  • Patent number: 7334440
    Abstract: A door lock mechanism includes a rotatable spindle, an invertable tubular adapter, a doorknob and an interchangeable lock core. The rotatable spindle has a first longitudinal assembling slot, a second longitudinal assembling slot and a pair of retaining notches. The invertable tubular adapter has a third longitudinal assembling slot, at least one positioning protrusion and an upraised engaging block. During assembly, the third longitudinal assembling slot of the invertable tubular adapter and one of the first longitudinal assembling slot and the second longitudinal assembling slot of the rotatable spindle are aligned to receive the interchangeable lock core. The upraised engaging block is engaged with one of the first longitudinal assembling slot and the second longitudinal assembling slot of the rotatable spindle. The positioning protrusion is positioned in one of the retaining notches of the rotatable spindle to prevent any radial movement of the invertable tubular adapter in the rotatable spindle.

  • Publication number: 20060237975
    Abstract: An anti-loosening structure is applied to a lock mounting plate of a door lock mechanism and a fixing member. The lock mounting plate includes an axial hole and at least one assembling hole having a fastener portion on a periphery thereof. Correspondingly, the fixing member includes a head portion, a shank portion and a detent portion formed on the head portion proximate to the shank portion. The fastener portion of the lock mounting plate is connected with the detent portion of the fixing member such that the engagement of the fixing member with the lock mounting plate is insured when the fixing member mounts the lock mounting plate to a door plank.

  • Publication number: 20050134060
    Abstract: A lock includes a handle assembly, a latch housing, and an adaptor plate. The handle assembly includes a rose liner and a spindle. The latch housing includes two positioning holes and an actuating wheel. A distance between two positioning holes of the rose liner is not equal to that between the positioning posts of the rose liner. The actuating wheel has a non-circular hole. The adaptor plate includes an axial hole, two positioning holes, two pegs and at least one leg. The spindle extends through the axial hole of the adaptor plate and the non-circular hole of the actuating wheel. The positioning posts of the rose liner respectively extend through the positioning holes of the adaptor plate. The pegs respectively extend through the positioning holes of the latch housing. The leg extends from the adaptor plate and abuts against the rose liner, thereby retaining the adaptor plate in place.

  • Patent number: 6202457
    Abstract: A lock core assembly is provided for a cylindrical lock. The cylindrical lock includes a knob having a lock core opening defined in an end face thereof and a spindle projected outward from the other end face thereof. A slot extends along the spindle and includes an extension extended into the other end face, thereby defining two stop wall portions on two opposite sides of the extension of the slot. The lock core assembly includes a barrel and a lock core rotatably mounted in the barrel. The barrel includes a protruded top portion with two lateral wings bearing against the stop wall portions of the extension of the slot.

  • Patent number: 6178795
    Abstract: A lockable structure for a big-handle lock includes a base plate for connection with a bottom plate and a cover plate. A lock core assembly is mounted between the base plate and the cover plate. A transmission assembly is mounted between the base plate and a bottom plate. The lock core of the lock core assembly and a turn-button of an inner handle may drive a locking bar around which a follower disc is mounted. The follower disc includes a cam for driving a control plate. The control plate includes a projection for releasably engaging with a groove of a press-plate. Thus, when a press member is pressed, the press-plate, the control plate, and the actuating plate are moved accordingly. The actuating plate includes a rack portion for meshing with a transmission wheel for turning a spindle, thereby controlling retraction of a latch bolt.
