  • Patent number: 11781346
    Abstract: A latch structure according to an embodiment includes a body, a locking body, a latch head, a plunger, and a latch stopper. The body is disposed inside a door. The locking body moves in response to an external operation. The latch head protrudes from the body to maintain the door in a closed position, and rotates when the locking body is spaced apart at least a predetermined distance. The plunger retracts into the body to prevent the latch head from rotating while the door is being closed. The latch stopper prevents the protruding latch head from retracting into the body when the plunger is maintained within the body.

  • Patent number: 9284750
    Abstract: Provided is a door mortise lock that may improve product safety and user convenience by enabling a latch bolt operates to be unlocked after a dead bolt of the door mortise lock completely operates. To this end, the door mortise lock includes: a dead bolt driving unit that operates a dead bolt; a latch bolt driving unit that unlocks a latch bolt when a time interval passes after the dead bolt is unlocked by the dead bolt driving unit; and a connection unit that is disposed between the dead bolt driving unit and the latch bolt driving unit, and selectively operates the dead bolt driving unit and the latch bolt driving unit so that the dead bolt and the latch bolt are sequentially unlocked with a time interval.

  • Publication number: 20150368940
    Abstract: Provided is a door-lock apparatus. In the door-lock apparatus which minimizes a loss of a driving force due to a lateral pressure of a thumb-turn gear and a thumb-turn rotating body or an assembling structure of the thumb-turn rotating body and also minimizes a load of a manual operation through the thumb-turn rotating body or the assembling structure of the thumb-turn rotating body, a groove serving as an idle section of a driving force is formed at the thumb-turn rotating body or the assembling structure of the thumb-turn rotating body, and when a lever (or knob) is manually rotated to lock or unlock a lockset of the door-lock apparatus, the manual rotation of the lever (or knob) for locking or unlocking of the lockset separately from a driving motor is smoothly realized with a small force, and also a load of the driving motor is minimized.
