock has very high cost and is not suitable to be widely applied in common people.

[0021] The key coded lock can be unlocked by both a password and a key. When the key coded lock is in the locked state, firstly, the password is used for unlocking the key coded lock. The password is adjusted to be correct first, and the password adjustment wheels 02 may be driven to rotate when the password wheels 06 rotates. When the password is adjusted to be correct, the openings 024 of the circular rings 022 on the inner side faces of the password adjustment wheels 02 are all distributed linearly and engaged with the projections 014 of the first straight line section 012 of the latch hook 01. That is to say, when the latch hook 01 is pulled up herein, the latch hook 01 may be driven to move up until the latch hook 01 is disengaged from the casing, and then the unlocking function can be realized. Secondly, the key is used for unlocking the key coded lock. The correct key is inserted into the lock core 12 which is driven to rotate, and then the sleeve 10 may be driven to rotate by the lock core 12.

The sleeve 10 and the lock core 12 are connected with each other by means of inserting, and thus the structure is simple. When the lock core 12 rotates, the sleeve 10 is driven to rotate by the driving blocks.

[0024] Still further, the number of the driving blocks and the number of the connecting holes 102 are both two; and the two driving blocks are symmetrically arranged relative to the axial line of the lock core. By adoption of the two driving blocks and due to the symmetrical arrangement of the two driving blocks, a couple is produced during the rotation of the driving blocks, and thus the convenience is provided for the driving blocks to drive the sleeve 10 to rotate.

[0025] Preferably, a spring plate 04 is also arranged on the bottom shell 13 and has a stator 042 and elastic plates 041; and one ends of the elastic plates 041 are connected with the stator 042 and the other ends of the elastic plates 041 are positioned between the password wheels 06 and the bottom shell 13. By adoption of the spring plate 04, the password wheels 06 may be blocked by the spring plate 04 when rotating, and thus the sense of strength is higher during the rotation of the password wheels 06 and the operation is convenient.

[0026] Preferably, a pressure plate 03 is arranged under the stator 042; both the stator 042 and the pressure plate 03 are provided with a plurality of circular holes 043 engaged with each other; and a plurality of fixing columns 052 engaged with the circular holes 043 are formed in the middle of the surface shell 05 and inserted into the circular holes 043. By adoption of the pressure plate 03 and the circular holes 043, the spring plate 04 can be conveniently fixed.

[0027] Moreover, through holes used for the rotation of the password wheels 06 are formed on the left central section of the surface shell 05; an upper plughole is formed on the top left of the surface shell 05; the upper plughole and the lower plughole are engaged with each other to form a plughole for the first straight line section 012 to be inserted; an upper lock hole is formed on the right bottom of the surface shell 05; the upper lock hole and the lower lock hole 132 are engaged with each other to form a lock hole for mounting the lock core 12; an upper latch hook sleeve hole is formed on the top right of the surface shell 05; and the upper latch hook sleeve hole and the lower latch hook sleeve hole are engaged with each other to form a latch hook sleeve hole for mounting the latch hook sleeve 09. By arranging the upper plughole, the upper lock hole, the upper latch hook sleeve hole and the like on the surface shell 05 correspondingly, the key coded lock is convenient to assemble.

[0028] Furthermore, a convex clamping block 015 is formed on the side face of the first straight line section 012 and positioned on the projections 014; the bottom shell 13 is provided with a spacing hole 134; a stop block 11 is formed inside the spacing hole 134; when the lower end face of the clamping block 015 makes contact with the stop block 11, the lower end face of the second straight line section 013 is positioned on the casing; a spacing groove 133 along which the clamping block 015 moves is formed aside the lower plughole of the bottom shell 13; and when the clamping block 015 moves to the upper bottom of the spacing groove 133, the projections 014 on the side face of the first straight line section 012 are all positioned inside the annular columns 021 of the password adjustment wheels 02 corresponding to the projections 014 and the lower end of the second straight line section 013 is disengaged from the latch hook sleeve 09.

