  • the electronic means themselves can be controlled by a wide variety of devices such as magnetic, punched or other card readers, keyboards, badge readers, etc.
  • GB-A-2 107 778 discloses an electrically lockable / unlockable lock.
  • An element such as a coupling rod cooperates with a slot formed in a hub having means for driving the bolt of the lock. This element is controlled by a solenoid between an engagement position in the slot (locked position) and a disengagement position from the slot (unlocked position).
  • a control member of a lock is made maneuverable constantly, even though the second control member can be locked.
  • the axis of said first member connecting it to the lock mechanism is then distinct from the axis of the second control member and can thus be actuated independently of said second control member, whether the latter is locked or unlocked.
  • a lock mechanism of this type can comprise either a single follower or a double follower.
  • EP-A-0 172 796 discloses an electrically lockable / unlockable lock which can be operated manually, at least on one side of the door, without using electrical control means.
  • the electrically operable coupling device comprises a plate fixed in rotation on one of the axes of actuation of the lock and which has a notch at its periphery in which a coupling finger engages or disengages under the effect electrical actuation means.
  • the electrical actuating device allowing the operation of the coupling finger is relatively complex and bulky insofar as it comprises the electric motor on which is mounted an eccentric and a cam, the eccentric being connected to the coupling finger by means of two link arms which, when the eccentric is driven in rotation by the motor, pivotally drive the coupling finger between a coupling position (unlocking) and a non-coupling position (locking).
  • the subject of the invention is an electrical control device for locking / unlocking a panic lock comprising two control members, one of which is constantly operable, of the type comprising a reversible electric motor controlling a locking / unlocking element of the other control member of the lock comprising a coupling finger cooperating with a peripheral notch provided on a disc secured to the other control member of a lock to be locked / unlocked, characterized in that than the electric motor carries a crown or a disc integral with the axis of the motor and provided with a plurality of eccentric axial projections, the locking / unlocking element being constituted by the coupling finger pivotally mounted on a plate and by a elastic connecting element integral with said coupling finger at one of its ends and one free end of which is disposed in the path of said axial projections, being able to escape from said projections.
  • the elastic connecting element pivots the coupling finger which cooperates with the peripheral notch provided on the disc secured to the axis of the control member of the lock to be locked / unlocked such as, for example , the exterior control handle of a door.
  • the coupling finger is pivotally mounted at one of its ends on a projection of the plate, the pivot axis of said coupling finger being parallel to said plate.
  • the rotation of the motor in one direction or in the other causes, via the eccentric axial projections, a stress on the connecting element which, in turn, causes the pivoting of the coupling finger around its axis of pivoting on the plate.
  • the invention also relates to a lock having an anti-panic function comprising a lock mechanism with single follower and a locking / unlocking device according to the invention, characterized in that it comprises a first constantly maneuverable control member whose axis, integral in rotation with the follower of the lock mechanism, is also integral in rotation of the plate on which the coupling finger is fixed, the plate being free to rotate and a second operating member, the end of the axis of which is provided with a disc in which a peripheral notch is formed, the coupling finger, controlled by the electric motor, engaging or disappearing from said peripheral notch.
  • the axis of the second control member is not integral with the lock mechanism and the lock is in position lock.
  • Controlling the engagement of the coupling finger in the notch by pivoting the coupling finger leads to the securing of the second control member with the lock mechanism, which allows actuation of the lock.
  • the lock When the lock is of the type comprising a double follower, it comprises a first constantly operable control member whose axis is integral in rotation with the first follower and a second control member whose axis, having its end integral in rotation with the second follower, comprises a disc provided with a peripheral notch with which the coupling finger cooperates, the plate being fixed on a base and traversed by the axis of said second member.
  • the coupling finger when it engages in the notch of the disc secured to the axis of the second control member, blocks the actuation of said second member and, when it disappears out of the notch, unlocks 1 " actuation of the control member.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic exploded perspective view of a single-bolt lock fitted with K) of an electrical control device according to
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic side elevational view of a lock according to Figure 1; and FIG. 3 is a schematic view in side elevation of a double follower lock equipped with a device according to the invention.
  • the electrical control device shown in FIG. 1 comprises a reversible electric motor 1 and a coupling finger 2 pivotally mounted on a plate 3.
  • the plate 3 has a parallelepiped shape and extends along a base E against which the lock is
  • the axis of the motor 1 carries a crown 4 or disc provided with axial projections in the form of studs 5 arranged regularly 30 spaced apart at the periphery of the crown 4 or of the disc.
  • the coupling finger 2 is provided with a middle hole 6.
  • an elastic connecting element 7 constituted by a rod made of an elastic material.
  • One end of the rod 7 is engaged in the path of the studs 5 so as to be able to escape these studs and the other end of the rod 7 is threaded into the hole 6.
  • the coupling finger 2 can occupy a position in which one of its ends 2 "is held in a peripheral notch 14 of a disc 13 secured to an axis 12 of a control handle 11.
  • the end 2 "of the coupling finger 2 is M held in the position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in which it escapes the notch 14 or else in a position in which the coupling finger 2 is engaged in the notch 14.
  • the pivot axis X of the coupling finger 2 is perpendicular to the plate 3. 0
  • the rod 7 is always supported under stress on a stud 5, so that the position of the coupling finger 2, determined by the preceding direction of rotation of the motor 1, is maintained stably.
  • the control member 8 When the lock is of the type with anti-panic function comprising a lock mechanism with a single follower (FIGS. 1 and 2), the control member 8, constantly ⁇ maneuverable, comprises an axis 9 integral in rotation with the simple follower 10 (shown schematically). The axis 9 is also integral in rotation, at its end, with the plate 3 which is mounted free in rotation relative to the base E against which it extends.
  • the control member 11 lockable and unlockable by the device according to the invention, comprises an axis 12 provided at one end with a disc 13 carrying a peripheral notch 14.
  • the coupling finger 2 When the coupling finger 2 is pivotally driven, it can engage in the notch 14.
  • the axis 12 of the control member 11 is thus secured to the lock mechanism and the actuation of this member 11 allows 1 actuation of the lock mechanism, the rotation drive of the axis 12 being transmitted by the coupling finger 2 to the plate 3, free in rotation and which in turn drives the axis 9 of the other member of operation 8 linked to the follower 10 of the lock mechanism.
  • the coupling finger 2 is erased from the notch 14 and the axis 12 of the control member 11 is disconnected from the lock mechanism, the control member 11 then being mad in rotation.
