The disclosure pertains to the field of child protection products, and specifically pertains to a handle lock fixed to a door body equipped with a door lock having lever handle to achieving an objective of locking or unlocking by rotating the lever handle of the door lock.
A door lock is a device for locking a door, which is widely used in households and public places. According to their structural principles, door locks can be divided into various types, one of which is lever handle lock. The lever handle lock has a lever handle that can be rotated in one or two directions to drive a lock core to work to achieve locking or unlocking. The lever handle lock is widely used for interior doors, such as bedroom doors. For families with children, it is necessary to prevent children from operating the lever handle lock to randomly open and close the interior doors, because such random operation may pinch fingers of the children or lock themselves.
In the prior art, there are some handle locks adapted to the lever handle lock, all of which achieve the purpose of protecting the safety of children by limiting rotation of the lever handle. For example, the Chinese invention patent application with No. CN109930904A discloses a door handle safety lock, which locks or unlocks a lever handle lock by rotating a limiting support arm and making the same keep in a locked or unlocked state, where a rotation axis of the limiting support arm is vertical and parallel to its fixed bottom surface, so that the limiting support arm is in a locked state when it is perpendicular to a door body, and is in an unlocked state when it is horizontally parallel to the door body. For another example, the Chinese utility model patent with No. CN213627046U discloses a handle protection lock. By sliding a lock body in a length direction of a lock seat, the protection lock makes the lock body located on a rotating path of the lever handle to prevent the lever handle from rotation or being away from the rotating path of the lever handle to unlock by sliding the lock body in the length direction of the lock seat. Alternatively, the South Korean patent with No. KR102347158B1 discloses a safety locking device for door handle, which is opened or closed by rotating an upper or lower lock piece around a horizontal pivot axis, so that the lever handle is locked or allowed to be rotated for locking or unlocking.
The disclosure aims to provide a handle lock with a novel rotation mode of lock bars and being in good fit with a lever handle in locked and unlocked states.
As a first aspect of the disclosure, a handle lock is provided, including:
A first end of the lock bar rotates around the pivot axis as a rotating shaft to switch between a locked state and an unlocked state.

Specific implementation structure of the disclosure will be described in detail below in conjunction with particular embodiments.
A handle lock used to be fixedly assembled on a surface of a door body to lock a door lock with a lever handle on the door body, so that the handle cannot rotate freely to lock or unlock.
The handle lock includes a lock seat 10 and lock bars 20 movably arranged on the lock seat 10, the bottom surface of the lock seat 10 is formed as a fixed surface 101, pivoting surfaces 130 are formed between the lock bars 20 and the lock seat 10, and the pivoting surfaces 130 and the fixed surface 101 are arranged at an angle of 45°. In order to form the pivoting surfaces 130, first pivoting surfaces 131 and second pivoting surfaces 132 are respectively formed on the lock seat 10 and the lock bars 20, the two surfaces are propped against each other, so that the lock bars 20 are pivotally rotated relative to the lock seat 10 in a way of being in contact with each other, and the axis of rotation is a pivot axis 110 perpendicular to the pivoting surfaces 130.
In order to realize that the lock bars 20 are arranged to rotate around the pivot axis 110 relative to the lock seat 10, first rotatable members 11 are arranged on the lock seat 10, each lock bar 20 is provided with a second rotatable member 12, each first rotatable member 11 is a cylindrical cavity, the second rotatable member 12 is a cylindrical member, and the cylindrical member is inserted into the cylindrical cavity, so that the lock bars 20 can be rotationally disposed. Apparently, the axis of the cylindrical member is the pivot axis 110. Further, a connecting hole 121 is also formed on the second rotatable member 12, and a fixing screw (not shown in the drawings) is in threaded fit with the connecting hole 121 to enable the lock seat 10 to be connected to the lock bars 20 in an extending direction of the pivot axis 110, so that the lock seat and the lock bars are combined in such a way that they can only rotate relative to each other but cannot be separated, and the fixing screw is formed as a connecting member, so that the lock seat 10 and the lock bars 20 form a relative pivot connection.
The rotation of a first end of the lock bars 20 around the pivot axis 110 as a rotating shaft can make the lock bars switch between a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the lock bars 20 are located on an unlocking path of the lever handle of the door lock to prevent the lever handle of the door lock from being rotated and unlocked, thereby achieving an objective of locking the door lock; in the unlocked state, the lock bars 20 rotate around the pivot axis 110 to deviate from the above locking position and to allow free rotation of the lever handle to unlock, thereby releasing the above locking. In the locked state, the lock bars 20 are arranged away from the fixed surface 101, and when the lock bars 20 rotate around the pivot axis 110 leftwards or rightwards to enable a second end of the lock bars 20 to approach the plane where the fixed surface 101 is located, thereby forming the unlocked state.
As shown in
In this embodiment, lock bars 20 are arranged at the upper and lower ends of the lock seat 10, respectively, so that a locking cavity 100 is formed between the two lock bars 20 when they are in the locked state, thereby the lever handle of the door handle is locked therein.
