Definitions
- the invention relates to the technical sector of handcuffs in the form of two bracelets connected by a chain and intended to be passed around the wrists of an individual in particular.
- a handcuff comprises a half bracelet, one of the ends of which forms a notched locking sector acting as a rack.
- the other end of the half-bracelet, opposite the notched sector is mounted with the capacity for free pivoting between two profiled flanges forming a half-bracelet complementary to that having the notched sector.
- Between the profiled flanges, opposite the articulation of the locking half-bracelet is mounted, in particular by riveting, ' an intermediate body receiving, with sliding capacity under the push of a spring, a pawl whose teeth is intended to cooperate with that of the notched locking sector.
- the pawl is maneuverable by means of a key to be retracted against its spring in order to escape the teeth of the notched locking sector for its concomitant release allowing the opening of the handcuff.
- the entire handcuff as defined is completed by a cylinder lock to ensure the locking in position of the pawl in engagement with the toothed sector of the rack.
- the barrel of the lock is housed and angularly indexed in a complementary imprint that has an enlarged part of each of the flanges.
- the barrel of the lock has an eccentric locking finger capable of cooperating with a notch which has the edge outside of the pawl to secure it in position.
- the object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks in a simple, safe, effective and rational manner.
- the problem which the invention proposes to solve is to use a single key, namely that generally used to ensure the displacement of the pawl relative to the notched locking sector with the aim of being able, at will, to lock in position said pawl and always unlock it with the same aforementioned key.
- a double security handcuff of the type defined previously, has been designed and developed, remarkable in that it comprises:
- the 'assembly comprises a sheath fixed in the flanges and a manually actuatable push button and mounted with linear sliding capacity guided in said sheath, to cooperate with the arrangements of the pawl, said push button receiving a pivoting lever able to cooperate with the crank pin of the key for ensure its recall upwards against linear indexing means.
- the linear indexing means consist of at least one ball mounted against an elastic member in a hole formed transversely in the thickness of the pusher to cooperate with any one of two grooves internal circular sleeves to correspond to two positions of said pusher depending on whether or not the pawl is locked.
- the sheath has at one of its ends, a lateral notch for the overflow of the pusher for its cooperation with the arrangements of the pawl under a driving effect.
- the arrangements of the pawl consist of a notch cooperating with the projecting end of the pusher.
- Another problem that the invention proposes to solve is being able to temporarily retract the return lever of the pusher under the effect of rotation of the key with a view to its removal.
- the pusher has at one of its ends, according to its generatrices, a notch for the housing and the pivoting of the return lever.
- the part of the flange receiving the pawl has a recess to allow the pivoting of the return lever.
- the sleeve is angularly indexed relative to the flanges.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view before assembly of the main elements of a handcuff according to the features of the invention
- - Figure 2 is a plan view of the handcuff, one of the flasks being removed;
- FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 are partial sectional views on a larger scale showing the operating principle of the locking assembly, without key, of the pawl relative to the rack of the half-bracelet and in which:
- Figure 3 corresponds to the non-locking position of the pawl allowing, therefore, the adjustment of the rack;
- Figure 4 shows the locking in position of the pawl after a digital action on the pusher;
- Figure 5 shows the possibility of retracting the return lever in the ratchet locking position in order to remove the key under a pivoting effect.
- Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line 6-6 of Figure 3;
- Figure 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along line 7-7 of Figure 3.
- the handcuff essentially comprises a half bracelet (1), one of the ends of which has a locking sector (la) serving as a rack.
- the half-bracelet (1) is mounted with pivoting capacity between two profiled flanges (2) and (3) forming a half-bracelet of complementary shape.
- the notched sector (la) serves as a rack of the wolf teeth type oriented to cooperate, in one direction, with teeth (4a) established in a reverse orientation that has a pawl (4).
- the pawl (4) is housed with play and with displacement capacity in an opening (5a) of an intermediate piece (5) fixed between the two flanges (2) and (3) at the level of an enlarged part (2a) and (3a).
