Definitions

  • the invention relates to a locking device for data processing technology devices according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Devices are widely used in data processing technology, e.g. Personal computer that is only accessible to authorized persons and also, when not in use, against unlawful dismantling, e.g. Dismantling device components, should be secured. For this, it is no longer sufficient to switch off the device electrically only after use with a key switch, but at the same time the housing of the device must be mechanically locked.
  • the device is equipped with a cover which can be moved in front of the drives and which can advantageously be locked with the same key switch with which the device can be switched off electrically and the housing can be locked mechanically.
  • a locking device which performs the functions mentioned and is particularly suitable for personal computers.
  • This locking device has a simple swivel lever lock, such as is also used as a cassette lock, a microswitch and a locking bolt.
  • Two pivot levers are rigidly connected to the pivot axis of the pivot lever lock.
  • the locking bolt is displaceable transversely to the pivot axis and has a driver device for one of the pivot levers.
  • a tension spring is attached to the locking bar, which locks it into the lock position. In the locking position, the locking bolt engages with a nose provided at one end in an opening or recess in the cover that can be pushed in front of the drives of the personal computer.
  • the other end of the locking bolt has an angled arm which, in the unlocked position of the locking bolt, actuates the microswitch which switches the power supply on and off.
  • One of the swivel arms of the swivel lever lock engages when unlocking the swivel axis of the swivel lever lock from the Verin into the driver device of the locking bolt and pushes it back against the force of the tension spring.
  • the second swivel arm swings out from behind a retaining lug attached to the housing of the personal computer.
  • the locking bar is thus returned to the locking position by the tension spring. Since the pivot lever lock does not have its own spring support, intermediate positions are possible between the respective end positions of the pivot lever lock, even if the end positions are marked with catches. For this reason, a tension spring working via a dead center is attached to one of the swivel arms and pulls the swivel lever lock into one or the other end position.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a locking device with self-holding end positions without the use of tension springs, with which both the power supply of a device is switched on and off and the housing of the Device and a sliding cover installed on the housing can be locked individually.
  • the cover should also be able to be brought into the locking position subsequently to the swivel lever lock.
  • a locking device which has the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1. Thereafter, a leaf spring is used to support the spring of the swivel lever lock and a compression spring is used to push the locking bolt into the locking position, each of which is easy to assemble.
  • the spring support effects self-holding end positions of the swivel lever lock.
  • a swivel arm on the one hand as a mechanical locking element and on the other hand as an actuating element for the contact element of the microswitch, reduces the number of swivel arms of the swivel lever lock and simplifies the mechanics of the locking device.
  • the angled design of the swivel arm engaging behind the holding element of a part to be locked prevents canting during the engaging process.
  • the hole provided in the mounting plate serves as a receptacle for a nipple, through which the mounting plate is secured against twisting.
  • the housings and the frames of a device are each manufactured independently of one another, but each housing should fit every frame, the housings are relatively generously dimensioned, so that there is usually still some play between the housing and the frame during assembly.
  • the possibility of compensation is particularly important when using plastic housings that have large manufacturing tolerances due to the material technology.
  • the common assembly of the locking device on the housing of a device is in particular the interaction of the locking bar of the locking device with the opening or recess
  • a sliding cover installed on the housing is critical. For this reason, the final assembly of the locking device can only take place together with the housing. However, this results in a dependency between the individual frame and the individual housing. After repair work on the device, the housing must always be put back on carefully.
  • the locking device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is suitable, for example, for personal computers in which both the power supply is to be switched on and off and the housing and a sliding cover installed on the housing are to be individually lockable at the same time.
  • the power supply is not necessarily just the power supply for the entire device, but it can also be a special single circuit, for example.
  • a personal computer for example, can be the keyboard's power supply, which has the advantage that the risk of data loss due to inadvertent switching off is greatly reduced.
  • the locking device shown is shown in the locked position. All components belonging to the locking device are mounted on a mounting plate 1, namely a pivot lever lock 2 with three pivot arms 3 - 5, an over-center spring 6 belonging to the pivot lever lock 2, a locking bolt 7 together with the associated compression spring 8 and a microswitch 11.
