As can be used by active or passive transponder, send the data to the lock or can be read through the lock. Furthermore, they also allow a flexible adaptation of the locking system by allowing permissions to open a lock, can be easily changed electronically in the lock and / or in the transponder.
  • the DE 38 42 569 C2 shows a locking device for locking and unlocking doors and windows with a locking bolt, which is electrically operated and manually via an emergency operation.
  • the locking bolt is acted upon by a spring in the locking position and cooperates with an electric motor by the locking bolt is held in the electromotive locking and unlocking under the action of the spring with a driven member of the electric motor in abutment.
  • this can also function like a snap, ie the locking position can be adjusted before the door is in the closed position.
  • the DE 100 21 839 A1 (Lehmannmaschinesgesellschaft mbH) relates to an electronic furniture lock with an electrically actuated locking device having a linear locking slide.
  • the device comprises a reversible DC motor operating on a buffer spring allowing the locking device and the furniture locking device to be operated independently of each other; the two devices interact only when the gate valve is sufficiently biased by the buffer spring and against the force of a retaining spring.
  • the spring force of Buffer spring is greater than the spring force of the retaining spring.
  • a locking pin acts by means of which a pawl can be blocked.
  • the EP 1 288 401 A1 (Schulte-Schlagbaum Aktiengesellschaft, Feig Electronic GmbH) relates to a lock, in particular a cabinet lock, with a rotary handle, through which a linearly displaceable latch can be operated.
  • the movement of the bolt can be blocked and released by an electromagnetically actuated tumbler.
  • a spring load is overcome. Both the advanced and the retracted latch position are secured against wear, and the advanced latch retracts automatically due to the spring tension (return spring) after release of the tumbler, whereby the lock is opened.
  • the tumbler is associated with a pivot lever which is coupled via a spring element to a bistable electromagnet such that the spring force loads the tumbler depending on the position of the armature of the electromagnet in one or the other direction.
  • the operating state of the pivot lever can be registered via an electronics associated with the lock.
  • the actuation of the magnet takes place by interrogation of a transponder, wherein the interrogation process can be initiated by operating a pressure switch arranged in the interior of the rotary handle. After unlocking the movement of the bolt is blocked again after a certain time interval.
  • the interrogator and the electromagnet are powered by batteries.
  • the US Pat. No. 6,318,138 B1 (K. Mathews, R. Kuenzel ) relates to a door lock, which is actuated by a portable remote control. It comprises a prestressed, linearly movable bolt, which can be locked by a locking pin operated electrically by the locking pin engages in a lateral recess of the bolt.
  • the lock is operated wirelessly, the lock is powered by a battery.
  • the actuation of the locking bolt is effected by an electric motor; whose drive shaft extends in a bore in the locking pin and has an external thread which cooperates with a rotatably mounted in the bore, but linearly displaceable nut.
  • the nut is held between two coil springs, which cooperate with support surfaces of the locking pin.
  • the bolt has sloping side surfaces and is therefore - in the unlocked state - automatically pressed when opening the door inward.
  • the FR 2 679 953 A1 (Ferco International) relates to a bar lock for a door or window with an operating rod and an electric locking device with a locking piece that can be displaced by an electric motor perpendicular to the direction of movement of the actuating rod and which cooperates with an opening of the actuating rod to lock them.
  • Between the locking piece and the electric motor resilient means are arranged, which can store energy to move the locking piece from the unlocked to the locked position or vice versa, so that a relation to the operation of the motor delayed movement of the locking piece is made possible.
  • the resilient means comprise two coil springs which are arranged coaxially or parallel to one another between a displaceable nut mounted on the drive shaft of the motor and the locking piece; one of the springs acts as a tension spring, the other spring as a compression spring.
  • the device may further comprise means for detecting the position of the actuating rod.
  • the EP 1 069 264 A1 refers to a motorized security lock for a security door of a vault or vault.
  • the lock comprises a linearly movable locking bolt and a motor for actuating the locking bolt, wherein the motor has only a single direction of rotation.
  • the drive axle of the engine acts on a circular disk; at the periphery thereof, one end of a lever is pivotally mounted, the other end of the lever cooperating with the bolt in the manner of a connecting rod. Further spring means are present, which ensure at a temporary blockage of the bolt that this is moved to release the blocking in the desired position.
  • the position of the circular disc is monitored by a magnetic sensor.
  • the known mechatronic locks often have a complicated mechanical structure and make intuitive operation of the lock difficult.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a mechatronic lock belonging to the technical field mentioned at the outset, which has a simple construction and which can be used and used extensively like conventional mechanical locks.
  • the locking element of the inventive lock is actuated by a first spring means, in particular via a coil spring, of the movable intermediate element, so that the spring means by pressing the drive with retracted latch is biased so that when advancing the bolt in its advanced position, the blocking element in the Profiling the bolt snaps and prevents retraction of the bolt.
  • the intermediate element comprises a linearly movable by actuation of the drive drive member and a second spring means on the drive member slidably mounted driven part, that the second spring means is tensioned by operating the drive when a release of the bolt by retracting the locking element, the blocking element in the profiling of the bolt is jammed.
  • the drive part and the output part of the intermediate element, the blocking element and the first and second spring means are arranged in the same axis.
  • the second spring means is formed by a compression spring, which is arranged on the side facing away from the blocking element of the drive part, wherein a force transmission in a first axial direction, which serves to unlock the lock, via the compression spring by an axial movement of the drive member relative to the driven part in the first direction to a pressurization of the Compressive spring leads, wherein the compression spring transmits the pressure on the driven part.
  • the drive member acts in a direction opposite to the first direction movement on a stopper ring, which transmits the movement directly to the driven part and the driven part presses on the first spring means, which thereby exerts a force on the locking element.
  • the output part is in turn coupled to the blocking element, which cooperates in the closed state of the bolt with the profiling of the bolt. If in the context of the opening process of the lock, the bolt is already withdrawn when the locking element is not completely withdrawn from the corresponding profiling, it may happen that the locking element is briefly jammed in the profiling. In this case, the actuator is moved by the operation of the electric drive and thereby tensioned the coil spring. Once the blocking element and thus the driven part is movable, z. B. because the user briefly reduces the force on the bolt, the tensioned second spring means pulls the driven part back, at the same time the locking element is withdrawn from the profiling. By the between the profiling and the locking element, which is coupled to the driven part, occurring clamping force of the electric drive, the locking element thus not immediately release. Only after the clamping force between the profiling and the blocking element decreases, the blockage is released.
  • the blocking means can be biased against the bolt. This makes it possible in connection with the profiling of the bolt to prepare a closing operation of the locking means regardless of the time of actuation of the bolt, resulting in a high energy efficiency of the electric drive and - allows a simple and fast locking of the lock - even at a later date without the drive being actuated needs.
  • the profiling can be performed as a bulge, incision or protruding, for example, as mounted on the latch nose.
  • the bolt Since the bolt is made linearly adjustable, it can be moved by a simple linear movement of the castle in a counterpart or withdrawn from this. This allows a simple construction of the lock and the cooperating counterpart.
  • the latch of the lock cooperates with a counterpart, which is fixedly attached, for example, to a door frame, a piece of furniture or another door.
  • Electrically actuated drives are basically known and available on the market. Sle based for example on electromagnets, micromotors or piezoceramic elements.
  • the drive is formed by an electric motor with a rotation axis.
  • the intermediate element is movable by turning the axis of rotation via a transmission.
  • An electric motor can be safely and precisely controlled by electronics and therefore offers itself as a drive for the intermediate element.
  • the rotation of the axis of rotation of the electric motor is transmitted by a gear on the intermediate element, which can be moved by this rotational movement.
  • Such a transmission allows in addition to a simple technical realization of the drive precise control of the intermediate element.
  • the drive part of the intermediate element is a threaded sleeve which interacts with a profiled output shaft of the transmission via a non-rotatably connected thereto external profiling.
  • the threaded sleeve is rotatably supported by its thread, so that the transmission of a rotational movement from the output shaft of the transmission to the outer profile of the threaded sleeve causes a linear displacement of the threaded sleeve.
  • the interaction between the output shaft and threaded sleeve can be realized for example by a toothing in the sense of a gear transmission.