In order to improve the safety of the handle lock, make the lock bars 20 stay in the locked state to form a firm locking relationship, and keep the rotation of the lock bars 20 locked at least at the position, first limiting members 14 are arranged on the lock seat 10, second limiting members 15 are correspondingly arranged on the lock bars 20, the first limiting members 14 are the locking cavities, and the second limiting members 15 are lock tongues arranged in a mode of retractable movements. When the lock tongues are inserted in the locking cavities, the rotation of the locking bars 20 can be locked, so that the handle lock keeps in the locked state, and will not be unlocked due to a greater operation force or its rotation caused by touching the lock bars 20, and the like, and the safety of the handle lock is thus improved.
In this embodiment, the locking cavities used as the first limiting members 14 are composed of two, which are respectively arranged on two sides of each cylindrical cavity as the first rotatable member 11, so that the rotation of the lock bars 20 are locked separately in the locked state and the unlocked state, the handle lock can be kept in the locking and unlocked states from being accidentally unlocking or locking, and the safety thereof is further improved.
As shown in
In this embodiment, limiting cavities 222 are formed on the upper and lower sides of the lock bar connecting member 22, respectively, two second limiting members 15 are disposed and located at the upper and lower sides of the lock bar connecting member 22, respectively; and a first operating cavity 221 is formed in the lock bar connecting member 22, so that the lock tongue member 23 and the unlocking member 24 can respectively move in the axial and radial directions in the first operating cavity.
Of course, in other embodiments, the unlocking members 24 and the lock tongue members 23 are directly fixed or integrally formed, so that the lock tongue members 23 can also be driven to retractably move in the axial direction by axial retractable movements of the unlocking members 24.
In this embodiment, a spring seat 233 is further arranged at the rear end of each lock tongue member 23, a reset spring (not shown in the drawings) is fixed on the spring seat 233 and is butted with the inner wall of the first operating cavity 221, so that the lock tongue member 23 maintains an extending trend relative to the lock bar connecting member 22, thereby keeping the locked state.
A second operating cavity 231 is formed on each lock tongue member 23, a first guiding column 241 is disposed on each unlocking member 24, the third guiding part 232 is arranged inside the second operating cavity 231, the second guiding part 242 is formed on the first guiding column 241, and the first guiding column 241 is inserted into the second operating cavity 231 to fit in with each other in a guiding mode. A plurality of second guiding columns 243 are further arranged on each unlocking member 24, a guiding cavity 244 is formed among second guiding columns 243, and at least a portion of the lock tongue member 23 fits in the guiding cavity 244, so that the unlocking member 24 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the lock tongue member 23.
The working process of the handle lock in this embodiment is as follows:
This embodiment provides a handle lock, the main structure of which is the same as that of Embodiment 1, but differs in that: in this embodiment, each second limiting member 15 (which is arranged on the lock tongue member 23 in Embodiment 1) is actuated by the lock tongue member 23 to disengage from the first limiting members 14, so as to release the rotational locking of the lock bars 20.
As shown in
One first limiting member 14 is arranged on the front end of each lock bar 20, the lock tongue member 23 is also arranged in a mode of retractable movements in the radial direction, a top member 16 is formed at the front end thereof, and the top member 16 is arranged inside each first limiting members 14 in a mode of retractable movements; further, a first guiding part 151 is disposed on each limiting member 15, a fourth guiding part 161 is arranged on each top member 16, and at least one of the first guiding part 151 or the fourth guiding part 161 is an inclined surface or a curved surface for forming a guiding fit in a way that the two are butted up against each other. When the top member 16 is displaced in the axial direction of the lock bars 20 together with the lock tongue member 23, the guiding fit between the first guiding part 151 and the fourth guiding part 161 makes the second limiting members 15 displaced in the radial direction of the lock bars 20, so that the lock bars are disengaged from the first limiting members 14 to release the rotational locking of the lock bars 20 relative to the lock seat 10, and the lock bars 20 can rotate around the pivot axis 110 to switch between a locked state and an unlocked state.
In this embodiment, the first guiding part 151 and the fourth guiding part 161 are both inclined surfaces, and the axial retractable movements of the lock tongue member 23 along the lock bars 20 are realized through the displacement caused by pressing the unlocking members 24 in the radial direction.
This embodiment provides a handle lock, the main structure of which is the same as that of Embodiment 2, but differs in that: in this embodiment, axial retractable movements of the lock tongue member 23 along the lock bars 20 are directly operated, rather than being driven by guiding fit of the displacement of the unlocking member 24 in the radial direction.
As shown in
In this embodiment, the spring seat 233 is arranged on the outer side of the lock bar connecting member 22, the reset spring (not shown in the drawings) is fixed on the spring seat 233 and acts between the spring seat 233 and the lock tongue member 23, so that the top member 16 is kept away from the first limiting members 14, only when being pressed, the top member 16 can extend into the first limiting members 14, so that the second limiting members 15 are pushed out, and the second limiting members 15 are then disengaged from the first limiting members 14 to release the rotational locking of the lock bars 20.