  • the pivot arms 3 - 5 des Swivel lever lock 2 are rigidly connected to the swivel axis 9 of the swivel lever lock 2.
  • the individual swivel arms are arranged approximately uniformly distributed around the swivel axis 9.
  • the pivot axis 9 can be rotated counterclockwise by 90 °. After such a rotation, the swivel lever lock, and thus the entire locking device, is in the unlocked position.
  • the over-center spring 6 is attached to the free end of the first swivel arm 3. It is designed as a V-shaped leaf spring. Due to their spring tension, the swivel lever lock 2 receives two stable end positions, which are also self-retaining. Intermediate positions of the swivel lever lock 2 are not possible, except for the case of the middle position which can only be brought about consciously, since each intermediate position is transferred by the spring into one of the two end positions.
  • the leaf spring has rolled ends, so that it can be assembled very easily in relation to a tensioned coil spring by pushing on pin-like approaches, which are provided on the one hand at the free end of the swivel arm 3 and on the other hand on the mounting plate 1. Another advantage of the leaf spring is that it can be arranged in the space between the mounting plate 1 and the swivel arm 3, which gives the locking device a small installation depth.
  • the second swivel arm 4 serves as a locking element for a first part to be locked, in which it engages behind a holding element (not shown in the figure) of the part to be locked.
  • a holding element not shown in the figure
  • the swivel arm 4 emerges laterally behind the holding element of the part to be locked and releases the locked part. This can be, for example act as the case of a personal computer, which can then no longer be dismantled when locked.
  • the free end of the swivel arm 4 is slightly bent axially to the swivel axis 9 from the holding element (not shown) (FIG. 2).
  • the second swivel arm 4 is also used to actuate the contact element of a microswitch 11.
  • the microswitch 11 is mounted assigned to the free end of the swivel lever 4 in such a way that the free end of the swivel lever 4 presses on the contact element of the microswitch 11 in the locking position without its swiveling movement in the unlocked position.
  • the third swivel arm 5 interacts with the locking bolt 7.
  • the locking bolt 7 has a driver device in the form of an engagement recess into which the swivel arm 5 engages when swiveling from the locking position into the unlocking position. In the locked position, the swivel arm 5 is arranged outside the engagement area of the driver device.
  • the locking bolt 7 is displaceable transversely to the pivot axis 9 of the pivot lever lock 2.
  • the compression spring 8 is on a spring strut of the locking bolt 7, which at the same time forms the end of the locking bolt 7 pointing in the direction of the unlocking position.
  • the other end of the locking bolt 7 is formed by a chamfer as a nose which, in the locking position, engages in an opening or recess in a cover (not shown) which can be moved transversely to the axis of displacement of the locking bolt 7.
  • the two ends of the locking bolt 7 are each tapered with respect to its central region.
  • the two tapered ends each reach through an opening in a section of the mounting plate 1 that is bent up perpendicularly to the mounting plate plane.
  • the inner walls of the openings form guide walls for the longitudinally displaceable locking bolt 7.
  • the two-sided transition points from the respective end regions to the central region of the locking bolt 7 form stops with respect to the vertically bent-open element Sub-areas of the mounting plate 1, whereby the measure of the longitudinal displacements of the locking bolt 7 is determined in principle.
  • the compression spring 8 On the end of the locking bolt 7, which is designed as a spring strut, pointing in the direction of the unlocking position, the compression spring 8 to be taken into account sits between the transition point to the central region of the locking bolt 7 and the vertically bent-up partial region of the mounting plate 1, which changes during the displacements of the locking bolt 7 is supported on a support shoulder of the mounting plate 1 and on the other hand on a support shoulder of the locking bolt 7 formed by the transition point. As a result, the locking bolt 7 is always pressed in the direction of the locking position.
  • the assembly of the compression spring 8 is simple, since it only has to be pushed onto the spring strut and does not have to be hooked in under tension as a tension spring.
  • a bore 10 is provided, which serves as a receptacle for a nipple protruding from a fastening wall, which secures the locking device against rotation against the fastening wall.