When the password is forgotten, the key can be used for unlocking and password search. During the operation, the correct key is inserted into the lock core 12 first and the lock core 12 is driven to rotate, and then the sleeve 10 is driven to rotate by the lock core 12; when the sleeve 10 is driven to rotate until the latch hook sleeve 09 is extended into the casing, the push rod 103 is positioned on the left of the sleeve 10; in the process, the movable block 14 is gradually pushed to the left by the sleeve 10; after the movable block 14 is driven to move to the left, the password search rods 15 in the mounting holes of the movable block 14 are also driven to move to the left; if the password search rods 15 are inserted into the corresponding password search holes 023, the corresponding password wheels 06 of the password adjustment wheels 02 are correct when the corresponding password adjustment wheels 02 of the password adjustment rods are at the unlocking position; if the password search rods 15 are not inserted into the corresponding password search holes 023, the password adjustment wheels 02 can rotate, that is to say, the password wheels 06 can rotate as well; when the password wheels 06 rotates, the password adjustment wheels 02 are driven to rotate until the password search rods 15 are inserted into the corresponding password search holes 023 under the thrust force of the password search springs 16; and when all the password search rods 15 are inserted into the password search holes 023, all the password wheels 06 do not rotate and are also in the correct password state, and then the password search process is completed. Once the key is used and the key coded lock is in the unlocking state, the push rod 103 is driven to be disengaged from the left of the sleeve 10 by the rotation of the key; the movable block 14 is driven to move to the right under the action of the offsetting springs 17; and the password search rods 15 are disengaged from the password search holes 023. The key coded lock has the advantages that: the structure is simple; by skillful combination of the password and the physical key, the trouble caused by the fact that the password is forgotten or the person knowing the password is out can be avoided; the management is convenient; and by adoption of the cipher device 20, the password can be found when the key is used for unlocking the key coded lock.

[0032] Furthermore, a plurality of password search blocks 141 protruded to the left are formed on the front end portion of the left of the movable block 14; and the mounting holes are formed on left end faces of the password search blocks 141. By adoption of the convex password search blocks 141, the materials and space can be saved.

[0033] Still further, a plurality of through holes engaged with the password search rods 15 are formed on right sides of the password adjustment holes (as illustrated in Figs. 8, 10 and 11). When the right sides of the password adjustment holes are designed to prevent the password search rods 15 from inserting into the password search holes 023, the through holes engaged with the password search rods 15 can be opened to help left sides of the password search rods 15 to be inserted into the password search holes 023. Still further, the mounting holes are conical through holes, and the password search rods 15 are conical rods. The conical rods can be limited by the conical holes, and the assembly and operation are also convenient.

[0034] Still further, the sleeve 10 consists of a spiral upper cover 105 and a spiral lower cover 104; a clamping column is formed on the lower end face of the spiral upper cover 105; a clamping hole is formed on the upper end face of the spiral lower cover 104; and the clamping column is extended into the clamping hole. By separation of the sleeve 10 into two parts, namely the spiral upper cover 105 and the spiral lower cover 104, the processing is convenient.

[0035] Still further, a slide block 142 is formed on the right of the movable block 14; a sliding groove 143 engaged with the slide block 142 is formed on the right central section of the bottom shell 13; and a movable groove engaged with the push rod 103 is formed in the middle of the slide block 142. Due to the arrangement of the slide block 142 and the sliding groove 143, the movable block 14 is driven to perform directional movement under the thrust force of the push rod 103, namely the slide block 142 is driven to move to the left along the sliding groove 143, so that the shaking of the movable block 14 can be avoided. Moreover, due to the arrangement of the sliding groove 143, the push rod 103 can make contact with the movable block 14 conveniently. As the vertical length of the sliding groove 143 is the same with that of the push rod 103, the engagement is tight.

[0036] Still further, positioning columns 144 engaged with the offsetting springs 17 are arranged on the left bottom of the movable block 14; and the offsetting springs 17 are sleeved on the positioning columns 144. Due to the arrangement of the positioning columns 144, the offsetting springs 17 can be limited on the positioning columns 144, so that the phenomenon that the function of resetting the movable block 14 cannot be realized as the offsetting springs 17 are offset due to the shaking of the device can be avoided.

[0037] Detailed description is given to the invention. It shall be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications or equivalent replacements can be made on the technical proposal of the invention without departing from the essence and scope of the technical proposal of the invention.