- the toothed end (4a) of the pawl (4) is in constant abutment against the teeth of the rack (la) under the effect of the thrust of a spring (6).
- the intermediate piece (5) is suitably shaped to match the shape of the enlarged part (2a) and (3a) of the flanges (2) and (3) to correspond to the radius of curvature of the rack (la) of the half-bracelet (1).
- the half-strap (1) cooperates by its toothing (la) acting as a rack, with the toothing (4a) of the pawl (4), after engagement between the flanges (2) and (3). Note that the half bracelet (1) and the pawl (4) have the same thickness.
- This key (7) has, at its end, a crank pin (7a) able to cooperate, under a rotary drive effect, with a recess (4b) of the pawl (4), which allows it to be retracted towards the low against the spring (6) in order to release it from the toothing of the rack (la) of the half-strap (1).
- the handcuff has a manually actuatable assembly shaped to ensure, without any key, the locking in position of engagement of the teeth (4a) of the pawl (4) relative to the teeth of the rack (la).
- this assembly comprises a sheath (9) fixed between the flanges (1) and (2) at their enlarged part (2a) and (3a).
- the sheath (9) is housed and angularly indexed in a complementary imprint that has the enlarged part (2a) and (3a) of each of the flanges (2) and (3).
- the sheath (9) receives, with guided linear sliding capacity, a pusher (10) manually operable to be moved, as it will be indicated later, in two extreme positions corresponding to the blocking or unblocking of the pawl (4) relative to the rack (la).
- a pusher (10) manually operable to be moved, as it will be indicated later, in two extreme positions corresponding to the blocking or unblocking of the pawl (4) relative to the rack (la).
- the pusher (10) receives a pivoting lever (11) able to cooperate with the crank pin (7a) of the key (7) to ensure its return upwards against linear indexing means, according to the two aforementioned extreme positions.
- linear indexing means consist of at least one but generally two balls (12) and (13) mounted against an elastic member in the form of a spring (14), in a hole (10b) formed transversely in the thickness of the pusher (10).
- balls (12) and (13) are intended to cooperate with any one of two circular grooves (9a) and (9b) formed in the bore of the sleeve (9).
- the sheath (9) has at one of its ends, a lateral notch (9c) for the overflow of the end (10a) of the pusher.
- the pusher (10) has a notch (10d) formed at one of its ends and according to its generatrices for housing and pivoting by means of a transverse axis (15) of the return lever (11).
- the angular indexing of the entire sheath (9) with its pusher (10) is effected by means of a pin (16) housed in the thickness of the flanges (1) and (2), and of the plate interlayer (5), as well as in a transverse hole (9d) of the sleeve and a longitudinal groove (10e) of the pusher.
- this sleeve assembly (9) - pusher (10) - pivoting lever (11) advantageously replaces a cylinder lock, which, according to the state of the art, this type of handcuff, requiring the use of a special key for its operation.
- FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 show the operating principle.
- the pawl (4) is not locked relative to the rack (la) of the half-bracelet (1).
- the balls (12) and (13) of the pusher (10) are housed in the internal groove (9a) of the sleeve (9).
- the end (10a) of the pusher escapes the notch (4c) of the pawl (4).
- the key (7) can, in this position, turn freely and come, if necessary, by its crank pin (7a) in cooperation with the other notch (4b) to retract the pawl (4) corresponding to the opening of the half bracelet (1).
- crank pin (7a) has the possibility of coming to be positioned in the other notch (4b) of the pawl in order to release it from the rack (la) of the half-bracelet (1). Note that, in this position of engagement of the crank pin (7a) in the notch (5b) of the pawl and if, for different reasons, the pusher is actuated accidentally, it will always be possible to pull out the key which will not be blocked in its rotation necessary for its removal, by the lever (1), since the latter has the possibility of tilting relative to its transverse axis (15) ( Figure 5).
- this push button module can be adapted to - handcuffs already existing with two keys; a simple transformation makes it possible to replace the barrel with said module.
