Title:
A MECHANISM FOR LOCKING LIDS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1995/027115
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A mechanism for locking a lid and a method for producing the mechanism. The lid comprises at least one lock plunger (10, 11) which is longitudinally displaceable between guides in cooperation with a driver (12). The displacement takes place against the action of elastic means (13, 14) which constitute a functional connection between the driver (12) and the respective plunger (10, 11), for guiding both the opening and the locking action of the mechanism. The respective elastic means (13, 14) forms a curve between the driver (12) and the respective plunger (10, 12) when in its locking position. This curve is obtained by pretension of the respective elastic means. The driver (12), the respective elastic means (13, 14) and the respective plunger (10, 11) are produced in one piece by injection moulding of a plastic material. The injection of plastic material to the moulding tool is performed centrically via the driver (12).
