Description




FIELD OF THE INVENTION




The present invention relates to a door lock device. More particularly, the present invention relates to a door lock device which is detached easily.




DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART




A conventional door lock device has a dead bolt and a latch bolt. However, the latch bolt will block a door while the door is opened. Furthermore, a doorknob is often protruded from an outer face of the door. Thus a child may bump into the doorknob accidentally. If a core of the conventional door lock device is broken, the whole door lock device should be replaced.




SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION




An object of the present invention is to provide a door lock device which can be disassembled easily. Thus a core of the door lock device can be replaced easily.




Another object of the present invention is to provide a door lock device which has a case frame having an upper hollow cylinder inserted through an upper through hole of a door and a lower hollow cylinder inserted through a lower through hole of the door so that an outer face of the case frame can contact an outer face of the door flatly.




Another object of the present invention is to provide a door lock device which has a drive mechanism having a rack to drive a latch bolt device so that the latch bolt device will not block a door while the door is opened.




Another object of the present invention is to provide a door lock device which has a torsion spring to force a first pressing plate contacting a case frame while the first pressing plate is not operated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS




Referring to

FIGS. 1

to


7


B, a door lock device is disposed on a door


1


. The door


1


has an upper through hole


11


and a lower through hole


12


. The door lock device includes a latch bolt device


6


disposed on the door


1


, a case frame


2


having an upper hollow cylinder


22


inserted through the upper through hole


11


and a lower hollow cylinder


23


inserted through the lower through hole


12


, a first pressing plate


8


disposed on the case frame


2


, and a drive mechanism


5


disposed in the upper hollow cylinder


22


.




The case frame


2


further has a recess


21


. A core


3


has a driven block


31


. A lock fastener device


4


has a lateral elastic block


42


and a blocking bar


41


.




The upper hollow cylinder


22


has an inner groove


222


, a lateral slot


221


, and a core seat


223


receiving the core


3


and the lock fastener device


4


. The core seat


223


has a bottom hole


224


.




The drive mechanism


5


has a rack


53


to drive the latch bolt device


6


, and a drive frame


51


having a gear set


52


to drive the rack


53


. The rack


53


has an upper groove


532


. The rack


53


passes through the lateral slot


221


to connect to the latch bolt device


6


. A pressing device


81


′ is disposed in the upper hollow cylinder


22


to connect to the drive frame


51


. The pressing device


81


′ has a protruded block


82


′.




The blocking bar


41


is inserted in the upper groove


532


. A compression spring S is disposed between the drive frame


51


and the rack


53


. A torsion spring S


1


is disposed between the core


3


and the lock fastener device


4


.




The first pressing plate


8


has an upper pressing portion


81


. The recess


21


receives the first pressing plate


8


.




A locking plate


71


covers the upper through hole


11


and the lower through hole


12


.




A decoration plate


72


is disposed on the locking plate


71


. The decoration plate


72


has an opening


73


. A second pressing plate


8


′ is disposed on the decoration plate


72


. The opening


73


receives the second pressing plate


8


′. An upper portion of the second pressing plate


8


′ is connected to the pressing device


81


′.




The compression spring S pushes the latch bolt device


6


to extend (as shown in FIG.


3


A). When the compression spring S is compressed, the latch bolt device


6


retracts (as shown in FIG.


3


B).




Referring to

FIG. 6B

41


is inserted in the upper groove


532


. The lateral elastic block


42


is inserted in the bottom hole


224


(as shown in FIG.


4


A). Since the blocking bar


41


is inserted in the upper groove


532


, the latch bolt device


6


locks the door


1


.




When the second pressing plate


8


′ is operated, the protruded block


82


′ contacts the lateral elastic block


42


to force the lateral elastic block


42


to retract (as shown in FIG.


5


). When the core


3


is rotated to contact the lateral elastic block


42


, the core


3


forces the lateral elastic block


42


to retract.




When the lateral elastic block


42


disengages from the bottom hole


224


, the torsion spring S


1


pushes the lateral elastic block


42


to move (as shown in FIG.


4


B).




Referring to

FIGS. 8 and 9

, a connection frame


92


is disposed between the upper portion of the second pressing plate


8


′ and the pressing device


81


′. A link


91


has a first end connected to the connection frame


92


and a second end connected to the second pressing plate


8


′. The user can press the second pressing plate


8


′ to produce a pressing force.