  • the displaceable guide of the driven part in the threaded sleeve allows a resilient force transmission between the threaded sleeve, which is coupled to the drive, and the driven part.
  • This power transmission in a first direction which serves to unlock the lock, via the compression spring on the side facing away from the locking pin, which forms the second spring element.
  • a movement of the threaded sleeve relative to the driven part of the intermediate element in the first direction leads to a pressurization of the compression spring, which passes on the pressure on the driven part.

  • RFID Radio Frequency Identification
  • Active transponders are characterized in that they are able to receive signals, eg. B. RF signals or infrared signals to send, which can be received by the receiver of the lock.
  • Passive transponders include elements which are contactless, e.g. B. inductive or capacitive, can be read by the receiver of the lock when they are in the near field of the receiver. If the receiver transmits identification signals from the transponder which are assigned to an authorized user, the controller actuates the drive, so that the actuating element or the bolt or the coupling mechanism is released and the bolt can be withdrawn.
  • the blocking element can be unlocked, for example, by entering a code on a keypad or a simple push of a button and release the latch.
  • a lock according to the invention can be equipped with a transmitter which can emit an activation signal in order to activate the active transponder for the purpose of transmitting an identification signal. It is thus not necessary for the active transponder to emit signals itself permanently or in a short cadence in order to ensure, in the event that it approaches a lock, that this lock detects its presence and, if appropriate, makes it possible to open it. Only the receiver of the transponder must be in standby mode in order to be able to receive any activation signals of a lock. As a result, the power consumption of the transponder is massively reduced.

To reduce the power consumption, this transponder can be switched off manually; it may also include a motion sensor, so that after a certain period of time (eg, about 30 seconds) during which the transponder has not been moved, the transmission of the signal can be interrupted. After detecting a new movement, the transmission of the identification signal is resumed.

  • the operating element is designed as arranged in a rotational axis of the rotatable actuating element button.

Thanks to the first spring element, it is unimportant whether the latch is in the locked or in the open position at the time of the actuation of the electric drive. If the latch is in the open position and the blocking element, which is driven via the intermediate element by the electric drive, can not cooperate with the profiling of the bolt, the spring element exerts a tension on the blocking element.
